Corrosion Resistance of Concrete Reinforced by Zinc Phosphate Pretreated Steel Fiber in the Presence of Chloride Ions

摘要

This paper aims to provide new insight into a method to improve the chloride ion corrosion resistance of steel fiber reinforced concrete. The steel fiber was pretreated by zinc phosphate before the preparation of the fiber reinforced concrete. Interfacial bond strength, micro-hardness and micro-morphology properties were respectively analyzed in the steel fiber reinforced concrete before and after the chloride corrosion cycle test. The results show that the chloride ion corrosion resistance of the steel fiber was enhanced by zinc phosphate treatment. Compared to plain steel fiber reinforced concrete under chloride ion corrosion, the interfacial bond strength of the concrete prepared by steel fiber with phosphating treatment increased by 15.4%. The thickness of the interface layer between the pretreated steel fiber and cement matrix was reduced by 50%. The micro-hardness of the weakest point in the interface area increased by 54.2%. The micro-morphology of the interface area was almost unchanged before and after the corrosion. The steel fiber reinforced concrete modified by zinc phosphate can not only maintain the stability of the microstructure when corroded by chloride ion but also presents good bearing capacity.
