A study was conducted to verify the validity of silane as an additive by monitoring the corrosion behavior of silane-enhanced mortar. Silane coupling agents were used in varying proportions, and the effect of the coupling agent content on mortar properties was studied. The integral silane mortar additive was (γ-glycidoxypropyl) methyldimethoxysilane (KH560). River sand with a fineness modulus of 2.43 was used as the fine aggregate. A water/cement ratio of 0.4 was used for preparing mortar mixtures incorporating no silane (the reference sample), and...
