Chloride binding of mortars with mineral admixtures and relation with compressive strength and carbonation
The first aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of the cement type and the proportioning of fine mineral admixtures on the chloride binding of mortars. An experimental approach is used to determine the binding capacity of more than twenty mixtures prepared using Portland cement or blast furnace slag cement and fine calcite or fine quartz or silica fume at various amounts. The second aim is to correlate the chloride binding capacity of mortars with the compressive strength and the carbonation depth measured after three years exposure to natural outdoor conditions. The results show that the cement type is the main parameter controlling the chloride binding of mortars. The effect of the mineral admixtures varies according to their nature and proportioning. There is not marked correlation between the chloride binding of the mortars and the carbonation depth or the compressive strength.
