Inspired by nature, self-healing materials represent the forefront of recent developments in
materials chemistry and engineering. This review outlines the recent advances in the field of …

Self-healing polymers and fiber-reinforced polymer composites possess the ability to heal in
response to damage wherever and whenever it occurs in the material. This phenomenal …

Self‐healing is a natural process common to all living organisms which provides increased
longevity and the ability to adapt to changes in the environment. Inspired by this fitness …

Self-healing materials are no more an illusion and we are not far away from the days when
manmade materials can restore their structural integrity in case of a failure. For example, the …

This review will present a comprehensive view of the field of stimuli-responsive healable
materials. It will begin with an examination of the healing of polymeric materials, briefly …

Corrosion is a natural phenomenon which significantly deteriorates metal properties. The
existing corrosion protection methods are costly and require a regular replacement of …

Microcapsules containing reactive diisocyanate for use in self-healing polymers are
successfully fabricated via interfacial polymerization of polyurethane (PU). Isocyanates are …

Self-healing polymer composites possess the inherent ability to heal the damage event
autonomically or non-autonomically with external intervention. These advanced materials …

Self-healing polymeric materials are systems that after damage can revert to their original
state with full or partial recovery of mechanical strength. Using scaling theory we study a …

Failure happens in composites after prolonged degradation process due to micro cracks.
Thereafter repairing is not possible at remote locations in the way to enhance reliability and …
