During the last decade, the use of several kinds of inhibitors has increased significantly. However, it is needed to ensure the long-term inhibiting capacity of the substance. This paper presents the results of the exposure of concrete specimens containing ZnO and ZnO/Ca(NO2)2 as inhibitors to an aggressive marine environment after more than three years. The inhibiting capacity results will be described based on electrochemical measurements. Besides, a possible mechanism of ZnO action will be given. To study the effect of these inhibitors, 244 specimens were prepared with tap water and water from lake Maracaibo (= 3000 ppm Cl-), and exposed to saline environment for more than three years. Water/cement ratios 0.45, 0.5 and 0.6 were used, with inhibitor concentrations of 2 %, 3 % and 4 % of ZnO or Ca(NO2)2, and a mixture of both at 2 %, concentration on cement weight basis. All the results (physic-chemical and electrochemical), indicate that ZnO and its mixture with Ca(NO2)2 show better performance than Ca(NO2)2. .... Keywords: Corrosion, Reinforced Concrete, Inhibitors, Zinc Oxide, Calcium Nitrite.

Because of its hardness, dimensional tolerance and resistance to hydrogen, cadmium plating has been used to protect steel components in marine environments.  However, Cadmium is thought to be toxic and a search is on for an alternative. In this paper,  cadmium and zinc-nickel plating/coating were compared in water immersion, temperature cycling, rain, humidity, and salt fog testing.
