Improvement in freeze-thaw durability of recycled aggregate permeable concrete with silane modification
Graphical abstract Display Omitted
Highlights Silane emulsion modification was used to improve the compressive strength of RA permeable concrete. Silane emulsion modification was used to improve freeze–thaw durability of RA permeable concrete. Mechanism of silane modification and freeze–thaw failure were verified. Microstructure of cement matrix and ITZ were investigated based on BSE-IA technology.
Abstract Currently, there are few effective methods for improving the freeze–thaw durability of recycled aggregate (RA) permeable concrete without reducing the strength or permeability. Thus, this study aims to improve the freeze–thaw durability of recycled aggregate permeable concrete without the degradation of strength and permeability. Accordingly, two silane emulsion modification methods, namely the surface modification of recycled aggregate and integral modification of cement matrix, were used to raise the freeze–thaw durability. The compressive strength, permeability coefficient, freeze–thaw durability of recycled aggregate permeable concrete were measured. The characteristics of interfacial transition zone (ITZ) and cement matrix were investigated to analyse the modification mechanism. The results indicate that surface modification of recycled aggregate can increase both the compressive strength and freeze–thaw durability of recycled aggregate permeable concrete more effectively than the integral modification of cement matrix. This study provides an effective method to improve the comprehensive performance of recycled aggregate permeable concrete.
