Sections discuss the principal mechanisms of self-healing and how these are applied to the development of materials that have the ability to repair themselves, either with minimal or no human intervention. In addition, the book provides a theoretical background and a review of the major research undertaken to date, providing a thorough grounding in this concept and related technology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOther sections compare the parameters of different self-healing technological processes, such as fault detection mechanisms, methods of triggering and turning off the healing processes, the activation energy of self-healing processes, the means and methods of delivery of the healing substances to the defect locations, self-healing timescale (rate of self-healing), and the extent of self-healing (healing efficiency, recovery of properties, etc.). In addition, mathematical modeling of the processes of self-healing (molecular dynamics simulation), the morphology of healed areas, and other important topics are thoroughly discussed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chemtec Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45310499520663,"sku":"9781774670026","price":18291.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781774670026.webp?v=1769288055","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/self-healing-materials-principles-and-technology-9781774670026","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
