Question

Silica fume can reduce chloride induced corrosion in reinforced concrete

Answer 1

Explanation:

Deterioration of RC structures due to chloride-induced reinforcement corrosion has been reported to be a major durability problem worldwide. ... In saturated state, chloride ions enter concrete by ionic diffusion due to concentration gradient between the exposed surface and the pore solution inside concrete.
