Abstract
The paper deals with evaluation and comparison of the effect of two substances on reduction of concrete absorbability and increasing the durability. In four tests the effect of hydrophobic impregnation of investigated substances on various properties of test specimens was examined. The penetration depth, the rate of water absorption and alkali resistance, drying ratio and weight loss after freeze-and-thaw cycles in sodium chloride solution were the followed parameters. The positive effect of both substances on the final durability of concrete was confirmed.
期刊介绍:
Defect and Diffusion Forum (formerly Part A of ''''Diffusion and Defect Data'''') is designed for publication of up-to-date scientific research and applied aspects in the area of formation and dissemination of defects in solid materials, including the phenomena of diffusion. In addition to the traditional topic of mass diffusion, the journal is open to papers from the area of heat transfer in solids, liquids and gases, materials and substances. All papers are peer-reviewed and edited. Members of Editorial Boards and Associate Editors are invited to submit papers for publication in “Defect and Diffusion Forum” . Authors retain the right to publish an extended and significantly updated version in another periodical.
