From: Nature-inspired hierarchical building materials with low CO2 emission and superior performance
a The hydrogel ingredients (NIPAm, SA, Bis, and APS) were dissolved in DI water. b Cement particles were then added to the solution. c After the gelation of hydrogel, cement particles were deposited on its surface. d Following cement hydration, LLST exhibited a sponge-like porous structure.
