The penetration of chloride ions into hardened cement pastes (hcp) has been measured by chemical analysis, X Ray diffraction and thermal analysis. The penetration of chloride depends on the permeability; thus the greater the w/c ratio the greater is the penetration. The concentration of chloride in

✦ Synopsis
Communicated by F.H. Wittmann) (Received March I, 1988) Hardened Portland cement paste samples were immersed in sodium chloride solution.
Their pore solution was expressed and analysed for C£-and OH-ions concentrations. The development of free C~-and of C£-/OH-ratio is discussed in relation to the limits previously established for the onset of depassivation of steel reinforcement. It was found that within a relatively short period penetration of the chloride ions could cause the C~-/OHratio in the pores to exceed the depassivation limits.

The influence of various factors on the binding of chloride in cement and the chloride concentration of the pore solution was investigated. It was shown that the pore solutions of samples prepared under addition of chloride taken from the same cement and with identical content of total chloride exhi
The interface between corroding steel and cement paste containing chloride, with and without condensed silica fume, was studied. For specimens containing only portland cement an interfacial film of large crystals of lime (CH) covered most of the steel surface. Even a 16% replacement of the portland
The cement paste in the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) around aggregate particles has a significantly higher porosity than bulk cement paste. This elevated porosity will effect the transport properties of concrete. The penetration of Wood's metal into concrete samples indicates that the porosity
Two sets of neat paste samples, prepared with an ordinary Portland cement and a ternary blended cement (containing slag and fly ash), were stored in various corrosive solutions of different pH (11.5 and 13) and chloride concentrations (up to 20 g/1 of Cl'). Structural and textural alterations were i
