ABSTRACT
This study presents the results
ofinvestigation ofthe effect of nickel(ii)sulfate hexahydrate on the durability
properties of concrete in salty and alkaline environment. A concrete mix of
1:2:4 regimes ° (cement:sand:gravel) with water content. The highest weight of
concrete at 0% Nickel(II)sulfate (NiSCH) is given as 7.55kg, at 1% is given as
7.79kg, at 3% Nickel(II)sulfate (NiSCU) is given as 7.85kg and at 6%
NickeI(II)sulfate (NiSCU) is given as 7.89kg, therforen the weight of concrete
increasead as the percentage of Nickel(II)sulfate (NiSCU) increased which shows
that modification of concrete with NiSO4 can improve the durability of concrete
in alkaline and salty environment Submerging the concrete in alkaline and salty
environment also caused an increase in the length and width of the concrete
which shows that NiSO4 ability to react with calcium hydroxide helps to
strengthen concrete and can also reduce the permeability and porosity of
concrete, hence, unwanted substances will be reduced in finding their way into tire
concrete matrix.
