Efectos de la penetración del ion cloruros en morteros reforzados con fibras de abacá a corto y largo plazo sometidas a proceso de envejecimiento.

Abstract

This work aims to study the permeability of two types of mortar: conventional mortar and mortar reinforced with abaca fibers previously treated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH 3%) in the presence of chloride ions by means of the corrosion test(ASTM C1202, 2012). For this analysis, sample processes of each type of mortar were carried out, of which certain specimens will be subjected to accelerated aging by the second W/D method. In addition, the behavior of conventional mortar and reinforced mortar is also observed in the tests. of bending and compression. The samples are tested in the short and long term (twenty-eight and fifty-six days). The process that was carried out throughout the work is shown in detail, such as: the flow test at the time of making the samples; and a comparison will also be made of the results obtained from the different tests carried out.
