Abstract

It has been well known that concrete structures exposed to acid and sulfate environments such as sewer, sewage and wastewater, soil, groundwater, and seawater etc. show significant decrease in their durability due to chemical attack. Such deleterious acid and sulfate attacks lead to expansion and cracking in concrete, and thus, eventually result in damage to concrete matrix by forming expansive hydration products due to the reaction between portland cement hydration products and acid and sulfate ions. Objectives of this experimental research are to investigate the effect of mineral admixtures on the resistance to acid and sulfate attack in concrete and to suggest high-resistance concrete mix against acid and sulfate attack. For this purpose, concretes specimens with three types of cement (ordinary portland cement (OPC), binary blended cement (BBC), and ternary blended cement (TBC) composed of different types and proportions of admixtures) were prepared at water-biner ratios of 32% and 43%. The concrete specimens were immersed in fresh water, 5% sulfuric acid, 10% sodium sulfate, and 10% magnesium sulfate solutions for 28, 56, 91, 182, and 365 days, respectively. To evaluate the resistance to acid and sulfate for concrete specimens, visual appearance changes were observed and compressive strength ratios and mass change ratios were measured. It was observed from the test results that the resistance against sulfuric acid and sodium sulfate solutions of the concretes containing mineral admixtures were much better than that of OPC concrete, but in the case of magnesium sulfate solution the concretes containing mineral admixtures was less resistant than OPC concrete due to formation of magnesium silicate hydrate (M-S-H) which is non-cementitious.

하수도, 오 폐수, 토양 속, 지하수 및 해수 등의 환경에 건설되는 콘크리트 구조물은 산 및 황산염에 노출되어 있다. 이 같은 산 및 황산염 침투로 포틀랜드 시멘트 중의 수화생성물과 산 및 황산염 이온이 반응하여 팽창 수화물을 생성함으로써 콘크리트에 팽창 및 균열을 발생시켜, 결국 콘크리트 매트릭스에 손상을 일으킨다. 따라서 이 연구의 목적은 콘크리트의 황산 및 황산염 침투 저항성에 미치는 광물질 혼화재의 영향을 평가하여, 황산 및 황산염 침투에 대한 고저항성 콘크리트를 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 광물질 혼화재의 형태 및 비율을 변화시킨 OPC, 2성분계 및 3성분계의 3가지 종류의 시멘트를 사용하여 물-결합재비 32% 및 43%인 콘크리트를 제조하였다. 제작된 콘크리트 시편은 민물, 5% 황산, 10% 황산나트륨 및 10% 황산마그네슘 용액에 재령 28, 56, 91, 182 및 365일 동안 각각 침지시켰다. 콘크리트의 황산 및 황산염 침투 저항성을 평가하기 위하여 외관변화 관찰과 압축강도 비 및 질량 변화율을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 광물질 혼화재를 혼입한 콘크리트의 황산 및 황산나트륨 침투에 대한 저항성은 OPC 콘크리트 경우 보다 훨씬 우수한 것으로 나타났으나, 황산마그네슘의 경우 비결합재질의 규산마그네슘수화물(M-S-H)의 형성으로 광물질 혼화재를 혼입한 콘크리트가 OPC 콘크리트보다 불리한 것으로 나타났다.
