Estudio del proceso de descalcificación en morteros degradados en NH4NO3 empleando técnicas ultrasónicas

Abstract

[EN] Water takes part in most if not all of the degradation processes experienced by cement-based materials during their service-life. The effect of pure water usually is not of primary concern as it involves very lengthy degradation diffusion controlled processes; aqueous solutions are more aggressive, promoting increased solubility of matrix components and microstructure modification due to leaching. The ability to monitor such changes nondestructively presents a number of challenges as, often, conventional characterisation techniques require sample preparation likely to modify the properties of interest. In this study, ultrasonic pulse velocity profiles have provided a nondestructive means of monitoring microstructural changes during aggressive leaching of blastfurnace slag cement mortars with ammonium nitrate solutions. These data are compared with corresponding analyses by destructive techniques including mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), water porosity measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). By analysing degraded ultrasonic velocity profiles it has been possible to calculate degraded depths in the samples, which correlate well with those results obtained by conventional methods.

[ES] El agua interviene en la mayor parte de los procesos de deterioro que pueden sufrir los materiales cementicios durante su vida útil. El efecto de las aguas desionizadas no suele tenerse en cuenta dado que producen procesos controlados por la difusión y generan un deterioro poco apreciable a corto plazo. La posibilidad monitorizar esta degradación de un modo no destructivo es un reto importante, dado que las técnicas habituales de caracterización implican una alteración física del material. En este trabajo, mediante la aplicación de técnicas no destructivas de inspección ultrasónica, se ha caracterizado el proceso de degradación sufrido por probetas de mortero sumergidas en una solución de nitrato de amonio. Estos resultados fueron comparados con los obtenidos en la caracterización destructiva, empleando, porosimetría de intrusión de mercurio (PIM), porosidad accesible al agua, difracción de rayos-X (DRX) y análisis de microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB). El análisis de los perfiles de velocidad ultrasónica de las muestras ha permitido calcular las profundidades degradadas, con una buena correlación entre estos resultados y los obtenidos por técnicas destructivas.
