8 2. “CFRP EBR” 22/03/20128 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter CFRP = Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer EBR = Externally bonded Reinforcement 2.1 Wat, hoe en waarom? 2.2 Mogelijkheid tot combinatie met K.B. -> geleidbaarheid van carbon -> overlap toepassingsgebied 2.3 Probleem: geleidbaarheid lijmmiddel

9 2.1 CFRP EBR 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 9

10 2.1 CFRP EBR 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 10

11 2.1 CFRP EBR 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 11

12 Interesse in combinatie vanuit verschillende perspectieven:  CFRP EBR heeft positieve invloed op corrosie (zgn. “passieve bescherming”)  Sterke geleidbaarheid van carbonvezels: eis van 1Ω.cm ruimschoots voldaan  De toepassingsgebieden van aanbreng externe wapening en kathodische bescherming (of preventie) vertonen enige overlap. I.h.b. wanneer grote betonoppervlakken onder trekspanning extra wapening vergen 2.2 Toepassing van CFRP als anode-materiaal 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 12

13 2.3 Geleidbaarheid epoxy-lijm Epoxy is insulative  conductive adhesive  additives in epoxy: - Metal - Carbon particles: >‘Carbon black’ (powder) >graphite (fibres) >nanotubes 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 13

14 2.3 Geleidbaarheid epoxy-lijm: Carbon Black - small conductive particles - form a 3D-network as ‘electron path’ + tunnel effect - chemically rather inert, temperature resistant - “threshold concentration” - very high surface area (6 to 1500 m²/g) = problem! 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 14 Coville NJ, Mhlanga SD, Nxumalo EN, Shaikjee A.

31 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 31 Tafel slope measurements: B ≈ 26mV (depassivated steel) Good correlation with I corr from LP-measurements Mass loss measurements: Correlation with I corr from LP-measurements (within expected factor 2 error) 3.2 Results and discussion

32 22/03/2012 VABOR bijeenkomst - Philippe de Schoesitter 32 - The steel potentials are not found in the safe passive zone -> influence added chloride - I prot decrease (from 0,11 to 0,05mA) results in potential increase -> except: fibreless specimens - Active chloride corrosion initiation was not prevented, but ICCP was effective. -> influence added chloride -The radial fibre orientation gives the most consistent results. ->This overall improvement may be due to better concrete confinement -Anode resistivity: the most conductive epoxies show low change in I corr evolution between both measurements. ->fibres play no role in combination with very conductive epoxies -The CB added epoxies show the worst results. 3.2 Results and discussion
