Engineered/strain-hardening cementitious composites (ECC/SHCC) with an ultra-high compressive strength over 210 MPa (2021, background): “For ECC materials, a finer crack width (typically < 100 μm) has been shown critical for its self-healing and durability performance [38].”
On the use of recycled tire rubber to develop low E-modulus ECC for durable concrete repairs (2013, background): “In addition, crack width smaller than 50 lm, preferably below 10 lm was found to facilitate self-healing behavior in cracked ECC [25], which can further improve the transport properties and corresponding service life of ECC repairs.”
Internal curing of engineered cementitious composites for prevention of early age autogenous shrinkage cracking (2009, background): “Moreover, the lower magnitude of crackwidth is expected to promote self-healing behavior, and thus the transport properties in cracked composites [30–37].”
