In order to study the performance of concrete with compound admixture of iron tailings and slag powder under low cement clinker system, the mixture ratio of different iron tailings powder and slag powder was designed to prepare C30 and C50 concrete. The workability, strength, carbonation depth, chloride diffusion coefficient, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) of concrete were measured, respectively. The test results show that iron tailings powder is beneficial to improve the workability, and the strength of concrete decreases with the increase of iron tailings powder content, while the carbonation depth and chloride diffusion coefficient increase with the increase of iron tailings powder content. Under low cement clinker system, the iron tailings powder should not be used alone (below 70% of mineral admixture). When the ratio of iron tailings to slag powder is 1 : 1, the strength, carbonation depth, chloride ion permeation coefficient, and the microstructure of concrete are roughly the same to that of concrete with single slag powder. So, the iron tailings powder can replace S95 grade slag powder in the same quantity. Iron tailings powder does not take part in hydration reaction, but it can improve particle gradation, reach close accumulation, and increase the quantity of central grains.

Cube crushing strength, resistance to chloride penetration and gas adsorption analysis of mineral admixture concrete are tested to analyze the effect of raw material on chloride diffusion coefficient and its regression relationship with concrete microcosmic pore structure index. Test results show that chloride diffusion coefficient at different age increased with the increase of water-binding material ratio, decreased with the increase of cement dosage and both appeared a good nonlinear regression relationship. Chloride diffusion coefficient at different age increased with the increase of concrete microcosmic pore structure index. 56d chloride diffusion coefficient has a good linear correlation with microcosmic pore structure index, and 84d chloride diffusion coefficient has a good nonlinear regression relationship with microcosmic pore structure index.

This study investigated the effective chloride diffusion coefficient of cement mortar with different water-to-cement ratio (w/c) under electrical accelerated migration measurement. The cumulative chloride concentration in anode cell solution and the cumulative chloride concentration drop in the cathode cell solution was measured by RCT measurement and the results were further used to calculate the chloride diffusion coefficient by Nordtest Build 355 method and Truc method. The influence of w/c on cement mortar’s chloride coefficient was investigated and the chloride diffusion coefficient under different determination methods were compared with other researchers’ work, a good consistency between this work’s results and literatures’ results was obtained. The results indicated that the increased w/c of cement mortar samples will have a higher chloride diffusion coefficient. The cumulative chloride concentration drop in the cathode cell solution will have deviation in early stage measurement (before 60 h) which will result in overestimation of the effective chloride diffusion coefficient.

One of the ways of lessening the CO2 emissions of cement industry consists of replacing clinkers with supplementary cementitious materials. The required service life of real construction elements is long, so it is useful to characterize the performance of these materials in the very long term. Here, the influence of incorporating waste glass powder as a supplementary cementitious material, regarding the microstructure and durability of mortars after 1500 hardening days (approximately 4 years), compared with reference mortars without additions, was studied. The percentages of clinker replacement by glass powder were 10% and 20%. The microstructure was studied using impedance spectroscopy and mercury intrusion porosimetry. Differential thermal and X-ray diffraction analyses were performed for assessing the pozzolanic activity of glass powder at the end of the time period studied. Water absorption after immersion, the steady-state diffusion coefficient, and length change were also determined. In view of the results obtained, the microstructure of mortars that incorporated waste glass powder was more refined compared with the reference specimens. The global solid fraction and pores volume were very similar for all of the studied series. The addition of waste glass powder reduced the chloride diffusion coefficient of the mortars, without worsening their behaviour regarding water absorption after immersion.

The durability of the concrete in underground and marine engineering is affected by the underground and ocean environment. Chloride diffusion coefficient under hydrostatic pressure is a key parameter of concrete durability design under corresponding conditions. Therefore, this paper studies the diffusion behavior of chloride in different diffusion source solutions by experiment and simulation. Based on the experimental results, this paper proposes a new chloride diffusion model under the coupling effect of diffusion and convection. The interaction of ions and compounds in the diffusion source solutions, concrete pore fluid, and concrete material are considered in the new chloride diffusion model. The experimental results show that chloride diffusion rate is significantly affected by hydrostatic pressure, which increases with the increase of hydrostatic pressure. The chloride diffusion coefficient shows a certain difference in difference diffusion source solutions. The chloride diffusion coefficient in divalent cationic diffusion source solutions is the largest, the chloride diffusion coefficient in the divalent and monovalent cationic compound ones is in the middle, and the chloride diffusion coefficient in the monovalent cationic ones is the smallest. There is a linear relationship between the chloride diffusion coefficient and the hydrostatic pressure whether in single or combined cationic diffusion source solutions.

Under coastal or marine conditions, chloride erosion is the major accelerating factor of reinforcement corrosion. Therefore, it is of vital importance to investigate the chloride diffusion model. Research reveals that the concrete stress state has great influence on chloride diffusion; therefore a stress influence coefficient was incorporated in chloride diffusion coefficient model by many researchers. By referring to the experimental data from eight different researchers, the law between stress influence coefficient and concrete stress ratio is studied in detail, and equations relating the stress influence coefficient with the concrete stress ratio are established. Compared with three typical existing groups of equations, it is found that the proposed equations give the most accurate estim.ation of the stress influence coefficient. Hence, the proposed equations can be adopted to improve the valuation of chloride diffusion coefficient, and a modified chloride diffusion model is put forward. Three groups of experimental data are used to validate the modified chloride diffusion model, which is shown to be reasonable and having high prediction accuracy.
