Experimental Procedure7.1 Prepare a cement slurry consisting of 1000 g of waterand
18、200 g cement. Mix thoroughly, stir for 60 min and filter.NOTE 2An admixture should be added at a quantity consistent with itsaddition rate in concrete. Water measured at 35 to 965 mL is equivalent to5 L/m3in concrete. If other dosages are desired, proportion them based onthis ratio.7.2 Filter, and a
19、dd 4 g/Lcalcium hydroxide and stir a further30 min.7.3 Setup a standard electrochemical cell according to TestMethod G5and fill it with 900 mL of filtered slurry solution.Purge the cell with carbon dioxide free air.Air flow rate shouldbe at least 300 cc/min.7.4 Degrease the metal sample by cleaning
20、ultrasonically inhexane for 2 min. If an ultrasonic bath is not available, soak thesamples in hexane and wipe dry. Make sure the sample isthoroughly dried before mounting it on the electrode holder.7.5 While purging the cell with carbon dioxide free air,precondition the electrode in the solution for
21、 24 h.7.5.1 Add NaCl to the solution obtained in 7.3 (having beenpurged for 24 h with CO2-free air), to obtain a 0.5 or a 1Msolution, and continue to stir and purge for a further 4 h. After4 h, stop stirring and continue purging for a another 20 h.NOTE 3The multi-laboratory test was run at the two d

The higher chloride level wouldbe representative of a more severe exposure.7.5.2 Measure the open circuit potential.7.5.3 Measure the polarization resistance (Rp) by recordingthe potentiodynamic polarization curve at a scan rate of0.167 mV/
23、s, from 20 mV to +20 mV versus open circuitpotential.7.5.4 Plot the polarization resistance curve as a linearpotential-current density plot as shown in Practice G3.7.5.5 Determine the polarization resistance Rp, as the tan-gent of the curve at i = 0, as described in Test Method G59.The corrosion rat
24、e is expressed as 1/Rpin S/cm2.NOTE 4An example of a polarization resistance curve is given in Fig.X1.4.8. Interpretation of Results8.1 An admixture is behaving as a corrosion inhibitor in thistest method if the average log10(1/Rp) value is 1.0 or less thanthat of the chloride only average.8.2 If th
25、e admixture does not reduce average 1/Rpby anorder of magnitude another test method is needed to determineif it is an inhibitor.8.3 An admixture that increases average 1/Rpby an order ofmagnitude over a slurry without chloride or inhibitor iscorrosive.NOTE 5The change in log10(1/Rp) by 1.0 is an ord
26、er of magnitudechange in 1/Rp. Log values are useful in comparing corrosion rates sincerates from different specimens or conditions can differ by orders ofmagnitude making a linear scale less useful.9.

Precision and Bias510.1 Based on the pooled estimates of precision, the follow-ing statement of precision and bias can be made:10.1.1 Interlaboratory Test ProgramAn interlaboratorystudy of a pore solution test for corrosion inhibiting admixturesf

29、esign and analysis of the study.10.1.2 Single-Operator PrecisionThe single operatorstandard deviation of the logarithm to the base 10 of a singletest result is 0.36. Therefore, log10(1/Rp) values of two properlyconducted tests by the same operator should not differ by morethan 1.0.10.1.3 Interlabora
30、tory PrecisionThe interlaboratory stan-dard deviation of the logarithm to the base 10 of a single testresult is 0.44. Therefore, log10(1/Rp) values of two properlyconducted tests in different laboratories should not differ bymore than 1.24.3The sole source of supply of the apparatus known to the com

34、he precision of the results obtained bythis test method was derived from an interlaboratory test withtwo samples for each molarity tested, per laboratory.

35、re. Results are shown in the attached Table Afor 1/Rpmeasurements. Values of repeatability (Sr, r), andreproducibility (SR, R) are for the logarithm (base 10) of 1/Rp,where Sr, r, SR, and R are defined as follows:Sr= repeatability standard deviation log(S/cm2 (1s),r = 95 % repeatability limit within
36、 a laboratory log(S/cm2 (2ds),SR= reproducibility standard deviation log(S/cm2 (1s),andR = 95 % reproducibility limit between laboratorieslog(S/cm2 (2ds).X1.2 This study meets the minimum requirements fordetermining precision prescribed in Practice E 691 in terms ofthe number of laboratories, materi
37、als and determinations (seeTable X1.1).X1.3 Fig. X1.1 is a graph of r and R versus averagelog10(1/Rp) + 1. Because the ASTM data analysis softwaredoes not accept negative numbers, a value of 1 was added toevery log10(1/Rp) value. Adding a constant to all values doesnot change the standard deviation
38、estimates. It does, however,change the calculated averages. In Table X1.1, the averagevalues were corrected by subtracting 1 from the softwareoutput. In Fig. X1.1, the average values were not corrected.There is no indication that precision varies systematically withaverage level. Therefore, pooled e
39、stimates of precision weredetermined which should be valid over the range of 1/Rpencompassed in the interlaboratory study.X1.4 The consistency statistics for log10(1/Rp) by labora-tory and by material, are shown in Figs. X1.2 and X1.3,respectively. The h statistic examines consistency of test result
40、sfrom laboratory to laboratory. The k statistic examines consis-tency of within-laboratory precision from laboratory to labo-ratory. In these plots, the horizontal lines are the critical valuesfor h and k at the 0.5 % statistical significance level. There area couple of excursions beyond the critica
41、l values for h or k ineach plot, but there are no consistent patterns of concern in theplots. Therefore, the data appear consistent for purposes of thisanalysis.X1.5 Fig. X1.4 is an example of a polarization resistancecurve.TABLE X1.1 Statistical Analysis of Corrosion Potential DataPractice E 691 In
