Abstract:The application of epoxy coated rebar (ECR) is an effective method to improve the durability of reinforcement in chloride environment. However, the coating defects caused in construction will significantly decrease its corrosion resistance to chloride. Herein, the corrosion behaviors of different defects rate in ECR under chloride attack in South China are investigated. The results indicate that the corrosion of ECR is due to the coating defects, the corrosion potentials of defected-ECR are shifted to negative… Show more
