Abstract
A concrete composition includes binder, aggregate, and a corrosion inhibitor. The chemical compound of the corrosion inhibitor includes an alkoxy group, a carboxyl group, and a nitrogen-containing aromatic group. An example of the corrosion inhibitor is methyl nicotinate. Where the concrete composition is reinforced with reinforcing bars, such as carbon steel, the corrosion inhibitor can inhibit corrosion of the reinforcing bars.
