Abstract：Surface protection is an important supplementary strategy to improve the durability of concrete,but there are issues to be addressed for traditional way of surface protection,such as poor interface compatibility and environmentally unfriendly.In recent years,the schemes of using microbial induced carbonate precipitation(MCIP)for surface coating protection of concrete can be break through in the limitations of traditional surface protection methods and has attracted wide attentions.The mineralization mechanisms of MICP for surface coating were first introduced.Then several common surface coating methods and their effects on the durability and mechanical properties of concrete were discussed.Moreover,the microscopic characteristics of the surface coating layer were analyzed.Finally,the future perspectives of microbial surface coating for surface protection of concrete were discussed based on a summary of the research outcomes to date.
