Abstract:

This paper deals with the influences of cementitious material composition on the durability of reinforced concrete with extravasated chloride via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and MIP test. The results show that,with the increases of fly ash or slag content in the cementitious material,the durability,the resistivity and the charge transfer resistance of reinforced concrete all increase first and then decrease,while the corrosion rate of steel varies in an opposite trend; and that the chloride threshold concentration decreases with the increase of dissolved oxygen content and with the decrease of Ca(OH)2 content around the steel. Moreover,it is found that,when cement is partially substituted with fly ash or slag,the density of the concrete increases,which results in the increase of charge transfer resistance,the improvement of stability of the passive film,the decrease of Ca(OH)2 content,and,finally,the decrease of the chloride threshold concentration.

Key words: reinforced concrete, cementitious material, durability, extravasated chloride, steel corrosion rate, chloride threshold concentration
