Abstract

In this study, the self-healing effect of a fiber-reinforced cement composite (FRCC) was examined using a drying-wetting test and an outdoor exposure test. The influence of various curing conditions on the self-healing effect of the FRCC was also investigated. The effect of self-healing was evaluated using a permeability coefficient and by investigating the cracks using a optical microscope. The results confirmed that the FRCC was capable of self-healing under a long wetting time and a low drying temperature. In addition, watertight performance by self-healing was shown to have a significant influence on wetting time. Meanwhile, this self-healing effect was enhanced by hydration as a result of rainfall when the FRCC was put under actual environmental conditions. Moreover, it was determined that cracking self-healing can be improved by using the appropriate admixture materials.

양생조건의 차이가 섬유보강 시멘트계 복합재료(FRCC)의 자기치유에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해, 건습 반복시험 및 옥외 폭로시험을 실시하여 FRCC의 자기치유 효과에 대해 검토했다. 투수계수 및 마이크로스코프에 의한 균열조사에 의해 FRCC의 자기치유 효과에 대해 평가한 결과, 수중에의 침지시간이 길고, 건조온도가 낮은 경우 균열의 자기치유 효과는 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 자기치유에 있어서의 수밀성능은 습윤 시간에 크게 영향을 받는 것을 확인했다. 한편, 실환경 조건에 있어서 강우에 의한 수분 공급에 의해 자기치유는 진전하는 것을 확인했으며, 혼화재료를 적절히 병용하여 사용하는 것으로 균열의 자기치유 성능을 향상할 수 있다고 판단된다.
