요약 | In this study, the effect of internal pores formed by a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) was analyzed by evaluating the compressive strength, chloride penetration depth, drying shrinkage, and pore size distribution of SAP-containing concrete, while securing workability using a water-reducing agent (WRA). The experimental results showed that the amount of WRA necessary increased as the amount of SAP added increased, and that the compressive strength was the highest when the SAP content was 1.5% of the concrete mix. Drying shrinkage tended to decrease as the SAP content increased, and it decreased by approximately 31–41% when the SAP content was 2.0% compared to that of the reference mix. The SAP expanded by approximately three times inside concrete, and it was distributed within the internal pores of air-entrained concrete. The optimal SAP content in concrete mix was 1.5%, and an SAP content of 2.0% or higher adversely affected the workability and compressive strength. |
