In the pursuit of sustainable construction, diverse cementitious matrices offer alternatives to traditional Portland cement. While they show potential in reducing carbon emissions, their corrosion behavior on carbon steel varies. Understanding these complexities is vital for balancing environmental concerns with long-term structural integrity. This literature review aims to comprehensively analyze carbon steel corrosion in diverse cementitious matrices, identifying essential research gaps, and guiding future investigations to advance the construction of more sustainable and enduring structures.
