Abstract
The resistance of hydrated cement paste (HCP) to acid attack was investigated. Three groups of blended cementitious materials were designed, binary binder A (cement and slag), ternary binder B (cement, slag and silica fume), and quaternary binder C (polymer modified ternary binder). According to a series of designed experiments, acid resistance of HCP was tested by acid consumption, mass loss and corrosion depth of specimens. In the study, ternary binder B shows superior resistance to acid attack. The advantage of polymer modification is unobvious. Furthermore, the variability of acid corrosion depth d with time t was analyzed specially for the foundation of degradation model. Kinetics equation of acid corrosion was established in form of d=K•tn to predict HCP corrosion depth at specific age, which provides available references for durability analysis and engineering design of concrete structures.
