Self-Healing Systems for Industrial and Marine Protective Coatings

 Truly self-healing materials have the capability to repair themselves when they are damaged without the need for any external intervention. Self-healing systems based on microencapsulated healing agents developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign were initially developed with polymerized resins and reinforced polymer composites as the intended applications. In this paper, we discuss the principles that emerged in the design of these self-healing systems and how they are presently used in design and optimization of self-healing systems for industrial and marine protective coatings.
