Abstract

This study is to acquire the confirmation data regarding the cathodic protection characteristics for reinforced concrete beam specimens with zinc sacrificial anode in 15% salt water. It was possible to confirm the performance of sacrificial anode cathodic protection system by the measurement of potentials and concrete resistivity for the reinforced concrete beam specimens applied with zinc sacrificial anode in mortar topside of the concrete specimens. The corrosion potential and cathodic protection potential were measured by potentiostat, and 4 hour depolarization potentials were measured after disconnecting with anode for 4 hours. It was confirmed that the cathodic protection for reinforced concrete structures by means of zinc sacrificial anode were very effective corrosion protection technology in marine environments.
