Corrosion inhibitors in concrete: Part III. Effect on time to chloride-induced corrosion initiation and subsequent corrosion rates of steel in mortar
The effectiveness of four commercially available corrosion inhibitors for use in cement-based materials was assessed in mortar exposed to chloride solution. Although, in a parallel study of steel in synthetic pore solutions, the inhibitors were observed to be ineffective in increasing the chloride threshold value of reinforcing steel exposed to chlorides, in the present study all inhibitors were found to delay the onset of corrosion, but to differing degrees. Moreover, in agreement with the parallel study, the inhibitors were found to have little detectable effect on the corrosion rate of the embedded steel once active corrosion had been initiated. This study confirmed that calcium nitrite inhibitors delay the onset of corrosion but raises questions regarding the mechanism of inhibition.
