✦ Synopsis

The diffusion of chloride ions in neat cement pastes and mortars made with and without a limestone filler was investigated. In order to study the effect of the limestone filler, all mixtures were prepared at a fixed water/cement ratio (055). Test results indicate that the addition of a limestone filler reduces the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions. This reduction is attributed to the effect of the limestone filler particles on the tortuosity of the system. Results also indicate that the presence of interfaces has only a limited effect on the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions.

The pore structure of hydrated cement in mortar and concrete is quite different from that of neat cement paste. The porous transition zones formed at the aggregate-paste interfaces affect the pore size distribution. The effect of the sand content on the development of pore structure, the permeabilit

The diffusion rate for chloride in cement paste is a parameter of major significance for the resistance of concrete structures to seawater environments. The results of this investigation show that an addition of silica fume or flyash in ordinary Portland cement paste considerably reduces the diffusi
