The advent of self-healing metals marks a significant leap forward in the materials science arena. Exhibiting the remarkable ability to autonomously mend cracks and damage, these metals promise a ...

A new type of self-healing concrete has debuted in the U.S. market. The concrete, which is called Basilisk Self-Healing Concrete, gets its self-healing properties from bacteria that is mixed into it.

Researchers from Aalto University and the University of Bayreuth have developed self-healing gel technology similar to human skin. This is the first time that a hydrogel has been produced that ...

Self-healing coatings are advanced materials that can repair damage, such as scratches and cracks on their own. Researchers have developed an efficient method for preparing self-healing films ...
