The Effect of Chloride Content on Corrosion of Steel Fibers in Chloride-Contaminated Simulated Concrete Pore Solutions

The chloride content is a critical factor influencing the corrosion of steel fibers in concrete. This study focused on the corrosion behaviors of steel fibers exposed to simulated concrete pore solutions with different chloride contents. The corrosion rates of the steel fibers were calculated based on the changes in the diameter and ultimate tensile load. The electrochemical parameters for the corrosion of the steel fibers were continuously monitored for 62 days. In addition, the surface micromorphologies of the corroded steel fibers were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that based on the change in the diameter, the corrosion rate of the steel fibers increased almost linearly when the NaCl content in the simulated solution increased from 2% to 5%. However, based on the variation of the ultimate tensile load, the corrosion ratio of the steel fibers increased linearly with the increase in the exposure time when the NaCl content was less than 3%, while it increased exponentially when the NaCl content exceeded 3%. According to the open circuit potential, Tafel polarization curves, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the corrosion tendency and corrosion rates of the steel fibers exposed to the simulated solutions increased significantly when the NaCl content increased from 2% to 5%. Additionally, the corrosion damage on the surfaces of the steel fibers increased notably, and after 180 days of exposure to the simulated solution with 5% NaCl, the steel fiber was almost broken. These findings will help to understand the durability of SFRC in a chloride environment.
