Effect of zinc oxide on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel embedded in concrete in 3.5% NaCl solution
The effect of zinc oxide on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel embedded in concrete in 3.5% sodium chloride solution was investigated using potential measurement, pH and gravimetric methods. The experiments were performed using zinc oxide as the inhibitor in 3.5% NaCl solution. From 200g of ZnO powder, and using distilled water, 25, 50, 75, and 100% zinc oxide inhibitor concentrations were...
