Abstract

This paper presents in brief, the development of cement based epoxy resin anticorrosive
reinforcement coatings used so far to protect the steel embedded in concrete against corrosion. Epoxy resin
has good adhesive properties and cement is used as binding agent. Reinforced concrete is one of the most
versatile construction material which used for the construction of several strategic structures like longspan highway bridges, pavements, off-shore structures, multi-storied framed structures and many other
mega- industrial structures. Engineers still believe that once the reinforced concrete structures are
designed and built, it will remain durable and maintenance free and they can fulfil the intended purpose
and function for the whole of its designed life, but the microstructural properties and permeability of
concrete to various aggressive ions are responsible for corrosion of reinforcement in concrete. The present
work involves the development of cement based epoxy resin reinforcement coatings.
