By use of ASTM C1202, this paper studied the influence of mineral admixtures on the chloride ions penetration resistance of the new-old concrete compound system. The results indicate that the performance of new-old concrete exert significant influence on the new-old concrete compound system. The addition of mineral admixtures improve the permeability properties of new-old concrete. Adding fly ash(FA) require a relatively longer time to get its beneficial effect. When 30% weight of cement is replaced by 10% FA and 20% ground blast furnace slag(GGBFS), the inclusion of 30% mineral admixtures significantly improve the chloride ions penetration resistance properties of the new-old concrete compound system at 28 days and 180 days.

In this study, concrete prisms were made with three mineral admixtures: fly ash, blast furnace slag or silica fume and with three water-to-binder ratios(w/b). Chloride penetration was measured by the rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT)-ASTM C1202, 150-days ponding test and alternate wetting and drying test by cyclic loading with salt solution and oven drying, and the results by the three test methods were compared. This paper discussed the effects of mineral admixtures and w/b on the concrete chloride permeability. Blending concrete with blast furnace slag, fly ash or silica fume was beneficial with regard to the resistance against chloride ion penetration. Concrete specimens with lower w/b showed lower chloride permeability.

By use of ASTM C1202, this paper studied the influence of mineral admixtures on the chloride ions penetration resistance of the steam-cured concrete. The experimental results indicated that mineral admixtures improved the permeability properties of high-performance concretes, but at different rates depending on the binder type. FA required a relatively longer time to get its beneficial effect. For each 10%~40% replacement of OPC by FA in a concrete mix, the values of coulomb charge of steam-cured and standard curing concrete reduces by 8%~17% at180 days. When 30% weight of the OPC were replaced by FA and ground blast furnace slag(GBFS), the inclusion of 30% mineral admixtures provided a significant improvement to the chloride ions penetration resistance properties of steam-cured and standard curing concrete at 28 days and 180 days, especially for the combination of 10% FA and 20% GBFS (double adding).

This paper investigates the influence of mineral admixtures fly ash (FA) and ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS), the byproducts of industry, on chloride ions migration and corrosion resistance performance. A novel preparation method of wire beam electrode (WEB) was also introduced to explore the excellent corrosion-resistant capacity of concrete with mineral admixtures. By comparing concrete specimens with and without FA and GGBS, the test result of wire beam electrode, rapid chloride migration (RCM), and electrochemical tests highlight the positive impact of fly ash and GGBS against chloride ions migration, respectively. Concrete with fly ash and GGBS supplies an advanced protection effect of ordinary Portland cement; meanwhile, CO2 emission amount can be significantly reduced. Moreover, homemade wire beam electrode was proved to be a novel and reliable test method against corrosion, which has agreement with the test result of an electrochemical device.

This paper studies the influence of assembly unit of expansive agents (CaO and calcium sulphoaluminate) on the limited and free compressive strengths, the limited expansion rate, carbonation resistance, chloride ion penetration resistance and corrosion resistance of reinforcement concrete. The dosages of expansive agent were 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% by the total amount of cementitious materials. Two kinds of mineral admixture (blast furnace slag and fly ash) were applied in this study. Results show that suitable dosage (lower than or equal to 9%) of double expansion agent with a large amount of mineral admixtures can improve the limited and free compressive strengths. However, when the dosage of the double expansion agent is higher than 9%, the addition of the double expansion agent leads to the reduction of limited and free compressive strengths. The variation of the limit expansion rate reaches the maximum value when the curing age is 14 days. The increasing addition of expansive agents and lower water-binder ratio demonstrate positive effect on the limited expansion rate. Concrete with 60% mineral admixtures (fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag) shows lower limited expansion rate and higher compressive strength than the concrete with 50% mineral admixtures. Finally, the incorporation of double expansion agent can improve the resistance to carbonation, chloride ion penetration resistance, anti-corrosion of steel bars and mechanical strengths (the limited and free compressive strengths).

To improve the application of low-quality aggregates in structural concrete, this study investigated the effect of multi-purpose mineral admixtures, such as fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag, on the performance of concrete. Accordingly, the primary performance of low-quality recycled aggregate concrete could be improved by varying the replacement ratio of the recycled aggregate and using appropriate mineral admixtures such as fly ash and ground granulated blast-furnace slag. The results show the potential for the use of low-quality aggregate in structural concrete.

Fly ash (FA) and granular blast-furnace slag (GBFS) are usual mineral admixtures to conventional concrete, and their contents substituted for Portland cement definitely affect development rate of strength of concrete. C30 and C60 concrete samples with FA and/or GBFS were prepared to study the influence of substitution content of the mineral admixtures on 3 d, 7 d and 28 d strength. The results reveal that the development rate of strength in period from 3 d to 7 d gets slow with increasing content of mineral admixtures except for concrete with only GBFS less than 20%. In the case of substituting FA as the only mineral admixture for part of cement, the development rate of strength of C30 concrete in period from 7 d to 28 d keeps roughly constant even that of C60 concrete increases. When substituting mineral admixtures in the presence of GBFS for cement within experimental range, the development rate of strength in period from 7 d to 28 d gets fast with increasing substitution content. The enhancing effect of combining FA and GBFS occurs in period from 7 d to 28 d for both C30 and C60 concretes (FA+GBFS≤40%), even occurs in period from 3 d to 7 d for C60 concrete. Based on 7 d strength and the development rate, 28 d strength of concrete can be predicted accurately.

Pre-stressed high-strength concrete piles (PHCP) are widely used in the building industry in China. The main aim of our research was to investigate the utilization of quartz powder, fly ash, and blast furnace slag as mineral additives to prepare PHCP mortar. The samples were prepared using steam and autoclaving steaming. The influence of minerals on the sulfate resistance of mortar was analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) tests. The results showed that when compared to single doped quartz powder samples, samples prepared using fly ash or blast furnace slag improved the sulfate resistance of the PHCP mortar. Furthermore, the resistance to sulfate attack of samples with dual doped quartz powder, fly ash, and blast furnace slag also improved. MIP tests showed that mineral additives can change the pore size distribution after autoclave curing. However, the number of aching holes increased after mixing with 20% quartz powder and caused a decrease in the sulfate resistance.

The mineral admixtures mixed into concrete have important effects on concrete performance. The workability and mechanical properties of the concrete are studied with different dosages of admixtures, such as steel slag powder, blast furnace slag powder and fly ash. The results show that fly ash has more advantages in improving the performance of the concrete. When steel slag powder, blast furnace slag powder and fly ash, respectively, replace the amount of cement to 30%, 30%, 20%, the mechanical properties of the concrete are improved significantly.

Naphthalene sulfate based superplasticizer and poly carboxylate superplasticizer (characterized by different polymerization of graft chain and backbone chain, different reaction temperature and different carboxyl/graft chain ratio) were applied to investigate their influences on fluidity of mineral admixtures (fly ash, granulated ground iron blast furnace slag, silica fume) -Portland cement-water system.
