In the present paper, an analysis of the diffusion behavior of chloride ions in concrete is presented. In concentrated electrolytic aqueous solutions such as seawater or that typically used in laboratory experiments, the effect of ionic interaction may significantly reduce the chemical potential and

✦ Synopsis
The rates of chloride diffusion from seawater into concrete made with different w/c ratios and different types of cements were studied.
The effect of cathodic protection on the chloride penetration was also investigated.
The effect of w/c ratio on the chloride content was limited mainly to a surface layer of the concrete and to short durations of exposure.
For longer durations of exposure and for greater depths of penetration, cement type had a greater influence on the depth of chloride penetration than the w/c ratio.
Portland cements gave as much as two to five times higher chloride penetration than blended cements.
For the Portland cements as much as 8.6% C~A was not adequate for reducing the chloride penetration compared Qith zero-content of C3A.
It appears that the diffusion of chloride ions into concrete is deDendent not only on the permeability and the capacity of chloride binding but also on the ion exchange capacity of the system.
Les taux de diffusion de chloride d'eau de mer dans le b~ton, faites avec diff~rentes facteur eau-ciment et diff~rents types de ciments, ont ~t~ ~tudi~es.
L'effet de protection cathodique sur la p~n~tration de chloride a ~t~ ~galement examine.
L'effet du facteur eau-ciment sur le contenu de chloride s'est limit~ principalement ~ une couche superficielle de b~ton et ~ de courtes dur~es d'exposition.
Pour des duties d'exposition plus longues et pour des profondeurs de p~n~tration plus longues, le type ciment avait une influence plus grande sur la profondeur de p~n~tration de chloride que le facteur eau-ciment.
Les ciments Portland donnaient une p~n~tration de chloride de deux ~ cinq fois sup~rieure aux ciments m~lang~s.
Pour les ciments Portland, m~me avec 8,6% C3A on ne parvenait pas ~ reduire la p~n~tration de chloride, en comparaison avec un niveau z~ro de C~A.
Iien ressort aue la diffusion des ions de chloride dans Ie b~ton d~pend non seulement de la perm~abilit~ et de la capacit~ d'attache du chloride, mais aussi de la capacit~ d'~change d'ions du syst~me.
