Accelerated SelfHealing Via Ternary Interpenetrating Microvascular Networks
Self-healing materials with dual interpenetrating microvascular networks enable two-part healing chemistries and repeated healing of damage in a localized region. [ 1 ] However, due to slow healing kinetics, multiple days are required between damage events to recover mechanical performance under ambient conditions. By directly writing a third interdigitated microvascular network within these ep...
متن کاملCharacterization of Microvascular-Based Self-healing Coatings
A protocol is described to assess self-healing of crack damage in a polymer coating deposited on a substrate containing a microvascular network. The bio-inspired coating/substrate design delivers healing agent to cracks in the coating via a three-dimensional microvascular network embedded in the substrate. Through capillary action, monomer flows from the network channels into the crack plane wh...
متن کاملSelf-healing materials with microvascular networks.
Self-healing polymers composed of microencapsulated healing agents exhibit remarkable mechanical performance and regenerative ability, but are limited to autonomic repair of a single damage event in a given location. Self-healing is triggered by crack-induced rupture of the embedded capsules; thus, once a localized region is depleted of healing agent, further repair is precluded. Re-mendable po...
متن کاملRobust Self-Healing Hydrogels Assisted by Cross-Linked Nanofiber Networks
Given increasing environmental and energy issues, mimicking nature to confer synthetic materials with self-healing property to expand their lifespan is highly desirable. Just like human skin recovers itself upon damage with the aid of nutrient-laden blood vascularization, designing smart materials with microvascular network to accelerate self-healing is workable but continues to be a challenge....
متن کاملDesigned hydrocolloid interpenetrating polymeric networks for clinical applications of novel drug-carrying matrix systems using Tris (6-isocyanatohexyl) isocyanurate and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose.
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was employed in this study to design controllable drug release systems because of its non-toxic nature, swelling properties. New interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) of HPMC / tri-isocyanate crosslinked polyurethane (TCPU) could be prepared on the surfaces of IPN materials. To design "Novel Drug-carrying Matrix Systems", incorporation of novel structure i...
