Morinda lucida effects on steel-reinforced concrete in 3.5% NaCl: Implications for corrosion-protection of wind-energy structures in saline/marine environments.
This paper studies effects of the leaf-extract of Morinda lucida on the corrosion-degradation of steel-reinforced concrete in 3.5% NaCl, simulating saline/marine environment (prevalent in offshore environments for wind-energy structures/installations). Electrochemical monitoring techniques and compressive-strength testing were employed for different concentrations of the leaf-extract admixture...
