摘要：

Cu-Al-Mn (CAM) superelastic alloys (SEAs) have been shown to improve the seismic performance of bridges and buildings by replacing the plastic hinge steel reinforcement. Despite research on mechanical performance at the material and structural scales, there is limited data on the degradation in the properties of CAM SEAs under harsh environmental conditions; particularly, under long-term corrosion that are relevant for civil engineering struc-tures. This research aims to fill this knowledge gap by studying the long-term corrosion resistance of CAM SEAs in comparison with different types of steel reinforcing bars (rebar) used in construction. Long-term accelerated corrosion testing of CAM SEAs and four types of commonly used steel rebar, namely, mild steel (MS), high chromium steel (XS), epoxy coated steel (ES), and stainless steel (SS), was conducted up to 1,051 days. Three different diameters (U.S. #3, phi = 9.53 mm; U.S. #5, phi = 15.88 mm, and U.S. #10, phi = 32.26 mm) of steel rebar were considered to determine the effect of bar size on the corrosion rate. Mechanical tests were conducted after specimens reached predetermined corrosion levels. The critical mechanical properties of CAM SEAs and four steel rebar were extracted and analyzed. In addition, potentiodynamic polarization tests were performed and the Tafel curves were employed to determine the corrosion rates of CAM SEAs, steel rebar and NiTi SEAs. NiTi alloy was used as a reference for being the more traditional composition used as SEAs. It was found that the corrosion resistance of CAM SEAs is higher than MS and XS, but lower than NiTi SEA, SS and ES. The superelasticity, particularly the strain recovery, of CAM SEAs showed almost no degradation after over three years of corrosion. The experimental data and control groups in this research provide detailed evaluation of the corrosion resistance of CAM SEAs and guides the application of CAM SEAs in harsh environmental conditions.
