A Highly Stretchy, Transparent Elastomer with the Capability to Automatically Self‐Heal Underwater
Open accessAbstract
Polymer materials that are able to self‐heal in humid conditions or even in water are highly desirable for their industrial applications. However, the development of underwater self‐healing polymer materials is very challenging since water molecules can readily disturb traditional noncovalent bonds, such as saturate the hydrogen bonds, coordinate with the metal cation, as well as solvate the ions. Here, a new type of dipole–dipole interactions is employed as the driving force, combining with highly polar and hydrophobic fluorinated polymers, to successfully demonstrate an underwater self‐healing elastomer. The polymer materials are transparent and stretchable. They can remain stable underwater for months without significant decay of mechanical properties. Upon mechanical damage, the material is able to self‐heal automatically in air, underwater, and under very harsh aqueous conditions (including seawater, highly acidic media, and highly basic media, etc.).

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.
