| Summary: | The influence of phosphate coatings on the corrosion behavior of steel reinforcement in a chloride-containing environment was studied to determine the need for additional protection against corrosion. The main indicators of the corrosion rate of steel reinforcement with phosphate coatings in chloride-containing solutions were determined, confirming the high protective properties of these coatings. It was found that the corrosion rate of steel reinforcement protected by phosphate coatings is reduced by 3 times. The processes of electrochemical corrosion of steel reinforcement of strength class A500S from steel grade St3ps in concrete under the influence of aggressive environments containing chloride ions (2 % MgCl2 solution and HCl solution with pH = 5) were studied. The kinetics of the corrosion process of steel reinforcement with and without protective phosphate coatings in solutions of various compositions has been studied. The change in mass of steel reinforcement protected by phosphate coatings is 3-4 times less than that of samples without coating. The surface potential of steel reinforcement with phosphate films changes significantly more slowly than that of unprotected samples. |
