Chloride ion penetration frequently leads to steel corrosion and reduces the durability of reinforced concrete. Although previous studies have investigated the chloride ion permeability of some fiber concrete, the chloride ion permeability of the basalt fiber reinforced concrete (BFRC) has not been widely investigated. Considering that BFRC may be subjected to various exposure environments, this paper focused on exploring the chloride ion permeability of BFRC under the coupling effect of elevated temperatures and compression. Results demonstrated that the chloride ion content in concrete increased linearly with temperature. After exposure to different elevated temperatures, the chloride ion content in BFRC varied greatly with increasing stress. The compressive stress ratio threshold for the chloride ion penetration was measured. A calculation model of BFRC chloride ion diffusion coefficient under the coupling effect of elevated temperatures and mechanical damage (loading test) was proposed.

This study focuses on the chloride ion penetration resistance of a magnesium phosphate cement (MPC)-based composite material coating on the surface of silicate material. By means of electrical flux method and electric acceleration corrosion tests, the anti-chlorine ion permeation and reinforcement properties of MPC-based materials and Portland cement (OPC) mortar were compared and analyzed. The experimental results show that the electrical flux of the hardened body of the MPC-based material is much lower than that of the Portland cement mortar, and the electrical flux of the hardened body of the MPC mortar can be obviously reduced by adding silica-fume (SF) and fly ash (FA), which, when combined in a suitable proportion, will make the MPC’s hardened body more dense and impermeable. The addition of short cut fibers increases the number of pores, the pore size, and the electrical flux of the cement mortar’s hardened body. The adverse effects of the three fibers on the permeability of the MPC mortar against chlorine ions were as follows: polyvinyl alcohol fiber > glass fiber > basalt fiber. The electrical flux of MPC mortar or MPC paste coated on the surface of the OPC mortar was greatly reduced. Compared with silicate mortar, the MPC-based material has excellent protective performance under the condition of accelerated corrosion.

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

The present study investigated the influence of the hybridization of steel and polyolefin fiber on the mechanical performance and chloride ion penetration of base concrete designed for marine shotcreting purposes. The purpose of fiber hybridization is to reduce the risk of corrosion that might occur during service life. Sets of hybrid fiber reinforced base concrete, whose water to binder ratio was 0.338, were prepared. The fiber contents in the base concrete were 0.54 and 1.08 vol%, and the volume proportion of polyolefin fiber in the hybrid fiber varied from 0 to 100%. Although the effect of fiber hybridization was not clearly observed from the compressive strength, a synergetic effect which increased both the flexural strength and toughness occurred at a fiber content of 1.08 vol%. The optimum ratio of steel and polyolefin fiber was 50:50. With respect to chloride ion penetration, an increasing amount of steel fiber increased the amount of current passing through the base concrete specimen due to the presence of electrically conductive steel fiber. However, chloride ion diffusivity was not greatly affected by the presence of steel fiber.
