“…Qualitative evaluation of self-repairing is usually through observation of structure recovery which is the first step in assessing self-healing performance. Multiple advanced characterization techniques employing optical microscope, laser microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and atomic force microscope (AFM) have been utilized to record the healing process of structure [14,21,37,41,[57][58][59][60]. Disappearance of the damage or coalescence of the cutting surface is frequently used as a general criterion to validate the occurrence of self-recovery.…”

With the development of smart materials, stimulus-responsive self-repairing materials attract more and more research attention. Although self-healing materials including concretes, rubbers, and hydrogels have been extensively investigated in the past decades, novel functionalities or properties such as shape memory, sol-gel transition, adhesion, anti-biofouling, and electronic/magnetic property have been introduced to self-repairing systems in recent years in order to broaden the scope of their applications in energy, drug delivery, tissue adhesion, cell culture, etc. In this paper, we first present an overview of the general strategies to prepare self-healing materials and the characterization methods to assess their healing performance. Then, we mainly focus on reviewing recent progress in novel self-healing materials possessing unique functionalities and their potential applications in biomedical engineering. Finally, the challenges and scope for future development are also discussed.

“…Moreover, graphene shows outstanding thermal and electrical conductivity with good microwave and infrared (IR) absorbing capacity. This allows to heal FG-TPUR by three different methods: via IR light, electromagnetic wave or electricity 20 . Concurrently, reversible polymers based on Diels-Alder reactions are still examined and provide new self-healing materials like polyether-maleimide-based PUR 21 .…”

“…The results suggest that the self-healing ability and shape memory effect occur due to a "zipper effect" of PAM-PAA that forms or dissociate the hydrogen-bond network, where such effects are limited without the addition of graphene. Huang et al (2013) have demonstrated the use of FLG with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as self-healing material initiated using an electric stimulus. When the FLG loading rate is 5 wt.%, the material can be healed to an efficiency higher than 98% in 3 min.…”

Innovative breakthroughs in fundamental research and industrial applications of graphene material have made its mass and low-cost production as a necessary step toward its real world applications. This one-atom thick crystal of carbon, gathers a set of unique physico-chemical properties, ranging from its extreme mechanical behavior to its exceptional electrical and thermal conductivities, which are making graphene as a serious alternative to replace many conventional materials for various applications. In this review paper, we highlight the most important experimental results on the synthesis of graphene material, its emerging properties with reference to its smart applications. We discuss the possibility to successfully integrating graphene directly into device, enabling thereby the realization of a wide range of applications, including actuation, photovoltaic, thermoelectricity, shape memory, self-healing, electrorheology, and space missions. The future outlook of graphene is also considered and discussed.
