Relationships between free and water-soluble chloride concentrations in concrete
Abstract
Corrosion of metals embedded in concrete is pivotal when studying durability of reinforced concrete structures. Chloride ions present in the vicinity of steel reinforcements tend to initiate and/or accelerate their corrosion. Chloride ions are either bound physically or chemically to the cementing material or free in the pore solution, and only the latter can be transported. Free chloride concentration Cf was measured by pore solution …
