Effect of a Crystalline Admixture on the Permeability Properties of Concrete and the Resistance to Corrosion of Embedded Steel

Effect of a Crystalline Admixture on the Permeability Properties of Concrete and the Resistance to Corrosion of Embedded Steel

Reinforced concrete structure durability hinges on concrete permeability, which relies on the characteristics of the inner porous network. Harmful ions and gases can accelerate steel corrosion. Permeability-reducing admixtures (PRA), including crystalline admixtures (CA), are commonly used to mitiga...
