Pradhan et al. found that a larger available surface area can increase the corrosion rate, and the surface area increased with increasing surface roughness.
It is known that mild steel rebar can form a protective passivation layer in the strong alkaline environment of concrete (when pH > 10). However, this layer can be destroyed by chloride ions and other harmful ions, diffusing from the ocean or industrial environment through the concrete matrix to the surface of the steel bars, causing rapid corrosion of the steel bars.
