An introduction to self-healing of polymer composite materials and conventional repairing process

The effect of microparticles/nanoparticles surface modification on the magnetorheological fluid properties: A review

“…Many researchers have shown a strong interest in smart materials over the past years (Rabbani et al, 2015). Intelligence is a quality that is found in all types of materials such as composites (Lucarini et al, 2022), polymers (Kenari and Verma, 2022), metals, and advanced ceramics (Ayode Otitoju et al, 2020), all of which are related to smart materials when a set of processes are applied. Smart materials such as rheological materials change their physical behavior considerably in the presence of external stimuli (Mazlan et al, 2008).…”

Self-Healing of Polymers and Polymer Composites

“…In order not to multiply the pollution of the planet, polymers should be repaired or degraded. The first path leads to the development of self-healing methods [1][2][3][4][5][6], and at the same time, the problem of saving non-renewable resources is solved; the second path leads to the creation of materials that are biodegradable or destroyed by light, moisture, and similar climatic factors. According to S. van der Zwaag [7], for twenty centuries, the development of materials has been reduced to the prevention of damage, that is, materials must be designed and manufactured in such a way as to delay the formation and propagation of damage that occurs during the operation of products as much as possible.…”
