Abstract:
The distribution pattern and diffusion coefficient of Cl
- in ultra-high-strength shotcrete and high-strength cement-based grout in chloride environment were studied through indoor immersion test in 5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution (360 d). The results show that under long-term immersion conditions of chloride salts, the diffusion of Cl
- in two high-performance cement-based materials followed Fick's second law. The surface Cl
- content increased with the extension of erosion age, while the Cl
- diffusion coefficient decreased exponentially with erosion age. Time varying models of Cl
- diffusion coefficients were established for both materials. The anti chloride ion erosion performance of ultra-high-strength shotcrete is superior to that of high-strength cement-based grout.
