Protective Effect of Surface Coatings on Concrete
Three coating methods, i.e., the permeable coating, the film forming coating and the combined both were used to treat the surface of specimens. Their protective effects on concrete were investigated via the carbonation and capillary water adsorption tests. The results show that the
combined application has the optimum efficiency to prevent the diffusion and migration of CO2 and H2O into the concrete. The second is the film forming coating. The permeable coatings could reduce the water into the concrete, but hardly prevented CO2.

- Journal of the Chinese Ceramic Society (JCCS), published in Chinese and in English, is a comprehensive monthly periodical focused on the fields of inorganic and non-metallic materials. The main purpose of the JCCS is to report the latest creative achievements in research, production and design for ceramics, glass, cementing materials, refractory, artificial crystals and other non-metallic materials. JCCS is regarded as an important journal in inorganic and non-metallic materials sciences in China and has been awarded by China Association for Science and Technology. The full-text of papers in JCCS is also published by CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure). JCCS is indexed in EI Compendex, CA( Chemical Abstracts) ,SA and Ж and more than 20 databases.
