Development of a Self-Healing Gel with Self-Healing Kinetics That Can Be Controlled by Heat

open access: yesGels
A self-healing gel with self-healing kinetics that can be regulated by heat is developed. The gel is composed of a polymer having benzophenone (BP) substituents, which are cross-linked with a main alkyl chain via ester bonds, titanium chloride, and zinc.

Self-healing systems and virtual structures

open access: yes, 2012
Modern networks are large, highly complex and dynamic. Add to that the mobility of the agents comprising many of these networks. It is difficult or even impossible for such systems to be managed centrally in an efficient manner. It is imperative for such

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Preparation and Characterization of Thermally Reversible Self-healing Polyurethane Elastomer

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2017
In order to investigate the structure and property relationships of intrinsic self-healing polyurethane and balance the seemly contradictory forces between its self-healing efficiency and mechanical strength, the reversible disulfide bonds were ...

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Investigation on Regularities of Self‐Healing Breakdown in Metallized Film Capacitors for AC Application

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces
Metallized film capacitors (MFCs) exhibit a distinctive self‐healing capability, making them particularly suitable for reactive compensation in high‐voltage power systems. However, frequent self‐healing breakdowns or failures can significantly compromise

Evaluation of the performance of self-healing concrete at small and large scale under laboratory conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
HEALCON is an EU-FP7 project which aims to develop self-healing concrete to create durable and sustainable concrete structures. While during the first years of the project the self-healing materials (including the healing agents and suitable ...

Thermal Breakage and Self-Healing of a Polymer Chain under Tensile Stress

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the thermal breakage of a tethered polymer chain of discrete segments coupled by Morse potentials under constant tensile stress. The chain dynamics at the onset of fracture is studied analytically by Kramers-Langer multidimensional theory and

Self‐Healing Functional Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, 2018
AbstractDuring the last decade extensive research has focused on designing functional surfaces, e.g., with self‐cleaning, antibacterial, or antifouling properties, driven by the industrial demand on innovation and sustainability, and the academic interest in new functional materials.
