Quantifying the water donation potential of commercial and corn starch hydrogels in a cementitious matrix
In this study, we introduce a new methodology to quantify the internal curing potential of hydrogels in a cementitious matrix. The swollen Super Absorbent Polymers (SAPs) and newly synthesized corn-starch hydrogels are investigated by embedding a capsule filled with swollen hydrogel in a cement mort...
