Introducing magnesium oxide into 3D printed concrete to mitigate dry-shrinkage by Abdulkerim Mohammed Aman, Zhe Yang, Yubo Xin, Xiaoman Zhang, Yangbo Li, Dahai Huang, Jing Shen

“…After 90 days, the compressive and flexural strengths decreased by 20 % and 15 % respectively, but the MgO expansion effect significantly alleviated the drying shrinkage problem, indicating that although high content improved crack resistance, it seriously damaged the mechanical and construction properties. After completing the test process, the microstructure of the sample was analyzed by SEM to assess the impact of different MgO contents. …”
