The use of pumice as a coating for the reinforcement of steel against corrosion and concrete abrasions
Source abstract
Abstract
This study presents the results of corrosion resistance for pumice collected from pyroclastic exposure in the Van, Kayseri, Nevsehir and Osmaniye regions of Turkey. The corrosion resistance of reinforced steel (RS) and mass losses of concrete specimens were investigated. The specimens were exposed to 5 and 10% sodium sulphate solutions. Reinforced steel mass losses and compressive strengths of concrete were measured. Improvements of the compressive strength and corrosion resistance were observed for specimens with the increasing layers of coating. The corrosion rates of pumice coated specimens were lower than the control specimens. There was a close relationship between type of pumice coating and reinforcement corrosion. Corrosion ratio decreased with increasing amounts of reactive SiO2. The alkalinity of the concrete, permeability of the concrete cover, the quality of the concrete and the corrosion environment were crucial factors in influencing the effectiveness of the concrete cover for corrosion protection of reinforced steel. All pumice concretes offered excellent resistance to corrosion, where Osmaniye pumice (OP) best increased corrosion resistance of reinforced steel.
