Book Transport and Interactions of Chlorides in Cement based Materials

Download or read book Transport and Interactions of Chlorides in Cement based Materials written by Caijun Shi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chloride-induced corrosion is the most important durability issue of reinforced concrete structures, and the prediction and prevention of chloride-induced corrosion has attracted considerable interest all over the world. Given that chloride penetrates through the concrete cover, the issues concerning its transport are crucial. These include testing methods, prediction, and the prevention of ingress. During the transport process, physical and chemical interaction occurs between chloride and cement hydrates, which in turn affects the further transport, so the transport of chloride and these interactions are closely related and underpin our understanding of chloride-induced corrosion in RC structures. This book provides in-depth discussion of chloride transport and its interaction in cement-based materials, and reviews and summarizes the state of the art. The mechanisms and testing methods for chloride transport, chemical interactions of chloride with cement hydrates, chloride binding isotherms, measurement of penetration depths, factors affecting chloride transport, and modeling of chloride transport are discussed in detail. This book serves as a reference for researchers or engineer, and a textbook for graduate students.

Book Effects of Deicers on Concrete Deterioration

Download or read book Effects of Deicers on Concrete Deterioration written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete specimens were exposed to weekly cycles of wetting and drying in distilled water and in solutions of sodium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium magnesium acetate with either a 6.04 molal ion concentration, equivalent in ion concentration to a 15% solution of NaCl, or a 1.06 molal ion concentration, equivalent in ion concentration to a 3% solution of NaCl, for periods of up to 95 weeks. Specimens were also exposed to air only. The effects of exposure were evaluated based on changes in the dynamic modulus of elasticity and the physical appearance of the specimens at the conclusion of the tests. Concretes exposed to distilled water and air show, respectively, an increase and a decrease in dynamic modulus of elasticity, due principally to changes in moisture content; overall, no negative impact on the concrete properties of these specimens is observed. At lower concentrations, sodium chloride and calcium chloride have a relatively small negative impact on the properties of concrete. At high concentrations, sodium chloride has a greater but still relatively small negative effect. At low concentrations, magnesium chloride and calcium magnesium acetate can cause measurable damage to concrete. At high concentrations, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium magnesium acetate cause significant changes in concrete that result in loss of material and a reduction in stiffness and strength.

Book Effect of Chloride and Temperature on Rusting of Steel Reinforced Concrete 2nd Ed

Download or read book Effect of Chloride and Temperature on Rusting of Steel Reinforced Concrete 2nd Ed written by Raja Rizwan Hussain and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete structures is a major durability problem around the world. Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures exposed to chloride and high temperature environments like sea, deicing salts, deserts and industrial zones suffer from accelerated corrosion of rebars. There is no doubt that the presence of chloride ions promote the disruption of the passive layer causing corrosion of reinforcement and the chloride attack becomes much more severe when coupled with high temperature. Therefore, to be able to forecast the service life of RC structures it is necessary to quantify the amount of corrosion. The chloride attack and increase in the electrochemical reaction rate of corrosion due to high temperature is an electrochemical thermodynamic phenomenon influenced by several factors and some of them are being overlooked in the past research works and have difference in opinion. Also it was found that the experimental data for the coupled effect of chloride and temperature on corrosion of reinforcement especially in the high temperature range and high chloride concentration is limited.The objective of this book is therefore, to investigate the effects of coupling chloride and temperature on corrosion of reinforcement throughout the life of concrete structures by incorporating realistic electrochemical-thermodynamic models and actual field condition experimentation. The modeling task has been accomplished by the use of a concrete durability model developed by our research group (Concrete Laboratory, University of Tokyo) as a computational platform on which the corrosion based reinforced concrete performance and quality throughout the life of concrete structure is examined in both space and time domains under environmental actions of chloride and high temperature. In this thermodynamic approach, reinforced concrete is treated as a composite material consisting of growing micro-scale pores in geometry, which governs basic mechanical and physical features of concrete with respect to long-term durability. On this line, the electrochemical-thermodynamic modeling of concrete forms the fundamental core of the theoretical approach to achieve both the scientific knowledge and engineering simulations of altering materials. The experimental results for the effect of chloride and temperature on corrosion have been compared with the thermodynamic corrosion model and are found to be in close agreement. In the light of experimental results, the behavior of RC corrosion is found to increase non-linearly with the increase in chloride content and temperature. The half-cell potential values are found to randomly increase and decrease in a non-uniform manner due to the destruction and reformation of passive layer by localized attack of chloride on the passive layer and increased rate of reaction at high temperature as a function of time. The rate of corrosion from 20°C to 40°C temperature is found to be more than from 40°C to 60°C temperature range because of the decrease of solubility of oxygen in the pore water at high temperature range. Finally, the specimens were broken and gravimetric corrosion weight loss was determined experimentally and modeled analytically.

Book Influence of Chloride in Reinforced Concrete

Download or read book Influence of Chloride in Reinforced Concrete written by HK. Cook and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present state of knowledge regarding the action of chloride, principally calcium chloride, in reinforced concrete is reviewed, with special emphasis on its effect on the reinforcing steel. The reactions through which calcium chloride accelerates the set and strength of portland cement are explained, as well as the significance these reactions with cement have with regard to the potential corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete. Calcium chloride's beneficial effects in ordinary reinforced concrete are enumerated, along with the precautions regarding its use in prestressed concrete and special situations. The deterioration of bridge decks and the significance of the "chloride content corrosion threshold" that has been suggested for bridge decks are discussed. It is pointed out that the limit for chloride that has been suggested as a guide to determine the extent of repair to existing bridge decks that have been subject to repeated application of deicer salts is not a requirement that should be applied to limit the chloride content of ordinary reinforced concrete. When the amount of commercial calcium chloride is limited to two percent by weight of cement, the degree of corrosion in ordinary reinforced concrete is insignificant if the concrete is reasonably dense and there is adequate cover over the steel.

This report deals specifically with the ingress of salt from the environment, which can lead to severe corrosion of reinforcement. It reviews the international state-of-the-art with regard to chloride ingress into concrete and, in particular, considers: - The influence of concreting materials, mix design, curing and environment - methods for the detection of chloride ingress in structures - techniques used for studying chloride ingress

Book The Deleterious Chemical Effects of Concentrated Deicing Solutions on Portland Cement Concrete

Download or read book The Deleterious Chemical Effects of Concentrated Deicing Solutions on Portland Cement Concrete written by Michigan Tech Transportation Institute and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research project investigated the effects of concentrated brines of magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium chloride, and calcium magnesium acetate on Portland cement concrete. Although known to be effective at deicing and anti-icing, the deleterious effects these chemicals may have on concrete have not been well documented. As a result of this research, it was determined that there is significant evidence that magnesium chloride and calcium chloride chemically interact with hardened Portland cement paste in concrete resulting in expansive cracking, increased permeability, and a significant loss in compressive strength. Although the same effects were not seen with sodium chloride brines, it was shown that sodium chloride brines have the highest rate of ingress into hardened concrete. This latter fact is significant with respect to corrosion of embedded steel. The mechanism for attack of hardened cement paste varies with deicer chemical but in general, a chemical reaction between chlorides and cement hydration products results in the dissolution of the hardened cement paste and formation of oxychloride phases, which are expansive. The chemical attack of the hardened cement paste is significantly reduced if supplementary cementitious materials are included in the concrete mixture. Both coal fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag were found to be effective at mitigating the chemical attack caused by the deicers tested. In the tests performed, ground granulated blast furnace slag performed better as a mitigation strategy as compared to coal fly ash. Additionally, siloxane and silane sealants were effective at slowing the ingress of deicing chemicals into the concrete and thereby reducing the observed distress. In general, the siloxane sealant appeared to be more effective than the silane, but both were effective and should be considered as a maintenance strategy.
