A comparison of pitting susceptibility of Q235 and HRB335 carbon steels used for reinforced concrete

The phase structure and the pitting susceptibility of two carbon steels, Q235 and HRB335, used for reinforced concrete, are investigated by phase observation, polarization curve measure-ments, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and Mott-Schottky analysis. It is found that Q235 is ferrite and HR...
