      abstract     = {Damage to reinforced concrete structures causes immense
                      economic losses every year. Costs due to failure of
                      structures and their repair measures are immense. Much of
                      this damage is due to the corrosive environment of
                      reinforced concrete structures. One option for repairing
                      corrosion-damaged components is cathodic corrosion
                      protection. In cathodic corrosion protection, the
                      reinforcing steel is forced to act cathodically and thus the
                      dissolution of the reinforcing steel is reduced to harmless
                      levels. The cathodic effect can be achieved for example by
                      the attachment of an impressed current anode where the
                      partial oxidation reactions are shifted to the external
                      anode. Widely used in cathodic corrosion protection are
                      mixed metal oxide (MMO) coated titanium meshes. Currently,
                      the use of anodes made of carbon textile is being developed,
                      which are of particular interest due to their excellent
                      mechanical properties, low weight and crack bridging
                      ability. Additionally, carbon textile is electrically
                      conductive and its functionality as a CP anode has already
                      been validated at the Institute of Building Materials
                      Research (ibac) of the RWTH Aachen University. Carbon,
                      according to the Pourbaix diagram , is not chemically
                      resistant, and can corrode. Therefore, durability studies
                      were required to determine the suitability of carbon as a
                      long term anode material for cathodic protection of steel in
                      concrete. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the
                      durability of carbon textile under anodic polarization. The
                      experiments were carried out using a simulated pore solution
                      and mortar. The influence of anodic polarization on carbon
                      textiles was investigated. The behavior of unconsumed carbon
                      textile under anodic polarization in alkaline solution was
                      characterized by current density-potential curves through
                      potentiodynamic experiments. SEM images were used to detect
                      decomposition of the sizing of the carbon filaments which
                      was attributed to anodic polarization. Further tests in
                      solution and further SEM images showed that impregnated
                      carbon textiles degraded the epoxy and SBR impregnations. A
                      degradation of the carbon fibers themselves could not be
                      achieved for potentials up to 2200 mV vs. NHE. The
                      decomposition of the sizing and epoxy matrix presumably
                      occurs in the transition region of its current
                      density-potential curves at potentials of about 900 mV vs.
                      NHE and 1050-1150 mV vs. NHE. The SBR impregnation is
                      decomposed at potentials of 490 mV vs. NHE. After 240 days
                      of potentiostatic polarization, no visible damage has
                      occurred to the mortar test specimens. However, the bond
                      between carbon textiles and mortar as well as stress
                      corrosion cracking of carbon textiles under anodic
                      polarization was not investigated.},
