Sustainable Corrosion Inhibitors for Concrete

Green chemistry and sustainability encourages the significance of preserving the nature and individual’s wellbeing in cost effective way that intends to avoid toxicity and reduction of wastes. Therefore, the implication of green corrosion inhibitors in the field of concrete protection has also received immense attention these days. Indeed, the usage of such inhibitors is a well-known strategy for producing high performance concrete. In view of this, the present chapter discusses the research in the area of sustainable corrosion inhibitors for concrete assurance used commercially in various industries. It also highlights the concrete corrosion mechanisms and its protective measures, recent advances in this field.
