THE EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH ON POLARIZATION OF TENSIONED REBARS COATED WITH SULPHUR POLYMER COMPOSITE
Abstract
In order to demonstrate the suitability of sulphur polymer composites for the surface protection of concrete steel experimental research was carried out in the Institute of Building Engineering at Wroc³aw University of Technology. The research included: the experimental determination of sulphur polymer composite composition and manufacturing conditions, tests of the composite’s selected physical, chemical and mechanical properties, tests of its tangent and normal adhesion to plain and ribbed reinforcing bars and to standard cement mortar and concrete, the determination of the mass decrement resulting from storage in aqueous solutions of acids, hydroxides and salts and in water and the polarization investigation of rebars subjected to tension in a solution modelling the pore liquid in carbonated concrete contaminated with chlorine ions.
