Effect of Acrylic Emulsion on Drying Shrinkage, Mechanical Properties, and Hydration Behavior of UHPC Matrix
Significant drying shrinkage and early-age cracking have remained critical constraints to the broader application of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). This study attempted to address these limitations through the addition of acrylic emulsion (AE), and the influence of its content (0–10 wt.%) on the setting time,...
