内容简介

Portland-limestone cement paste specimens were stored in magnesium sulfate solution at 5°C for 6 months; the occurring microstructural changes have been monitored on a monthly basis. Extent of deterioration was quantitatively assessed with different techniques. The X-ray micro-computed tomography was employed to describe non-invasively the pore structure and extend of deterioration. X-ray powder diffraction and infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the phase changes occurred in the course of the sulfate attack. Compressive strength tests reflected the effect of the process on mechanical performance. The results indicate the rapid degradation of the system, owing, mainly, to crack formation, expansion, and finally loss of cohesion between the deteriorated parts of the specimens and the sound cement matrix, as a consequence of the formation of new phases. The progress of an irregular deterioration front was observed. The presence of complex phases (thaumasite, ettringite) was proved, however, the deteriorated parts of the specimens mostly consisted of gypsum.
