  • Passivation and Corrosion of Black Rebar with Mill Scale

    by Xinying Lu ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The passivation and corrosion of metal are significantly affected by its surface state and chemical characteristics. In practical engineering, the reinforcement is with mill scale or rust stains. Its passivation and corrosion are obviously different from the descaled one. This book briefly discusses the pseudo-passivation behavior and corrosion mechanisms of hot-rolled rebars with mill scale and ... Read more
