Preparation of Slag Reactive Powder Concrete and the Research on its Resistance to Chloride Ion Permeability

Abstract:

Basing on the basic preparation principle of reactive powder concrete, through mixing the new active component of slag, this thesis aims to confect new-type cement-based material with super high performance. As illustrated from the experiments of resistance to chlorine ion permeability, this type of concrete is with extremely compact structure and higher resistance to chlorine ion permeability compared with other cement-based materials. Silica fume presents the most important promotion effect on its resistance to chlorine ion permeability. Steel fiber and standard sand also help to enhance its impermeability. Through the analysis and the research on microstructure realized by X-ray Diffraction, mercury penetration experiment and SEM, all these views have been proved.
