Silica‐Protected Micron and Sub‐Micron Capsules and Particles for Self‐Healing at the Microscale

Abstract: A generalized silica coating scheme is used to functionalize and protect sub-micron and micron size dicyclopentadiene monomer-filled capsules and polymer-protected Grubbs' catalyst particles. These capsules and particles are used for self-healing of microscale damage in an epoxy-based polymer. The silica layer both protects the capsules and particles, and limits their aggregation when added to an epoxy matrix, enabling the capsules and particles to be dispersed at high concentrations with little loss of reacti… Show more

“…[6][7][8] For polymers [9][10][11] and polymer coatings [12][13][14][15] several approaches have been reported to restore the integrity of the material, either by refilling the damaged areas, e.g., a) Electronic addresses: a.c.c.esteves@tue.nl and g.dewith@tue.nl via encapsulated reactive components (autonomous healing) or by reestablishing chemical bonds through reversible reactions triggered by external stimuli such as temperature, light or a pH switch (triggered healing). These approaches can use intrinsic healing concepts, [16][17][18][19] in which the healing agent is inherent to the material (i.e., is a part of the network or formulation) or extrinsic healing, where external components are added, such as filled capsules [20][21][22][23] or microvascular networks. 24,25 The intrinsic healing concept may allow multiple healing events but requires a certain mobility of the system (or at least part of it).…”

“…Respectively, the compliance was totally recovered at the reloading stage only at the presence of shape memory alloys (compared to unreinforced healed material that plastically deformed without building significant compliance regain). On other studies, the use of short-groove TDCB samples ensured compliance regain (Figure 11d) and considerable restoration of material original stiffness [60,36].…”

“…In this way, Jackson et al [46] built micron-size PS-protected Grubbs' catalyst particles ($1.5 mm). Mostly, the reported encapsulated healing agent ranges from 10 to 100 mm in diameter.…”
