Self-Healing Nanocomposites—Advancements and Aerospace Applications

Self-healing polymers and nanocomposites form an important class of responsive materials. These materials have the capability to reversibly heal their damage. For aerospace applications, thermosets thermoplastic been reinforced with nanocarbon nanoparticles for self-healing structural This review comprehends use in sector. The behavior depends on factors such as microphase separation, matrix–nanofiller interactions inter-diffusion polymer–nanofiller. Moreover, can be achieved through healing agents nanocapsules nanoparticles. mechanism has found operate via physical or chemical interactions. used design components, panels, laminates, membranes, coatings, etc., recover damage space Future research must emphasize new high-performance polymeric structures.
