Solvent-based self-healing polymeric materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mechanical damage to bulk polymers typically begins as a microcrack, which can lead to eventual failure of the material if there is no method to inhibit crack growth. In living systems, this damage automatically initiates a healing response.
