In the ever-evolving world of materials science, researchers are making significant strides in developing materials with the fascinating ability to heal themselves. This innovation, reminiscent of ...

Next-gen concrete may have skin-like qualities if Texas A&M experts successfully bring their self-repairing product to market. The researchers have developed a synthetic lichen that can fix cracks in ...

What are Self-Healing Materials? Self-healing materials are a class of advanced materials that have the ability to autonomously repair damage and restore their original properties without external ...

Researchers at Waseda University developed a more efficient method to create self-healing films using organosiloxane and polydimethylsiloxane layers. The process involves depositing a precursor ...

Engineers at North Carolina State University have developed a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used to assemble aircraft, automobiles and other products.

In hopes of producing concrete structures that can repair their cracks, researchers from Drexel University’s College of Engineering are putting a new twist on an old trick for improving the durability ...

Concrete may seem strong and permanent, but it can be surprisingly vulnerable to the elements. Now researchers at Drexel University have demonstrated a type of self-healing concrete embedded with ...

Self-healing materials are being developed by RIT researchers to further improve additive manufacturing, specifically 3D-printed products, to make them stronger and more resilient. Christopher Lewis ...

Fire ants form rafts to survive flooding, but how do those bonds work? And what can we learn from them? A professor is researching those questions to expand our knowledge of materials science. Fire ...
