A study of the elastic moduli and chemical composition of corrosion product naturally-generated due to chlorides through nano-indentation and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry (EDS)
conference paper
An important input parameter for numerical models that simulate cracking of the concrete cover due to reinforcement corrosion is the Elastic modulus of corrosion product (Ecp). Despite its relevance, Ecp is subject of significant variations according to the values reported in the literature, which vary from less than 100 MPa up to 360 GPa. Furthermore, Ecp values proposed in most of the present literature are representative of the corrosion product generated by anodic accelerated corrosion or extracted from the steel/concrete interface (SCI), which might differ from that formed in real corroding structures.
