Abstract

There are many different grades of kaolinite clays around the world. Low-grade kaolinite clay is more abundant than high-grade kaolinite clay in various regions. To aim towards utilisation of low-grade kaolinite clay with an original kaolinite content of about 40% to produce calcined clay, the durability properties of concrete incorporating calcined clay produced from high-grade kaolinite clay or high kaolinite content (commercially available metakaolin or CC1) and calcined clay produced from a low-grade kaolinite clay (CC2) were investigated. Concrete mixtures were designed to have a water-to-binder ratio of 0.60. A fly ash-to-binder ratio of 0.20 and calcined kaolinite clay-to-binder ratios of 0.10 and 0.20 were studied. The chloride penetration resistance and electrical resistivity of the concrete were assessed and mercury intrusion porosimetry was utilised to evaluate its pore structure. The test results revealed that concrete with CC1 and CC2 exhibited superior chloride penetration resistance and chloride binding capacity than ordinary Portland cement and FA20 concretes. Moreover, using a higher calcined clay-to-binder ratio resulted in a more refined pore structure, which significantly enhanced the chloride resistance of the concrete. Although CC2 revealed a lower performance than CC1 in improving chloride resistance, its performance was superior compared to fly ash.
