Highlights A experimental study is conducted to investigate the mechanism of calcium leaching of cement hydrates exposed to the sodium sulfate solution. The influences of sulfate ions concentration and environmental temperature are analyzed on calcium leaching process. The solid–liquid equilibrium curve describing calcium leaching in deionized water is extended to sodium sulfate solutions.
Abstract Calcium leaching from cement hydrates to pore solution increases the porosity and reduces the bonding strength of cement hydrates, accelerating the degradation of concrete. Calcium leaching can be quantified by solid–liquid equilibrium curves, which have been studied in deionized water or ammonium nitrate. The research of solid–liquid equilibrium curve of calcium under sulfate attack is limited and its mechanism is poorly understood. Reported here provide insights into the dissolution process of calcium from cement hydrates exposed to the sodium sulfate solution. The experimental programme examines the effects of sulfate ion concentration and temperature. An external sulfate attack (ESA) model considering the influence of calcium leaching is established and validated. The results show that, compared to deionized water, sulfate ions impact strongly the leaching process. Qualitatively, the dissolution of calcium in cement hydrates is accelerated by increasing the concentration of sulfate ions and decreasing the environmental temperature. Quantitatively, the presence of sulfate ions modifies the equilibrium curve describing calcium leaching in deionized water. In addition, the prediction results of the ESA model considering the influence of calcium leaching are in good agreement with the experimental results.
