Self-Healing Polymer-Based Systems presents all aspects of
self-healing polymeric materials, offering detailed information on
fundamentals, preparation methods, technology, and applications,
and drawing on the latest state-of-the-art research. The book
begins by introducing self-healing polymeric systems, with a
thorough explanation of underlying concepts, challenges,
mechanisms, kinetic and thermodynamics, and types of chemistry
involved. The second part of the book studies the main categories
of self-healing polymeric material, examining elastomer-based,
thermoplastic-based, and thermoset-based materials in turn. This is
followed by a series of chapters that examine the very latest
advances, including nanoparticles, coatings, shape memory,
self-healing biomaterials, ionomers, supramolecular polymers,
photoinduced and thermally induced self-healing, healing
efficiency, life cycle analysis, and characterization. Finally,
novel applications are presented and explained. This book serves as
an essential resource for academic researchers, scientists, and
graduate students in the areas of polymer properties, self-healing
materials, polymer science, polymer chemistry, and materials
science. In industry, this book contains highly valuable
information for R&D professionals, designers, and engineers,
who are looking to incorporate self-healing properties in their
materials, products, or components.
