Abstract
Oxidation treatments of steel rebar by water immersion (2-5 days) and ozone exposure increased the bond strength between steel rebar and concrete by 14% and 22% respectively. The treatments slightly increased the electrical contact resistivity between rebar and concrete. Increase of the water immersion time to 7 or 10 days caused the bond strength to decrease to values still above that of the case without water treatment. The contact resistivity increased monotonically with the water immersion time.
