Title: DEVELOPMENT OF METALLIC COATINGS FOR CORROSION PROTECTION OF STEEL REBARS
Accession Number: 00636627
Record Type: Monograph
Abstract: A study is described which shows the feasibility of applying a silicon-based diffusion coating on steel rebars, wires and fibers in fluidized beds of silicon particles. Compact and homogeneous silicon and silicon-titanium diffusion coatings were deposited on steel rebars, wires, and fibers by using a novel chemical vapor deposition technique. Selected coated samples were tested for corrosion resistance by chemical and electrochemical techniques. In comparison to fusion-bonded epoxy coatings, or galvanized bars, the silicon coated samples indicate a higher corrosion resistance in aggressive chloride environments. It was also found that the less expensive silicon-coated samples resist scratching.
