Abstract: To clarify the influence of different absorbent powder materials on cement-based materials,this paper studies the influence of limestone powder, tuff powder, and montmorillonite at 20% and 40% on the working performance, mechanical properties and durability of concrete. The experimental results show that compared with the benchmark group, the montmorillonite increased the amount of polycarboxylate water-reducing agent by 6-8 times, and the 28 d compressive strength decreased by 38.4% and 54.1% respectively, the drying shrinkage rate increased by 1.99 times, the carbonization resistance and the chloride ion permeability were significantly reduced. Tuff powder increased the amount of water redu-cing agent by 36.7%—64.5%, reduced 28 d compressive strength by 7.4% and 15.9%, respectively, increased drying shrinkage by 1.44 times, there is no obvious impact on resist carbonization and resist chloride ion permeability. Limestone powder changed the amount of water-reducing agent by -32.4%—30.8%, reduced the 28 d compressive strength by 18.3% and 13% respectively, the drying shrinkage rate was close to the benchmark group, and the resistance to chloride ion penetration increased by about 12.9%.
