摘要

The effects of different Nb contents on the phase compositions and electrochemical properties of corrosion product films of high-strength rebars in simulated marine solution were studied by corrosion tests, surface analyses (FE-SEM, XRD, XPS), and electrochemical tests (EIS, DPP). The results showed that after different corrosion time, the corrosion product films of three rebars were mainly composed of α-FeOOH, γ-FeOOH, Fe3O4, and Fe2O3. With the increase of corrosion time and Nb content, the unstable phase γ-FeOOH in the corrosion product films of Nb-modified high-strength rebars was transformed into the stable phase α-FeOOH, which promoted the formation of Nb2+ (NbO) and Nb4+ (NbO2) in the corrosion product films, and the Nb2+ (NbO) was gradually oxidized to Nb4+ (NbO2). The existence of Nb oxides was beneficial to repair and fill the surface defects of corrosion product films and greatly promoted the formation of stable phase α-FeOOH, which greatly improved the corrosion potential and α/γ ratio of corrosion product films, thus improving the compactness of corrosion product films and reducing the corrosion rate of rebars.
