In the decade since the 1st Edition, healable polymeric materials have moved on from being a chemical curiosity to having useful applications across a broad range of fields.This 2nd Edition is fully revised with new sections on current and future applications in the following chapters: i) Reversible Covalent Bond Formation as a Strategy for Healable Polymer Networks; ii) Healable Supramolecular Polymeric Materials and iii) Encapsulation-based Self-healing Polymers and Composites.Polymers are used in many everyday technologies and their degradation due to environmental exposure has led to great interest in materials which can heal and repair themselves. In order to design new self healing polymers it's important to understand the fundamental healing mechanisms behind the material. Healable Polymer Systems outlines the key concepts and mechanisms underpinning the design and processing of healable polymers, and indicates potential directions for progress in the future development and applications of these fascinating and potentially valuable materials. Written by leading experts, the book provides polymer scientists with a compact and readily accessible source of reference for healable polymer systems.

Polymers are used in many everyday technologies and their degradation due to environmental exposure has lead to great interest in materials which can heal and repair themselves. In order to design new self healing polymers it's important to understand the fundamental healing mechanisms behind the material. Healable Polymer Systems will outline the key concepts and mechanisms underpinning the design and processing of healable polymers, and indicate potential directions for progress in the future development and applications of these fascinating and potentially valuable materials. The book covers the different techniques developed successfully to date for both autonomous healable materials (those which do not require an external stimulus to promote healing) and rehealable or remendable materials (those which only recover their original physical properties if a specific stimulus is applied). These include the encapsulated-monomer approach, reversible covalent bond formation, irreversible covalent bond formation and supramolecular self-assembly providing detailed insights into their chemistry.Written by leading experts, the book provides polymer scientists with a compact and readily accessible source of reference for healable polymer systems.
