Self-Expanding Concrete
Abstract Self-expanding concrete contains a constituent, which actively causes volumetrical enlargement of concrete during its process of hydrating, setting, and hardening. Self-expanding can compensate inherent shrinkage of Portland cement concrete and prevent cracks. It can also build up chemical prestress in concrete members/structures. The self-expanding concrete is fabricated with such expansive cements/agents as calcium sulfoaluminate (ettringite) series, lime series, and magnesia series. It has been wildly applied in even all the infrastructures with the purposes of shrinkage compensating and chemical prestressing to achieve crack preventing, water proofing, joint caulking, and self-stressing.
