The effects of sample preparation procedures and exposure environments on the electrochemical behavior of steel in concerete have been investigated. The results showed that the electrochemical potential measured in distilled water was about 0.4 V higher than that in artificial sea water. Whereas, the type of cement used, the mixing water and the curing procedure had no discernible effects on the electrochemical potential measurements both in distilled water and in artificial sea water. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was employed and the results showed that the electrochemical reaction mechanisms differed appreciably for the specimens immersed in artificial sea water for 3 and 5 months, respectively. |
