Rhizophora mangle L. effects on steel-reinforced concrete in 0.5 M H2SO4: Implications for corrosion-degradation of wind-energy structures in industrial environments.
This paper studies corrosion inhibition and compressive-strength effect of Rhizophora mangle L. leaf-extract on steel-reinforced concrete in 0.5 M H2SO4, simulating industrial environment of wind-energy installations. Electrochemical monitoring and load-bearing/compressive-strength testing were employed for different concentrations of the leaf-extract admixed in duplicated samples of...
