Effect of Metakaolin on the Diffusion Properties of Chloride Ions in Cement Mortar under the Coupling Effect of Multiple Factors in Marine Environment by Yezhen Yuan, Kaimin Niu, Bo Tian, Lijuan Kong, Lihui Li

“…To address the problem of chloride ion transport in cement concrete in marine environment, this study investigates the effect of metakaolin dosage on the chloride ion diffusion resistance of mortar and its mechanism by testing the chloride ion binding capacity and microstructure of mortar under the coupling effect of chlorine salt-sulfate-carbonation multiple factors. The results show that the coupling of sulfate or carbonation reduces chloride ion transport to some extent compared with single chlorine salt attack, while the three-factor coupled environment promotes free chloride ion diffusion. …”
