Mechanisms and kinetic model for steel corrosion in unsaturated cementitious materials

Abstract Considering the complex coupling of steel corrosion in partially saturated concrete filled with water, the quantitative description of control mechanisms is still under debate. This work provides new experimental evidence supporting that diffusion control (relative diffusion coefficient) is...
