Additional Porosity as a Side Effect of Polycarboxylate Addition and Its Influence on Concrete’s Scaling Resistance

A side effect of using modified polycarboxylates to liquefy a concrete mix is additional pores in the concrete. They change the air void system in hardened concretes, and can be used to evaluate the freeze−thaw resistance of concretes. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact o...
