    Kinetics of SAPs During Hardening, Drying and Healing in Cementitious Materials Studied by NMR

    At early ages, plastic shrinkage can arise when a cement paste is subjected to harsh drying conditions during hardening. Furthermore, when using a low water-to-binder ratio, the cementitious material may show ...
