Effect of internal curing by super-absorbent polymer on hydration of hydrophobic cement-based material

Abstract Hydrophobic cement-based materials are a primary focus in current research due to their potential applications. Nevertheless, the presence of a hydrophobic layer often impedes the hydration process, resulting in reduced concrete strength. In this study, the use of super-absorbent polymer (S...
