Nanoprecorr

The main problem of reinforced concrete is the corrosion of the reinforcements embedded in it. The triggering of corrosion may be due either to the carbonation of the concrete, which generally induces widespread corrosion, or to the penetration of chlorides from de-icing salts or marine environments (which produce pitting and localized attacks) that tend to destroy the passivating layer. Due to this, it is extremely important to develop preventive methods that prevent the appearance of these processes... Download PDF
