Abstract

The repair of reinforced concrete structures affected by carbonation-induced corrosion is essential for the preservation of existing buildings. The chemical realkalization, using cementitious layers applied to the surface of carbonated concrete is a commonly used method to restore the passivity of the embedded steel reinforcement. Despite its practical relevance and low implementation effort, the mechanisms contributing to the realkalization process, especially when using low-CO2 binders, remain insufficiently understood. In the present study, the applicability of hybrid alkaline-activated binders (HAAB), which enable a reduction of the clinker content while simultaneously adding additional alkaline components through alkaline activation, is investigated. Under defined exposure conditions, realkalization depths of up to 30 mm were achieved using HAAB. The application of alternative pH indicators allows a more precise analysis of the spatial and temporal evolution of the realkalized area, highlighting the critical role of the initial suction phase. The results provide new insights into the interaction between the binder chemistry and the realkalization effectiveness as well as the importance of the availability of alkalis.

杂化碱活化粘合剂在化学实化中的应用
受碳化腐蚀影响的钢筋混凝土结构的修复对现存建筑的保护至关重要。化学实化,即在碳化混凝土表面涂上胶凝层,是一种常用的恢复预埋钢筋钝化的方法。尽管其实际意义和低实施努力,促进实现过程的机制,特别是当使用低二氧化碳粘合剂时,仍然没有充分了解。在本研究中,研究了混合碱活化粘结剂(HAAB)的适用性,该粘结剂可以通过碱活化降低熟料含量,同时添加额外的碱组分。在规定的曝光条件下,使用HAAB实现了高达30毫米的实现深度。替代pH指标的应用允许对实现区域的时空演变进行更精确的分析,突出了初始吸入阶段的关键作用。这些结果为粘合剂化学与实现有效性之间的相互作用以及碱可用性的重要性提供了新的见解。
