In recent years there has been a great deal of scientific community focus on thermoplastic polymers exhibiting intrinsic self-healing behavior, which, after suffering damage they repair themselves as a result of macromolecular rearrangements mechanisms triggered by the apportion of energy in the damage event (e.g., impact, punching, scratching), or via an external source supplying a suffi…
Chitosan membranes prepared by the dissolution of the polymer followed by freeze-drying will be cross-linked with genipine to impart to them chemical stability and adequate mechanical properties. The cross-linked membranes will be characterized in terms of chemical structure, degree of crosslinking, swelling rate, morphological features and mechanical properties. Also, the susceptibility …
In recent years there has been a strong interest in thermoplastic polymers with self-healing behavior, which after suffering mechanically-induced damage they self-repair via macromolecular rearrangements enabled by the energy generated in the damage process itself, or, alternativelly, via activation energy provided by an external source. The use of film-shaped self-regenerating polymers i…
