Self-healing: A new paradigm in materials design
Abstract
Self-healing materials, when damaged, are designed to sense the failure and respond in an autonomous fashion to restore structural function. Inspired by biological systems, synthetic self-healing materials represent a new paradigm in the design of polymer based composites. This overview article summarizes the different strategies and approaches to achieving self-healing functionality and discusses future directions in the nascent field. The strategies are broadly classified into the following three categories: healing with an embedded liquid phase repair agent, thermally activated solid phase healing, and healing of projectile puncture.

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.
