Corrosion

  • Affects

– Roads, bridges, buildings, airplanes, machinery, automobiles

  • $2.2 trillion -> corrosion costs worldwide
  • $660 billion -> possible savings
  • 3.3% US GDP -> corrosion mitigation
  • Zinc provides the best corrosion protection

The USA Bridge Problem

  • 604000 bridges across the USA

– 48% state owned

  • 2/3 built 26+ years ago
  • 50-80% maintenance funds for bridge decks
  • 25-30% of corrosion could be eliminated

– If proper materials are used and maintained

Corrosion of Black Bar

  • In concrete, steel corrosion can cause major

deterioration

  • Corrosive elements, diffuse through the

concrete matrix to reach rebar

Zinc in Concrete

  • Passivated by formation of a layer of

adherent crystals

– Calcium Hydroxyzincate (CHZ)

  • Reaction begins upon contact with wet

cement solution

– Ceases once concrete hardens

  • Surface film stabilizes the zinc

– Second level of barrier protection

Migration of Zinc

Partial dissolution of the galvanized coating and zinc corrosion product migrating into the cement matrix. Migration of zinc-rich corrosion products away from the bar/matrix interface and well into the cement matrix. 1000x 100x

Zinc Protection

  • Passivation Reaction Product (CHZ)
  • Barrier Coating
  • Cathodic Protection
  • High Chloride Threshold (2-4x black steel)
  • Corrosion Product Migration

– Concrete Matrix Densification – No stress generated at rebar surface

  • Low pH Tolerance (Carbonation protection)

Improved Corrosion Resistance

Coating Type Average Depth of Loss to Passivation (um) Annealed (Intermettalic) 1.18 Pure Zinc 0.45

  • Pure Zinc corrodes at a slower rate than Iron-

Zinc Intermettalic

  • Less zinc consumed to form CHZ passivation

layer

  • Less zinc required to provide corrosion

resistance

Zn (eta) phase current density = 2.38 A/cm2 ( ______ line) Zeta (Zn-Fe) phase current density = 3.98 A/cm2 ( _ _ _ line) Therefore Zn 1.7 times more corrosion resistant than Zn-Fe in the concrete corrosion cell pH=13 NaOH

How does the 50 µm In-Line coating corrosion resistance compare to the 85μm General Galvanized coating? Results of potentiodynamic polarization tests

Continuous Galvanized Rebar

  • Durable, Flexible Coating

– Fabricate after coating

  • Pure Zinc

– Improved corrosion resistence

  • Low cost

– Less material, shipping, weight, etc.
