In this paper, a solid capsule was prepared using a crystal growth type inorganic material capable of hydration reaction, the quality and mechanical healing properties of self-healing mortar with solid capsules were evaluated. Solid capsules were mixed 5% by mass of cement. Reloading test results of compressive load, it was found to improve about 20% on average for the natural healing effect of Plain, in the case of the elastic range, the healing rate was about 79% at the 7 days of healing age and 98% at the 28 days of healing age. Reload test results of flexural load, in the case of the elastic range, the healing rate was about 79% at the 7 days of healing age and 98% at the 28 days of healing age. Through these results, it is judged that the healing performance of solid capsules has also an effect on mechanical healing properties such as strength in addition to the durability properties obtained by the permeability test. Since the strength tends to decrease as the solid capsules are mixed, it is considered necessary to compensate.

In this paper, to evaluate the effect of SC on the crack self-healing performance and mechanical recovery performance of cement composites, encapsulated intumescent inorganic material-based solid healing materials were prepared. SC was mixed with cement composite materials to evaluate the basic properties, permeability test, and load reload test. SC slightly improved the flow of cement composites, and the compressive strength decreased by about 10 %. Also, the flexural strength decreased by about 30 %. It was found that when SC was mixed with the cement composite material by 5 %, the crack self-healing rate of Plain was improved by about 𝜟10 %. As a result of the load reload test, it was found that the mechanical recovery rate of Plain was improved by about 𝜟20 %. In addition, as a result of analyzing the correlation between the crack self-healing rate and the mechanical recovery rate by the load reload test, it is judged that the healing area of the Plain can be increased due to SC.

In this study, the healing performance of hybrid self-healing concrete was investigated by mixing bacterial pellets(BP) and solid phase capsules(SC), respectively, based on organic-inorganic self-healing material(MC). Constant water head permeability test was applied as a method of evaluating the healing performance, and the healing rate and the healed crack width calculated by the equivalent crack width were used as evaluation indicies. As a result of the water permeability test, when the initial crack width was 0.3 mm, the healing rates of MC-BP and MC-SC were 2.1~3.0 %pt higher than that of MC, and the healed crack width of hybrid concrete increased by 0.017~0.018 mm. In conclusion, it was found that the self-healing performance was not significantly improved even if the two types of healing materials are used together.
