Integral hydrophobic treatment is the most effective method to prolong the service life of the concrete by resisting the transport of water containing aggressive ions. The hydrophobicity phenomenon of cementitious materials with carboxylic acid type admixture has been presented, and experimental studies, including water adsorption, amount of hydration products, and pore system, are conducted to reveal the hydrophobicity mechanism. It is reported that cementitious materials containing hydrophobic admixture present excellent water resistance ability, and the experimental results of nitrogen adsorption isotherm show that carboxylic acid type admixture addition increases pore volume and surface area of cement pastes. In addition, the fractal geometry theory is applied to reveal the relation between the pore structure and the permeability coefficient of cement pastes with a hydrophobic agent. In conclusion, the high tortuosity fractal dimension and the hydrophobicity of the pore surface result in water resistance when the cementitious system is mixed with a new type of hydrophobic admixture. |
