Abstract:It well known the advantages of using SiO 2 nanoparticles as additive for improving the mechanical properties of concrete structure and reducing the liberation of CO 2 gas to the atmosphere. This research investigate the effect of adding SiO 2 nanoparticles (12 nm; 1, 3 and 5% by weight) to artificial concrete solution (2gCa (OH) 2 , 0.0225 g KOH and 0.008 g NaOH in one litter of distilled water) on the corrosion of steel rebar against seawater environment (3.5% NaCl) at four temperatures; 20, 30, 40 and 50°C.… Show more
