Materials that can recover the function of lost or damaged parts, called self‐healing
materials, have attracted attention due to their wide usage in different fields such as water …

The conventional coatings are generally unsustainable in harsh environments and offer
limited protection to the intended infrastructures. Recently, the emergence of plant-based …

In this work, the corrosion inhibitor sodium D-gluconate (SD) was successfully loaded into
halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). After that, SD-HNTs-A3@ CS/SA smart nanocontainers …

In this study, firstly the fiber metal laminates (FMLs) were fabricated by using aluminum
sheets as skin layers and jute/basalt fibers with the different stacking sequences …

Polymer composites have been extensively used as marine engineering structures under
extreme environmental conditions for their mechanical/thermal stability and special self …

The tribological properties of epoxy composites containing metal microcapsules and
polymer microcapsules were investigated systematically. Both metal microcapsules and …

This study investigated the effect of three species of bacteria namely Sporosarcina pasteurii,
Bacillus megaterium, and Bacillus subtilis in four different concentrations on the self-healing …

The design and development of self-lubricating materials aid in enhancing the tribological
performance and prolonging the service life of aero self-lubricating spherical plain bearings …

In the following paper first, novel pH-sensitive melamine-formaldehyde microcapsules
containing ethylene glycol with three concentrations of cerium nitrate were synthesized …

Although microcapsules can remarkably diminish the friction coefficient and wear rate of the
composites, most of the superior tribological properties are achieved under small contact …
