In this study, three levels of solid capsules were prepared according to the composition ratio of core materials for the crystal growth type self-healing solid capsule, and a cement mortar was prepared with the crystal growth type self-healing solid capsule. The prepared solid capsule was mixed with 3% of the cement mass to evaluate the healing properties according to the crack induction age of the cement mortar. As a result of test, the crack healing properties according to the crack induction age of cement mortar mixed of solid capsules, it was confirmed that the self-healing performance of the cement mortar with the solid capsules was increased self-healing performance of 7 days than 28 days. This is because the unhydrated binder remains.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to verify the property of self-healing, and to propose an appropriate duration for wet curing of bridge deck concrete overlays. METHODS : In this study, reinforced bars were inserted into concrete molds in order to prevent brittle fracture and induced cracks in the concrete resulting from indirect tension mode. The induced time of concrete cracking was 3 to 7 days, following which the concrete specimens were cured in water. The resulting concrete crack width was measured using image analysis equipment. Additionally, the self-healing tests were performed using the following three mixtures: OPC, SFC, and LMC. RESULTS : Concrete mixtures with crack widths of $150{\mu}m$ or lower were completely healed by Day 28. Hydrates of crack fills were found to be the calcium carbonate. CONCLUSIONS : The cement-based mixtures exhibit properties of self-healing. Considering these properties, it is necessary to increase the curing duration of concrete overlays for bridge decks.

The paper presents experimental results of self-healing effects of OPC-GGBFS paste with cracked and uncracked specimens. The self-healing of cracked specimens is processes of crack closing with re-hydration of unhydrated in crack surface. The OPC paste with GGBFS replacement ratios of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% were prepared having a constant water-binder ratios of 0.5. The OPC-GGBFS paste specimens immersed in tap-water and sea-water. The temperature of tap and sea-water was $5^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$. The cracked specimens after deterioration were immersed for 60 days. The relationship between self-healing effect and age-effect was calculate based upon the experimental results. The self-healing effect was measured in ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) before and after loading. When the relative change rate of UPV is increases with the increase in GGBFS replacement ratios. Moreover, the self-healing effect is increased with the temperature of tap-water is increase. But the cracked specimens immersed in sea-water was unclear effects of different temperature. Furemore, most of the healing for OPC-GGBFS specimens immersed in tap-water and sea-water occurred during the first 30 days. The self-healing effect until 30 days is higher than that the age-effect. After 30 days, self-effect and age-effect was largely decreases. SEM/EDS analysis of crack on the surface of the specimens in tap-water were covered with aragonite, and sea-water were covered with brucite.

This paper aims to evaluate the quality characteristics and healing performance of precast concrete incorporating self-healing technology as a key technique for the construction of smart cities. The study found that precast concrete mixed with hybrid capsules exhibited a tendency of reduced slump and air content, impacting the quality characteristics. Specifically, the slump decreased by up to 14 %, and the air content by up to 9 %. Moreover, the inclusion of hybrid capsules in the concrete resulted in a maximum decrease of 16 % in compressive strength and 18 % in flexural strength. However, the introduction of hybrid capsules significantly enhanced the crack healing performance. The assessment through water permeability tests showed that the healing rate of 0.3 mm crack width after a 28-day healing period improved as the mixing ratio increased, with the healing rates at 1 %, 3 %, and 5 % hybrid capsule mixtures observed to increase by approximately 16 %, 25 %, and 32 %, respectively.

Recently, the researches of self-healing concrete technology are being carried out actively due to the advent of importance for the maintenance of concrete structures. A water permeability test has been widely used for the evaluation of self-healing performance. However, it is difficult to compare tests results since there is no standard test method related to the self-healing. A standard method for measuring the crack width does not exist neither though the self-healing performance is significantly influenced by the initial crack width. In this study, the effect of water head and crack width on water flow was investigated using a constant water head permeability test equipment. The correlation equation between the initial crack width and water flow was suggested through the regression analysis of test data, and the predicted crack widths agree well with the real crack widths measured using microscopy.

Thermal analysis properties and adhesive properties of self-healing agents were evaluated through differential scanning calorimetry, reaction heat measurement, and adhesive shear test. D1E0, D3E1, D1E1, D1E3, and D0E1, depending on the mixing ratio of DCPD and ENB, were considered as self-healing agents. The amount of Grubbs' catalyst, depending on the type of self-healing agents, was varied from 0.1 wt% to 1.5 wt%. In the case of DCPD, the polymerization reaction occurred faster and the stabilized adhesive strength increased as the amount of catalyst increased; however, a large amount of catalyst was required. ENB had excellent reactivity with a small amount of the catalyst; however, high reaction heat was observed at the early stage of polymerization. Thermal analysis properties and adhesive properties of self-healing agents can be controlled by varying a mixing ratio of DCPD and ENB. Among the self-healing agents used for this study, the D3E1 would be one of the most preferable candidates with regard to maximum adhesive strength, reaching time to maximum adhesive strength, stabilized adhesive strength, and reaction heat.

The objective of this study is to investigate the self-healing properties of ternary blended cement(TBC) paste made with OPC, GGBFS and FA. The influence of OPC-GGBFS-FA on the self-healing ability of ternary blended cement paste was researched by ultrasonic pulse velocity(UPV) measurement. The TBC paste with GGBFS-FA replacement ratios of 20%, 40% and 60% were prepared having a constant water-cementitious materials ratios os 0.5. The research focuses on behavior after 28days(after loading). Four-point bending tests are used to pre-cracked the prismatic specimens at 28days. For specimens (uncracked and cracked) submerged in tap-water and sea-water until 60days. According to the experimental results, the TBC paste system has self-healing ability increased when the fraction of GGBFS increased. Because GGBFS and FA continues to hydrate after 28days, it is likely that hydrated products from GGBFS and FA may modify microstructures, seal these cracks. From these results, it is clear that the crack in all samples experience self-healing and that this occurs mostly in the first 30days of submerging. Futhermore, most of the healing for both specimens of submerged in sea-water and tap-water occurred during the first 30days. Sea-water submerged specimens healed cracks as fast as those in tap-water. Differences in healing effects of submerged in sea-water and tap-water may be attributed to the presence of specific sea-water ions. Therefore, self-healing effects considered age-effects was more strong effect occurred mostly in the first 30days, and then gradually weaken.
