André Küter
In this thesis a consistent thermodynamic basis is established for the description of cor-
rosion processes as well as for the evaluation of existing and the development of new
corrosion countermeasures.
The work covers: a) the adaptation of available thermodynamic principles to the area of
reinforcement corrosion, b) thermodynamically consistent descriptions for the diverse
corrosion states of steel in concrete, c) a review and evaluation of available measures
for corrosion protection, and d) the development of theoretical concepts for new cost-
efficient countermeasures.
In addition to the theoretical considerations, two implementation principles of the de-

veloped concepts are proposed and one of these tested by means of custom-designed
setups and measurement methods.

André Küter
In this thesis a consistent thermodynamic basis is established for the description of cor-
rosion processes as well as for the evaluation of existing and the development of new
corrosion countermeasures.
The work covers: a) the adaptation of available thermodynamic principles to the area of
reinforcement corrosion, b) thermodynamically consistent descriptions for the diverse
corrosion states of steel in concrete, c) a review and evaluation of available measures
for corrosion protection, and d) the development of theoretical concepts for new cost-
efficient countermeasures.
In addition to the theoretical considerations, two implementation principles of the de-

veloped concepts are proposed and one of these tested by means of custom-designed
setups and measurement methods.
