Drying Shrinkage of Concrete Containing Calcium Stearate, (Ca(C18H35O2)2), with Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) as a Binder: Experimental and Modelling Studies

Abstract: This work investigates the effect of calcium stearate (Ca(C18H35O2)2) on concrete shrinkage behaviors by using experimental testing. The test specimens are cubes with each dimension given as 100 × 100 × 285 mm for shrinkage tests and cylinders with 150 mm diameter and 300 mm height for compressive strength tests. The calcium stearate with fractions of 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3% from the weight of cement are used in the tests. The results showed that the shrinkage occurred in amounts of 0.079, 0.062, 0.065, and 0.06… Show more

“…However, the incorporation of CS does, which is significantly increase the magnitude of shrinkage strain. This result is contradicting the result obtained by Maryoto et al [17] that shows reduced shrinkage magnitude with the incorporation of CS. It might because the researchers maintain the relative humidity and temperature of 50% ± 4% and 22.8 ± 1.7 ⁰C respectively indoor.…”

“…The improvement in sorptivity and flow by incorporation of CS might because CS can react with cement and water to form a hydrophobic layer on the pore surface [17]. The hydrophobic layer might able to reduce the diameter of pores or discontinue the pores, therefore sorptivity, and flow are greatly reduced.…”

“…Surfactants keep gas bubbles stable in the system by preventing them from aggregating. Surfactants such as butyric acid, valeric acid, butyl gallate, propyl gallate, hexylamine, and calcium stearate are commonly utilized (57)(58)(59)(60)(61)(62).…”
