Durability and Meso Interfacial Transition Zone Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Cover
Aiming at the low servicelife and bad durability of the traditional concrete structure and concrete cover
the highdense concrete cover (HDC) was produced with the optimization of interfacial transition zone in meso scale(50100μm) between cement mortar and aggregate of the ordinary concrete. Moreover
some properties of HDC were studied
including the impermeability
the anticorrosion behavior
antiacidic gas corrosion and freeze resistance. It was shown that the impermeability of HDC was excellent with very low permeability. Compared with ordinary concrete
the anticorrosion behavior of HDC was remarkably strengthened. And under the condition of erosion accelerated by CO2 and SO2
the freeze resistance such as the appearance after freezing and thawing
mass loss and relative dynamic modulus of HDC was better than that of ordinary concrete and neutralization depth of 90day was less than 1 mm. On the other hand
the results of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) experiment indicated that the size of interfacial transition zone of HDC was effectively reduced and the microstructure compactness of concrete was increased. Therefore
it was found that the special producing technology and characteristics of HDC can improve the durability
and then the servicelife of structure was increased effectively.
