Thermodynamic modelling of the reactions of self-healing agents and the chemical binding of aggressive ions in seawater

In this study, a new concept on self healing of cracks that the ingressive ions in the crack is chemically bound to improve the self-healing efficiency was proposed for cracked cementitious materials in a marine environment. Thermodynamic modeling was performed to determine the appropriate masses and ratio of Ca2+ and Al3+ provided by chemical...
