Electrochemical Performance of Steel Embedded in CSA Concrete and Its Interfacial Microstructure by Meimei Song, Qiu Li, Ke Wu, Yihua Dou

“…In this project, scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) on polished samples was employed to provide the interfacial characterization of steel reinforced CSA concrete and study the relationship of interfacial quality and corrosion resistance of the embedded steel. The galvanostatic polarization behavior indicates that the steel embedded in CSA concrete remains passive for 28 days in absence of Cl− ions and carbonation. …”
