Reactive powder concrete (RPC) has a higher strengths, as well as excellent durability and corrosion resistance. So, it is expected to be increasingly used in marine engineering. In this study, After the RPC samples had been subjected to gradually increased high-pressure seawater for 30 days, the chloride contents in the samples along with the infiltration direction were calibrated on an energy dispersive spectrometer. On the basis of second Fick’s law, the chloride ion diffusion model and service life prediction model of reactive powder concrete in sea water are established. The service life of an actual reactive powder concrete structure could be predicted.

Chloride ion diffusion coefficient is an important indicator reflected the concrete durability in chloride erosion environment, and affects the service life of concrete structure directly. By the indoor test of chloride acceleration permeability, the chloride ions diffusivity is studied in the tunnel lining structure, and the variation law of the chloride content is tested with the change of penetration depth of different age specimen. Tests shows, with the increases of the penetration depth, the chloride content decrease gradually and finally tend to the initial chloride content of the specimen. Penetration time has a strong cumulative effect on the internal concentration of chloride ions in concrete, the high or low level of chloride ion concentration have a role of promotion or reduction for the chloride ion penetration in the concrete inside. The results provide an important basis for the predictions of service life of tunnel lining in chloride erosion environment.
