Full Recovery of Fracture Toughness Using a Nontoxic Solvent‐Based Self‐Healing System
Abstract
Two significant advances are reported for solvent‐based self‐healing of epoxy materials. First, an autonomic system yielding complete recovery of fracture toughness after crack propagation was achieved by embedding microcapsules containing a mixture of epoxy monomer and solvent into an epoxy matrix. Healing with epoxy‐solvent microcapsules is superior to capsules that contain solvent alone, and multiple healing events are reported for this system. Second, efficient healing is reported for new solvents, including aromatic esters, which are significantly less toxic than the previously employed solvent, chlorobenzene. Preliminary aging studies using either chlorobenzene or ethyl phenylacetate as the solvent demonstrate the stability of the epoxy‐solvent system under ambient conditions for at least one month.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
