Abstract:
The development of a ionic diffusivity-porosity relation
for cement paste, soundly based on microstructure, along
with future developments in this area, are discussed.
The importance of such relations for sulfate attack and
other mechanisms of deterioration in concrete, as well
as for models of the chloride diffusivity of concrete,
are outlined.
