A multi-species model based on the Nernst-Planck equation has been developed by using a finite volume method. The model makes it possible to simulate transport due to an electrical field or by diffusion and to predict chloride penetration through water saturated concrete. The model is used in this paper to assess and analyse chloride diffusion coefficients and chloride binding isotherms. The experimental assessment of the effective chloride diffusion coefficient consists in measuring the chloride penetration depth by using a colorimetric method. The effective diffusion coefficient determined numerically allows to correctly reproduce the chloride penetration depth measured experimentally. Then, a new approach for the determination of chloride binding, based on non-steady state diffusion tests, is proposed. The binding isotherm is identified by a numerical inverse method from a single experimental total chloride concentration profile obtained at a given exposure time and from Freundlich's formula. In order to determine the initial pore solution composition (required as initial conditions for the model), the method of Taylor that describes the release of alkalis from cement and alkali sorption by the hydration products is used here. Finally, with these input data, prediction of total and water-soluble chloride concentration profiles has been performed. The method is validated by comparing the results of numerical simulations to experimental results obtained on various types of concretes and under different exposure conditions.

Chloride ion is considered one of the most common culprits in the corrosion of steel in concrete. It breaks down the passive film and allows the steel to corrode actively at a high rate. The main objective of this study is to determine the critical chloride ion concentrations in the pore solutions and chloride binding effect of cement pastes made with and without fly ash. Cement pastes with water-ratio of 0.5 allowed to hydrate in sealed containers for 28 days and to express poresolution. T도 expressed pore fluids were analyzed for chloride and hydroxyl ion concentrations. It was found that the replaced cement with fly ash have little effect on Chloride binding capacity ratio.

철근의 부식은 철근콘크리트 구조물의 열화에 가장 영향이 큰 요소이며, 염화물 이온에 의한 염해는 철근부식을 일으키는 가장 일반적인 원인 중의 하나이다. 본 연구는 콘크리트의 성능개선과 내구성 향상을 위해 사용량이 증가하고 있는 플라이 애쉬의 시멘트 경화체 내에서의 $Cl^-$고정화에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해 밀봉용기 내에서 양생시킨 재령28일 공시체의 세공용액을 추출하여 세공용액 중의 $Cl^-$, $OH^-$농도 측정과 세공용액 추출용과 같은 배합 공시체의 증발수량 측정으로 세공용액량 및 시멘트 페이스트내에서의 $Cl^-$ 고정화량을 산정한 것이다. 연구결과 플라이 애쉬 치환이 시멘트 경화체내 세공용액의 $Cl^-$농도와 프리델씨염 생성량 및 고정화량 증가에 미치는 영향은 거의 없고, 철근부식에 관계하는 $Cl^-$/$OH^-$는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper aims to study the effect of measurement methods and cracking on chloride transport of concrete materials. Three kinds of measurement methods were carried out, including immersion test, rapid migration test and steady-state migration test. All of these measurements of chloride transport show that chloride ion diffusion coefficient decreased with the reduction of water to cement ratio. Results of the immersion test were less than that of rapid migration test and steady-state migration test. For the specimen of lower water to cement ratio, the external electrical field has little effect on chloride binding relatively. Compared with the results obtained by these different measurement methods, the lower water to cement ratio may cause smaller differences among these different methods. The external voltage can reduce chloride binding of concrete, and the higher electrical field made a strong impact on the chloride binding. Considering the effect of high voltage on the specimen, results indicate that results based on the steady-state migration test should be more reasonable. For cracked concrete, cracking can accelerate the chloride ion diffusion.

자연환경 중 다양한 형태로 존재하는 염화물은 콘크리트 구조물의 철근 부식을 야기하며 이에 따른 심각한 내구성 저하와 함께 구조물의 수명을 감소시킨다. 현재 콘크리트 중의 염화물 침투 특성을 규명하기위한 연구는 해안가 장기 폭로 시험과 전기화학적 촉진 시험에 의한 확산계수 평가 등에 의해 지속적인 발전을 이루어왔으나 콘크리트의 배합, 수화도, 고정화능력, 공극률의 재료적 특성을 고려한 이성적이며 포괄적인 염화물 침투 모델에 관한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실내 염화물 침지 실험을 통해 콘크리트의 염화물 고정화 특성을 파악하고 이를 고려한 염화물 침투 모델로서 비정상상태의 염화물 침투 해석과 함께 해양침지환경하의 철근콘크리트 구조물의 내구수명 예측을 시도하였으며 SHRP 기준과 20~40%의 내구수명의 차이를 보였다.

In marine and coastal environments, penetration of chloride ions is one of the main mechanisms causing concrete reinforcement corrosion. Currently, most of experimental investigations about submerged penetration of chloride ions are started after the four weeks standard curing of concrete. The further hydration of cement and reduction of chloride diffusivity during submerged penetration period are ignored. To overcome this weak point, this paper presents a numerical procedure to analyze simultaneously cement hydration reaction and chloride ion penetration process. First, using a cement hydration model, degree of hydration and phase volume fractions of hardening concrete are determined. Second, the dependences of chloride diffusivity and chloride binding capacity on age of concrete are clarified. Third, chloride profiles in hardening concrete are calculated. The proposed numerical procedure is verified by using chloride penetration test results of concrete with different mixing proportions.

염화물 고정화능력의 중요성에도 불구하고 고정화능력을 측정하는 것은 어려우며 특히, 이미 건설되어 공용중인 구조물에서는 더욱 어렵다. 실제로 고정염화물을 측정하는 과정은 온도, 시료의 분말도, 공극수 추출기법 등과 같은 환경적 요인에 의해 큰 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 X-선 회절분석법(XRD; X-ray diffraction)을 이용하여 콘크리트 내 염화물 이온의 고정화능력을 정량화하는 방법에 대해 중점을 두고 연구를 진행하였다. 염화물의 고정능력 isotherm은 물/시멘트비, 양생기간, 결합재 종류에 영향을 받으며 Langmuir isotherm 을 통하여 일단 결정된 고정염화물(Friedel 염)은 XRD를 이용하여 동시에 분석을 진행한다. XRD 그래프에서 나타난 고정염화물량의 피크 강도와 측정된 고정염화물의 총량의 관계를 결정한다. 결과적으로 양생기간이 증가될수록, 물/시멘트비가 감소될수록 고정화 능력은 증가하였다.

The chloride threshold level (CTL) in mixed concrete containing, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), pulverized fuel ash (PFA) ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), and silica fume (SF) is important for study on corrosion of reinforced concrete structures. The CTL is defined as a critical content of chloride at the steel depth of the steel which causes the breakdown of the passive film. The criterion of the CTL represented by total chloride content has been used due to convenience and practicality. In order to demonstrate a relationship between the CTL by total chloride content and the CTL by free chloride content, corrosion test and chloride binding capacity test were carried out. In corrosion test, Mortar specimens were cast using OPC, PFA, GGBS and SF, chlorides were admixed ranging 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0% by weight of binder. All specimens were cured 28 days, and then the corrosion rate was measured by the Tafel's extrapolation method. In chloride binding capacity, paste specimens were casting using OPC, PFA, GGBS and SF, chlorides were admixed ranging 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0% by weight of binders. At 28days, solution mixed with the powder of ground specimens was used to measure binding capacity. All specimens of both experiments were wrapped in polythene film to avoid leaching out of chloride and hydroxyl ions. As a result, the CTL by total chloride content ranged from 0.36-1.44% by weight of binders and the CTL by free chloride content ranged from 0.14-0.96%. Accordingly, the difference was ranging, from 0.22 to 0.48% by weight of binder. The order of difference for binder is OPC > 10% SF > 30% PFA > 60% GGBS.

Deterioration of reinforced concrete structures due to salt corrosion is a phenomenon that can be easily seen, and the main reason for deterioration is chloride ion. Therefore, researches are actively conducted to control chlorine ion penetration worldwide. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the chloride ion fixation capacity of Portland cement paste containing Hydrotalcite. For this purpose, cement paste containing 0%, 2.5%, and 5% of Hydrotalcite was sealed and cured for 28 days, and the cured cement paste was crushed. Chloride ion solution was prepared at a concentration of 0.5M using NaCl, and the powdered cement paste was reacted for a specific time in aqueous chloride ion solution. After the reaction, the concentration of the chloride ion aqueous solution was measured using a silver nitrate potentiometric titrator, and the reacted cement paste was analyzed using XRD and FT-IR.

To improve the detection of methicillin resistant staphylococci, lowered incubation temperature (30.deg.) and inclusion of sodium chloride in media have been empirically recommended. However, in this study, we found that sodium chloride in Peptone-Yeast Extract-K$\_$2/HPO$\_$4/ (PYK) medium decreased methicillin minimum inhibitory concentrations. Divalent cations were shown to restore the expression of staphylococcal methicillin resistance. However, when it was determined by efficiency of plating, sodium chloride increased methicillin resistance expression on agar medium in which higher divalent cations were contained in the agar medium. The decrease of minimum inhibitory concentrations at 30.deg.C by sodium chloride occurred in Brain Heart Infusion but did not occur in other media investigated. Interestingly, both PYK and Brain Heart Infusion media had peptone, which contain cholic acids having detergent activities. Inclusion of sodium chloride in PYK caused a higher rate of autolysis. Penicillin binding protein 2a that has a low affinity to beta-lactam antibiotics, was highly inducible in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis strains. In this study, we found that autolysins that are activated by the sodium chloride decreased the minimum inhibitory concentration at 30.deg.C, and peptidoglycan is weakened due to the presence of methicillin. Peptone in the media may aggravate the fragile cells. However, stabilization due to the presence of divalent cations and production of penicilin binding protein 2a increase the survival of staphylococci.
