Abstract
Concentrated salt solutions are currently being used as antiicing and deicing agents on the roads and highways in Ontario, Canada. The four commonly-used brines are predominantly CaCl2, NaCl, MgCl2, or a multi-chloride (CaCl2/NaCl) mix. The purpose of this investigation was to determine if the different cation(s) of the brine have an influence on the chloride threshold concentration for corrosion initiation of reinforcing steel and on the subsequent active corrosion rates. The tests were carried out in synthetic pore solution in order to allow for control of the chloride content and observation of any corrosion. The results show that the MgCl2 results in a significant drop in pH of the solution and a corresponding high level of corrosion, while the NaCl solution has the lowest chloride threshold value and most anodic corrosion potential.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
