“…As shown in Figure b, the fracture strain and stress at break of the original Pdmda 4 hydrogel were 406.54% and 1.02 MPa, while those of the damaged hydrogel after 30 min of repair were 286.41% and 0.78 MPa, with a healing efficiency of 76%. This superior self-healing property is mainly attributed to the presence of reversible multiple forces (two different electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding) between AMPS, AA, and DMAEMA units of the PDMDA polymer chain. , Specifically, once the hydrogels were disrupted, the chain segments migrated and gradually diffused to the fracture interface, , at which time the hydrogen bonds between a large number of sulfonic acid groups, protonated amines and carboxylic acid groups were rapidly reconstructed, followed by the electrostatic interactions among those three units that were also gradually reconstructed within a few minutes at room temperature, and this process allowed the hydrogels to heal autonomously and rapidly (Figures c and S5). Moreover, the remarkable self-healing ability of this hydrogel was also verified by the electrical conductivity and mechanical capacity of the hydrogels before and after healing.…”
