Photocurable self-healing elastomers are promising candidates for producing complex soft devices that can mend damage. However, the practicality of these materials is limited by reliance on external stimuli, custom synthesis, manual realignment, and multihour healing cycles. This paper introduces a tough 3D-printable hybrid acrylate/thiol-ene elastomer (prepared with commercially available precursors) that exhibits nearly instantaneous damage repair in the absence of external stimuli.

Elastomers are of great significance in developing smart materials for information encryption, and their unique self-healing and highly flexible properties provide innovative solutions to enhance security and anti-counterfeiting effectiveness. However, challenges remain in the multifunctional combination of mechanical properties, self-healing, degradability, and luminescence of these materials. Herein, a chemodynamic covalent adaptable network (CCAN)-induced robust, self-healing, and degradable fluorescent elastomer is proposed.

A fully bio-based polyester polyol based on isosorbide (ISB) and dimer fatty acid (DA) was synthesized through esterification. An ISB-based polyester polyol (DIS) was developed to synthesize a bio-based polyurethane elastomer (PUE) with enhanced mechanical and self-healing properties. The rigid bicyclic structure of ISB improved tensile properties, while the urethane bonds formed between the hydroxyl groups in ISB and isocyanate exhibited reversible characteristics at elevated temperatures, significantly enhancing the self-healing performance of DIS-based PUE compared to the control PUE (self-healing efficiency: 98% for DIS-based PUE vs.

Silver nanowire (Ag NW)-based elastic conductors have been considered a promising candidate for key stretchable electrodes in wearable devices. However, the weak interface interaction of Ag NWs and elastic substrates leads to poor durability of electronic devices. For everyday usage, an additional self-healing ability is required to resist scratching and damage.

Self-healing materials can recover the materials from physical damage, and extend the life of equipment. Metal coordination bonds are supramolecular interactions with tunable stability and sensitivity to external stimuli, which are crucial for developing self-healing materials. Incorporating metal coordination bonds into elastomers and coatings can enable materials to repair damage and enhance material performance.
