Corrosion of steel reinforcement is one of the biggest problems facing all countries in the world like bridges in the beach area and marine constructions which lead to study these problems and apply some economical solutions. According to the high cost of repair for these constructions, were studied the effect of using kind of chemical compounds sodium nitrite(NaNO2) and sodium silicate(Na2SiO3) as corrosion inhibitors admixture for steel bars that immersed partially in electrolyte solution (water + sodium chloride in 3% conc.) (Approximately similar to the concentration of salt in sea water). The two inhibitors above added each one to the electrolyte solution at concentrations (0.5%, 1% and 2%) for both of them.      The results were  corrosion rate for steel sample that's immersed partially in salt solution was higher than corrosion rate of steel bar that's immersed partially in electrolyte solution with inhibitors  also the two corrosion inhibitors (sodium nitrite and sodium silicate) that added to the electrolyte solution were working successfully to prevent and inhibit the corrosion by using weight loss technique with best percent of 0.5% sodium nitrite ( efficiency 94.1% ) and best percent of 2% sodium silicate ( efficiency 92.5%).

The existing studies of the corrosion of reinforced concrete have mainly focused on the interface area and chemical ion erosion, ignoring the specific service environment of the reinforced concrete. In this study, the effect of freeze-thaw damage was investigated via corrosion experiments under different freeze-thaw cycle conditions. Steel reinforcement corrosion mass, ultimate pull-out force, corrosion rate, and bond slippage were chosen as characteristic parameters in the experiments, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was used to explain the mechanism of action of freeze-thaw damage on corrosion. The results showed that, under identical corrosion conditions, the mass of steel reinforcement corrosion and corrosion rate increased by 39.6% and 39.7% when comparing 200 freeze-thaw cycles to 0 cycles, respectively. The ultimate pull-out force and bond slippage after 200 freeze-thaw cycles decreased by 73% and 31%, respectively, compared with 0 freeze-thaw cycles. In addition, SEM analysis indicated that microstructure damage caused by freeze-thaw cycles accelerated the corrosion reaction and decreased cementitious properties, leading to decreasing ultimate pull-out force and bond slippage. The effect of freeze-thaw cycles and steel reinforcement corrosion on the macro mechanical properties of concrete is not a simple superposition.

This work deals with the study of corrosion behaviour for zinc in (HNO3+ H2SO4) binary acid mixture containing ethanolamines. Corrosion rate increases with concentration of acid and temperature. At constant acid concentration, the inhibition efficiency of ethanolamines increases with the inhibitor concentration. Value of ΔGa increases and inhibition decreases with temperature. The mode of inhibition action appears to be chemisorption.

This paper presents results of an ongoing research of the effect of 1D and 2D chloride ingress on concrete resistivity and corrosion rate of steel reinforcement. 12 concrete beams made with concrete of binder blend PC(50)/GGBS(50), w/b = 0.40, 10 mm steel reinforcement rods at concrete cover of 20 mm were used in this laboratory based experiment. The steel reinforcement bars were placed at the middle or at an orthogonal corner of the concrete beams subjected to 1D and 2D chloride ingress respectively. A single crack was induced using 3-point bending on one-half of the beams. The beams were exposed to a repeated cycle of 2 weeks ponding in 5% NaCl and then air drying in ambient laboratory condition for 2 weeks. The corrosion rate of both cracked and uncracked specimens exposed to 2D chloride ingress was significantly higher than that of beams exposed to 1D chloride ingress. The uncracked specimens had lower concrete resistivity values compared to the cracked specimens even though higher corrosion rates were measured.

Purpose This paper aims to introduce a method to reduce corrosion caused by acidic-oxidized polymer degradant through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Design/methodology/approach This paper introduced a method to reduce corrosion caused by acidic-oxidized polymer degradant through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Findings The experimental results indicated that the influence of pre-corrosion status on corrosion rate and effectiveness of corrosion inhibitor are significant. The corrosion inhibitors in both injection stage inhibited the corrosion process by preventing the contact of corrosive medium and steel surface through formation of a protective film on the surface of N80 steel. The corrosion rate of polymer degradant can be reduced to 0.63 g/m 2 h through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Originality/value This result will increase the production of polymer injection plugging wells through expanding the application of acidic-oxidized polymer degradant.

Corrosion of steel constructions due to the affection of aggressive agents is one of the principal problems affecting reinforced concrete constructions. In critical cases, this phenomenon may cause static destabilisation of the construction and as a result, it is necessary to protect constructions using primary and secondary protection which significantly decreases this risk. This paper addresses the options for evaluating various types of protective anti-corrosion systems which use progressive corrosion inhibitor technology in a laboratory environment. Corrosion inhibitors efficiently slow down the course of corrosive processes on steel reinforcement and prolong the service life of building constructions. The rate of efficiency can be verified with high information capability in the laboratory by a series of testing methods.


Due to a growing awareness of environmental protection, an interest in replacing toxic corrosion inhibitors with more environmentally acceptable alternatives is also growing. Chromates, as one of the best inhibitors, have been eliminated as technically viable inhibitors because of their high toxicity, and the use of polyphosphates has diminished as they disrupt the balance in the Plantae kingdom. The emphasis is on exploration and testing of organic compounds that can be obtained from plant material. Rosemary extracts (leaf and flower) have been shown to have inhibitory activity on iron corrosion in 3% NaCl and seawater. Corrosion rate values ​​show that rosemary flower extracts are better inhibitors of corrosion than the leaf extracts and that the maximum inhibitory protection has not been achieved in the range of tested concentrations.

Corrosion is a chemical phenomenon that often occurs in iron materials that are exposed or immersed in a medium either liquid or air. As a result of this corrosion is fragility and damage to the object so that the object cannot function properly. The purpose of this research is to prevent or slow down the occurrence of corrosion by adding chemicals called corrosion inhibitors which work by forming a protective layer on the surface of objects in the form of metal or iron.In this study, inhibitors were used in the form of NaOH solution with variations in the concentration of 0.1; 0.5; 1; 1.25; 1,5; 5 and 10 N are dissolved in water media and the iron immersion process is carried out at temperatures of 40, 45, and 50 °C. Soaked iron bars are measured for surface area and volume as well as weighing before and after the immersion process so that the corrosion rate is obtained with various variables used. Based on the research results obtained corrosion rate increases with increasing temperature and the addition of NaOH concentration inhibitors. Optimal temperature and concentration to inhibit the rate of iron corrosion is at an immersion temperature of 45 ° C and a concentration of 0.1 N NaOH with a corrosion rate of 0.084875 mpy.
