Carriers of Healing Agents in Biological Self-Healing Concrete
Concrete is the most widely used material in civil engineering, but due to its inherent brittleness, the generation of cracks easily occurs. Crack healing is an effective method for restoring the mechanical properties of concrete and improving its durability. Of all the current concrete crack healin...

description | Concrete is the most widely used material in civil engineering, but due to its inherent brittleness, the generation of cracks easily occurs. Crack healing is an effective method for restoring the mechanical properties of concrete and improving its durability. Of all the current concrete crack healing methods, microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation technology is an incredibly promising crack self-healing strategy that has received widespread attention in the field of concrete crack repair. As the biological self-healing agent has difficulty resisting the high alkali and high calcium environment in concrete, protection is required when it is used in concrete cracks. |
