Clarification of Electrodeposition Mechanism and Selection of Best Electrodeposition Conditions to Reinforced Concrete on Land

Abstract

The objectives of this study are to clarify the electrodeposition mechanism and to select the best electrodeposition conditions for closing cracks of reinforced concrete on land. The contents of this paper are as follows; first, with regard to electrodeposition mechanism, two factors, namely chemical and electrochemical factors were investigated. Next, considering the above mechanism, the best conditions leading to crack closure and carbonate resistance in reinforced concrete on land were selected. The results of this study indicated that the effects of the above factors were summarized and the best electrodeposition conditions were selected.
