Study on chloride ion diffusion characteristics of reactive powder concrete under different loads

摘要

Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is a new cement-based material with ultra-high strength, high durability, high toughness and good volume stability. The study of chloride corrosion behavior is of great significance to the application of RPC in complex service environment. In this paper, the chloride ion immersion experiment is carried out to investigate the change rule of chloride ion concentration on the surface of RPC with soaking time under different loads. The results show that with the extending of soaking time, the chloride ion concentration of RPC surface gradually increases and tends to be stable, and the different depths from RPC surface also show similar rules. The results also show that the chloride ion diffusion characteristics of RPC under different loads are different, and the chloride ion diffusion rate under bending stress is higher than that under compressive stress.
