Water-Enabled Self-Healing of Polyelectrolyte Multilayer Coatings

摘要

Self-healing materials have the ability to repair damage caused by mechanical usage over time. The demand for self-healing materials is rapidly growing because they may have longer lifetimes and lower production costs. Among various self-healing materials, self-healing coatings capable of endowing the underlying substrates with desired properties and protecting the substrates against damage or corrosion are indispensable in daily life.
