Penetration of concrete with various linseed oil/mineral spirits mixtures
AbstractField impregnation techniques were simulated in the laboratory using concrete cylinders (different water:cement ratios) dried either in a forced air oven or with a gas-fired infrared heater after which they were impregnated (by ponding) with different linseed oil/mineral spirits mixtures. Mass uptake was obtained for impregnation with various mineral spirits concentrations and impregnation temperatures. Generally as the water:cement ratio, impregnation temperature, and mineral spirits concentration increase, the final mass uptake (or rate of mass uptake) and penetration depth also increase. Further, the infrared dried specimens displayed a deeper final penetration depth than the ovendried specimens. Regression analysis produced equations that predict the final penetration depth in the concrete as a function of percent mineral spirits in the linseed oil mixture.
