Cement-based materials often display an extraordinarily pronounced hysteresis of water sorption isotherms, even at low vapor pressures. This hysteresis is reflected in the volume change of the solid skeleton. To explain these observations, we propose a simple mechanism based on strong capillary forces in slit pores. Condensed water can exert capillary forces that change the volume of pores which are...
