Carbonation Resistance of Cement-Based Materials Improved by Nitrite by Hao Zhang, Luqing Cheng, Jingsheng Pan, Guodong Xu, Xuyan Shen, Song Mu, Jingshun Cai, Jianzhong Liu, Jinxiang Hong, Zhiqiang Yang, Zhonglai Yi, Huajian Li, Ying Zhou

“…The result indicates that the addition of Ca(NO3)2 improves the carbonation resistance property of cement-based materials if the hydration of cement pastes and microstructure is modified earlier without affecting the late hydration process. In addition, the refined pores and higher tortuosity cut down the channels, thereby impeding the ingress of carbon dioxide gas into cementitious materials, as confirmed by BET and water vapor sorption. …”
