dc.description.abstract | This work investigates the synthesis and the corrosion inhibitor efficiency ceria nanoparticles may exert on steel reinforcement in an alkaline solution of saturated Ca(OH)2 + 0.5 M CaCl2 up to 50°C. The corrosion mechanisms are thoroughly investigated by electrochemical and various characterization techniques. The electrochemical results show that ceria nanoparticles act as an anodic inhibitor and provide maximum inhibition efficiency (80%) at a concentration of 800 ppm. The resulting surface is smooth and free from corrosion products due to the formation of a physically adsorbed film according to the thermodynamic calculations. | |
