In this study, we investigated the effects of mineral admixtures on the autogenous healing of flexural mortar members through a chloride ion penetration test. The mineral admixtures used were ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS), fly ash, silica fume (SF), clinker binder, and clinker sand. Through a four-point bending test, a crack of approximately 100 μm was induced at the bottom of the flexural mortar member, and the chloride ion penetration depth through the crack was measured to evaluate the self-healing performance. Additionally, we analyzed the correlation between the self-healing performances, which was measured through water flow and water absorption tests. The experimental results showed that the chloride ion penetration depth decreased due to crack healing, and the self-healing performance of the GGBS and SF was the highest. It was found that the subtle change in the self-healing performance was more accurately evaluated by the chloride ion penetration test.

In conventional concrete, one of the ingredients Cement is partially replaced by Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag and its nature is studied in this project.. In the present paper, a comparison of Chloride ion penetration is been done on Concrete specimens with partial GGBS replacement. Two tests have been performed on the concrete specimens in both normal environment and artificial marine environment. One is the conventional RCPT and the other one is the chloride ion penetration test using silver nitrate. Comparison of both the tests under normal and marine environment is the main aim of this paper. After compiling the data both RCPT and the Chloride ion penetration test goes hand in hand and this proves the compatibility of the new chloride ion penetration test using silver nitrate. This work has the comparison of the concrete specimens in normal and marine environments as well with different levels of GGBS replacement.

The purpose of this experiment was to complement the shortcomings of existing surface treatment methods and to implement water repellency inside concrete to prevent water penetration and improve the durability of concrete. Carriers to provide water repellency were fabricated using fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), and natural zeolite which are used as admixtures for concrete. They were mixed with cement mortar, tested, and evaluated. The compressive strength of the water-repellent impregnated natural zeolite (ZWR) specimen was 83% of that of ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and its contact angle was found to be 124°. The water penetration test and chloride ion penetration test confirmed that the water absorption and total passing charge were reduced, while the porosity and pore size were improved. For the other specimens, except ZWR, water repellency was judged to be insufficient due to the low fixing ability for the water-repellent’s active ingredient. The results of evaluating the physical performance and durability of cement mortar for the selection of the optimum carrier revealed that powders other than ZWR are not suitable as a material for providing water repellency to concrete.

Graphene’s outstanding properties make it a potential material for reinforced cementitious composites. However, its shortcomings, such as easy agglomeration and poor dispersion, severely restrict its application in cementitious materials. In this paper, a highly dispersible graphene (TiO2-RGO) with better dispersibility compared with graphene oxide (GO) is obtained through improvement of the graphene preparation method. In this study, both GO and TiO2-RGO can improve the pore size distribution of cement mortars. According to the results of the mercury intrusion porosity (MIP) test, the porosity of cement mortar mixed with GO and TiO2-RGO was reduced by 26% and 40%, respectively, relative to ordinary cement mortar specimens. However, the TiO2-RGO cement mortars showed better pore size distribution and porosity than GO cement mortars. Comparative tests on the strength and durability of ordinary cement mortars, GO cement mortars, and TiO2-RGO cement mortars were conducted, and it was found that with the same amount of TiO2-RGO and GO, the TiO2-RGO cement mortars have nearly twice the strength of GO cement mortars. In addition, it has far higher durability, such as impermeability and chloride ion penetration resistance, than GO cement mortars. These results indicate that TiO2-RGO prepared by titanium dioxide (TiO2) intercalation can better improve the strength and durability performance of cement mortars compared to GO.

Considering the complexity of the chloride ion penetration in concrete exposed to marine environment, an integrated chloride penetration model coupled with temperature and moisture transfer is proposed. The governing equations and parameters embody fully the cross-impacts among thermal conduction, moisture transfer and chloride ion penetration. Furthermore, the four exposure conditions are classified based on the different contact with the aggressive marine environment, and then the micro-climate condition on the concrete surface is investigated according to the regional climate characteristics, therefore, a comprehensive analog simulation to the chloride penetration process is proposed. To demonstrate that the proposed numerical model can correctly simulate the chloride diffusion in concrete, the integrated chloride diffusion model is applied in reproducing a real experiment, finally the model gives good agreement with the experimental profiles, and it is proved the tidal zone exposure results in a more severe attack on the reinforcement
