Abstract
Corrosion of steel reinforcement concrete structures is monitored through the surface mounting techniques using liquid based reference electrodes. Due to the limited usage of liquid based reference electrodes solid state reference electrode are introduced recently. In the present study, we fabricated and characterized Mn3O4 based pellet electrode for corrosion assessment of steel rebar in high alkaline medium through electrochemical methods and the results are compared with conventional saturated calomel reference electrode (SCE). The results indicate that the fabricated pellet electrode exhibits better characteristics suitable for high alkaline concrete environment and differentiate the passive and active status of steel rebar.
