Self-sealing Polymeric Materials: Mechanism and Applications

Nand Kumar; Dibyendu Sekhar Bag; Krishna Pratap Singh; Akansha Dixit; Shashank Mishra; Durgesh Nath Tripathi; Namburi Eswara Prasad

Volume 11, Issue 6 , June 2020, Pages 1-11

https://doi.org/10.5185/amlett.2020.061521

Abstract
  Self-sealing polymers possess the virtue to seal small punctures/cracks/damages automatically whenever occurred in the materials/components during their service. This behaviour of self-sealing in polymeric materials is inspired by the biological system in which self-sealing is a usual phenomenon. There ...  Read More
