Nitrite Producing Bacteria Inhibit Reinforcement Bar Corrosion
To maintain the good state of steel reinforcement in cracked concrete, microbe based self healing cementitious composites(MSCC) have been developed.Yet proposed strategies involve reasonably slow crack filling by Bio-Mineralization and thus risk the possible rebar corrosion during crack healing.
