Self-healing materials, which can increase the lifespan of various types of products, have
been researched quite intensively in recent decades. In general, self-healing polymers and …

Self-healing polymers represent a class of materials with built-in capability of rehabilitating
damages. The topic has attracted increasingly more attention in the past few years. The on …

In this work, the fundamental design principles of intrinsic self‐healing, polymeric materials
with reversible, covalent bonds are described and summarized. The most important …

Polymeric materials are crucial to virtually all modern technologies from microelectronics to
medicine, as exempli ed by photoresists, injection-moulded engineering components …

Self-healing polymer is a kind of functional polymer material that can repair scratches,
cracks, and other mechanical damage, whose unique self-healing ability is of great …

Self-healing polymeric materials, engineered to autonomously self-restore damages from
external stimuli, are at the forefront of sustainable materials research. Their ability to …

Epoxies are the most versatile thermoset resins and are considered to be the hallmark of
thermoset industries. The demand for epoxy resins is predicted to grow at a compound …

Self‐healing of polymers and polymer composites initially represented a process capable of
autonomic restoration of mechanical strength upon cracking of the materials, but it is moving …

Intrinsic and extrinsic self-healing strategies can be employed to mitigate the effects of local
damage in order to (partially) restore a lost property or functionality and to avoid premature …

Polymers have the property to convert the physical stress to covalent bond shuffling, thereby
acting as the healing agents. Polymeric coatings, paints, electronic devices, drug delivery …
