摘要: Cracking is a major concern in building applications. Cracks may arise from shrinkage, freeze/thawing and/or structural stresses, amongst others. Several solutions can be found but superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) seem to interesting counteract these problems. At an early age, the absorbed water by SAPs used mitigate autogenous and plastic shrinkage. The formed macro pores increase freeze/thaw resistance. swelling upon ingress seal crack intruding fluids regain overall water-tightness. latter promote healing. use of thus very interesting. This review paper summarizes current research gives critical note towards cementitious materials.
