With the effect of silica fume, slag and polypropylene fiber on the anti-penetration of tunnel concrete by means of NEL test, XRD and SEM, some conclusions has been drawn. The affection on the anti-penetration capability of the four factors is capacity of silica fume>portion of short and long fiber> fiber VOL Portion>length of Fiber. Fiber capacity of 0.15% is still not good enough for the anti-penetration capability of concrete. While that of 0.5% has exceed the maximum, and the fiber tends to assemble together. Silica fume may greatly enhance the anti-penetration capability of concrete, while the relationship between them is not direct proportion. The average of chloric ion pervasion coefficient with 8% capacity of silica fume is the lowest. Slag may reacted with other component to generate lots of C-A-H. When reacted with free chloride ion, C-A-H may form friedel salt which may also enhance the Anti-penetration capability of concrete.展开更多
