Self‐Healing Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2016
Over the past few years, there has been a great deal of interest in the development of hydrogel materials with tunable structural, mechanical, and rheological properties, which exhibit rapid and autonomous self‐healing and self‐recovery for utilization in a broad range of applications, from soft robotics to tissue engineering.

Self-healing at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: possibleNanoscale, 2009
The design of self-healing materials is a very important but challenging topic in nanotechnology. Self-healing strategies, also inspired by natural processes, allow the fabrication of auto-repairing systems, and in recent years, materials engineering at the nanoscale has allowed further advances in this emerging field.

A Self‐Healing Elastomer

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2008
"Heal thyself!": A thermoplastic rubber material has recently been developed that can completely mend itself when the fracture interfaces are rejoined and left to heal for a moderate time. This smart rubber is easy to synthesize and displays excellent mechanical properties.

Biomimetic Self‐Healing

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2015
AbstractSelf‐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‐enhancing functionality, which was tuned by billions of years of evolution, scientists and engineers have been incorporating self‐healing capabilities into synthetic

The self-healing “cancer.”

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1965
A nodular growth appeared on the wrist of a healthy man (Fig 1) and reached a diameter of 1.5 cm within three weeks. It was hard, red, and shiny with an umbilicated central plug. A small biopsy specimen taken from the edge of this lesion was interpreted as well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma.

Self-healing superamphiphobicity

Chem. Commun., 2011
Biomimetic self-healing superamphiphobicity is reported on a rough alumina surface with a large number of nanopores that act as nanoreserviors for low surface energy materials that can consecutively release and heal the damaged surface.

Network Self-healing

2018
A major issue for growing networks is maintenance: as the amount of work increases, manual management becomes impossible. To ensure peak performance and avoid the propagation of errors that could potentially bring down the entire network, the project aims to design a centralized network monitoring tool which would detect anomalies such as increased ...

Self‐Healing Materials

Advanced Materials, 2010
AbstractSelf‐healing materials are able to partially or completely heal damage inflicted on them, e.g., crack formation; it is anticipated that the original functionality can be restored. This article covers the design and generic principles of self‐healing materials through a wide range of different material classes including metals, ceramics ...

Self-healing crystals

Nature Reviews Chemistry
Self-healing is an intrinsically exciting concept as it applies to the process of recovery, a commonplace phenomenon found in living organisms. Self-healing of artificial materials is as beneficial to living creatures as it is to materials science, wherein the effect can considerably prolong lifetimes.
