In water conservancy and transportation engineering, self-healing cement has been widely used. This paper researches the optimal water-cement ratio of self-healing cement mortar to obtain the best basic performance, and on this basis, researches the occasional effect of self-healing agent and fibers on the mechanical properties of cement mortar. In addition, the research on the shrinkage characteristics and impermeability of cement mortar by self-healing agent was carried out to provide the basis for the curing methods of bacterial cement in the project. Finally, the microstructure of self-healing cement provides a theoretical basis for the macroscopic performance. The results show that the best water-cement ratio of the self-healing cement mortar is 0.42, and the fiber can effectively improve the toughness of the material. In addition, bacterial can increase the auto-shrinkage and impermeability of cement. These results will offer valuable experience for experimenters to assist the experiment work.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
