Abstract

The pitting corrosion behavior of reinforcing steel in cement mortar has been studied by electrochemical noise analysis (ENA) method. The wavelet Sym4 has been applied to analyze the EN data of reinforcing steel in mortar. The energy distribution plot(EDP) was plotted. The experimental results demonstrated that the change of EDP during the corrosion process could qualitatively reveal the useful information of corrosion mechanism. According to EDP, the occurance of pitting corrosion can be identified qualitativly.
