Corrosion protection of steel with DMEA-based organic inhibitor

The aim of this study is to examine the protective effect of N,N′dimethylaminoethanol (DMEA – organic corrosion inhibitor) against rebar corrosion in the presence of chloride ions. The inhibiting properties of DMEA based corrosion inhibitor were evaluated in artificial concrete pore solution and in cement mortar specimens. The electrochemical measurements were performed using synthetic concrete pore solution which was contaminated with chloride...
