When mixed with water, the anhydrous cement clinker compounds hydrate to form cement paste. It is the cement paste that forms the matrix of the composite concrete material and gives it its strength and rigidity, by means of an interconnected network in which the aggregate particles are embedded. The cement paste is porous in nature. 8 at normal humidity levels. This highly alkaline pore solution arises from by-products of the cement clinker hydration reactions such as NaOH, KOH, and Ca(OH) 2. The maintenance of a high pH in the concrete pore solution is a fundamental feature of the corrosion resistance of carbon steel reinforcing bars.

From kinetic considerations, the oxygen content will be an important factor in determining corrosion rates. The oxygen content of the water is usually minimal, since the solubility of oxygen in water decreases with increasing temperature (Fig. 9), and any oxygen remaining in the hot water is consumed over time by the cathodic corrosion reaction.
5. The kinetic information in Fig. 5 indicates that high oxygen contents are generally undesirable. It should also be noted from Figs. 6 that active corrosion is possible in acidified untreated boiler water, even in the absence of oxygen. Below the hydrogen evolution line, hydrogen evolution is thermodynamically favored as the cathodic half-cell reaction, as indicated. Undesirable water acidification can result from contamination by sea salts or from residual cleaning agents. Inspection of the kinetic data presented in Fig.
