ABSTRACT
Cementitious coatings provide corrosion resistance to substrates such as
steel by maintaining the pH at the metal/coating interface above 4, a pH
range where steel corrodes at a low rate. The proper selection of materials
and their application is necessary if the coating is to be effective. To select the
proper material, it is necessary to define the problem:
1. Identify all chemicals that will be present and their concentrations.
