“…And some studies employed calcium nitrate [26][27][28][29][30], sodium nitrite [31], sodium silicate [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] and silica [40] as healing materials. While other studies investigated effect of other materials on the self-sealing mechanism in different cementation materials, like M-sand material [41], expansive powder [42][43][44], cement with various particle size distributions [45], silica fume [46], fibers [47], LWA [48], and SMA [49], and others use bacteria to fabricate SHC [50][51][52][53][54][55]. Besides, many studies combine some of these techniques [56].…”
