Highly Transparent and Colorless Self‐Healing Polyacrylate Coatings Based on Diels–Alder Chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent studies about self-healing polyurethanes, which are known to exhibit remarkably high elasticity, high tensile strength, low-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a strategy for the fabrication of durable and recyclable multifunctional liquid metal elastomer composites, which consist of LM droplets as functional fillers and Diels-Alder (DA) bond crosslinked polyurethane (PU) networks as the polymer matrix.

TL;DR: In this paper , a 3D printable, thermoreversible, cross-linked network composites are presented, which are composed of Diels-Alder reversible covalent and transient cross-links, formed by thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL).

TL;DR: This review article summarizes various self- healing techniques that are currently being explored and the associated chemistries that are involved in the preparation of self-healing composite materials to provide the reader with a far deeper understanding of self -healing materials and their healing mechanisms in various electronics applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, tailor-made ABA triblock copolymers bearing a reactive pendant furfuryl group were successfully synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization, and the chemical compositions were calculated by 1H NMR, and molecular weights and molecular weight distributions were determined by gel permeation chromatography analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the use of a Diels-Alder reaction to obtain a natural rubber (NR) fully and reversibly crosslinked and with self-repair capacity.

TL;DR: In this article, the surfaces of polymers and copolymers of different methacrylates were characterized by their water contact angles and potentials using the Wilhelmy plate technique and streaming potential measurements.
