摘要
This study experimentally investigated the autogenous healing performances of cementitious materials incorporating superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) after exposure to eight cycles of wet/dry conditions. In each cycle, cracked cement paste specimens with different SAP dosages were exposed to wet conditions for 1 h, during which capillary water absorption tests were conducted, and then exposed to dry conditions for 47 h. The test results reveal that the initial sorptivity values of the reference, 0.5% SAP, 1.0% SAP, and 1.5% SAP specimens after one cycle were decreased by 22.9%, 36.8%, 42.8%, and 46.3%, respectively, after eight cycles. X-ray micro-computed tomography analysis showed that the crack volume percentages filled with healing products were 1.1%, 1.6%, 2.2%, and 2.9% in the reference, 0.5% SAP, 1.0% SAP, and 1.5% SAP specimens, respectively. As the cycling was repeated, the reduction ratio of the initial sorptivity and the quantity of healing products were increased with increases in SAP dosage. Furthermore, more healing products were distributed near SAP voids than in other sections in the specimens. This study demonstrates that the incorporation of SAPs in cementitious materials can enhance the autogenous healing performances of materials exposed to cyclic wet/dry conditions.
