Effect of red mud addition on the corrosion parameters of reinforced concrete evaluated by electrochemical methods

Abstract: Red mud, the main waste generated in aluminum and alumina production from bauxite ore by the Bayer process, is considered "hazardous" due to its high pH. The high pH also provides greater protection of rebars, which is reflected in the low corrosion potential and high electrical resistivity (filler effect) of concrete. The corrosion potential was monitored by electrochemical measurements and the electrical resistivity was evaluated using sensors embedded in concrete test specimens. The results showed that the … Show more

“…An outer area of about 825cm² of the concrete samples immersed in 3.5% NaCl solution was exposed to direct chloride attack and their upper parts (~ 10 cm) were above the salt water level as shown in Fig.3. The corrosion potential is basically an indirect indication of the corroded state of the concrete embedded steel rebars and being verified by many previous chlorideactivated accelerated corrosion tests [13]. In our case the electrochemical cell used for corrosion potential measurements was composed of the working electrodes (i.e.…”

“…Regarding the durability of structures, the entry of chlorides in concrete, which brings as a consequence the serious problems of corrosion of steel reinforcement, occurs essentially by three transport mechanisms: absorption, permeability and diffusion, occurring solely or in combination [13][14][15][16][17]. There is still a fourth mechanism of transport, the ionic migration [13,14,[18][19][20], motivated by applied external electric fields, however this mechanism is rather unlikely in service situations, but it is present on accelerated methods of chloride penetration or to determine the apparent diffusion coefficient in migration tests [21]. Diffusion is then considered as the main transport process of chlorine ions into the concrete.…”

“…Electrical resistivity is a property widely used to monitor concrete structures because it is a nondestructive method and allows for external monitoring by means of embedded electrodes. This property is fundamentally related to fluid permeability and to ion diffusivity through concrete pores 22 . (150 × 150 × 150 mm 3 ) concrete cube reinforced with three (8 mm diameter) longitudinal wires.…”
