Abstract

The performance of foam concrete is greatly affected by its internal pores. This study systematically scanned samples of foam concrete with different densities, and analyzed the size and number of pores and their effects on the mechanical properties and sulfate resistance of foam concrete through software. The research results indicate that due to the different pore sizes are antagonistic to each other, there exists an optimal pore size range for both compressive strength and resistance to sulfate corrosion. The optimal pore size for compressive strength is 1-80kμm2, and the optimal pore size for sulfate resistance is 1-50kμm2.
