Synthesized hydrogel co-polymerized with hydrophobic n-butyl methacrylate and its impact on shrinkage mitigation and crack resistance of cement paste

Internal curing using super-absorbent polymers (SAPs) is an effective method to mitigate the autogenous shrinkage of cement paste. However, conventional SAPs, such as acrylamide/acrylic sodium copolymer, often leave voids in situ after water release, causing significant strength reduction. To addres...
