Sommario/riassunto |
|
Self-healing is a well-known phenomenon in nature: a broken bone merges after some time and if skin is damaged, the wound will stop bleeding and heals again. |
This concept can be mimicked in order to create polymeric materials with the ability to regenerate after they have suffered degradation or wear. |
Already realized applications are used in aerospace engineering, and current research in this fascinating field shows how different self-healing mechanisms proven successful by nature can be adapted to produce even more versatile materials. |
The book combines the knowledge of an international panel of experts in the field and provides the reader with chemical and physical concepts for self-healing polymers, including aspects of biomimetic processes of healing in nature. |
It shows how to design self-healing polymers and explains the |
