Abstract In this study, the influence of direct electric current on a microcapsule was investigated. The consisted core from calcium ion and sodium alginate (SA) complex membrane formed by polyionic complexation poly(methylene-co-guanidine) (PMCG) cellulose sulfate (CS). Microcapsules showed swelling decreasing mechanical properties under applied current, anisotropic electrode side. effect is a...

Self-healing materials as a type of promising smart are gradually applied to electronics, biology, and engineering. In this study, we used in situ polymerization make melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resin microcapsules wrap the epoxy oxide repairing agent Cu(MI) 4 Br 2 latent-curing protect E-51 from broken microcapsules. addition, graphene was reinforcing phase through its two-dimensional-layered s...

Microencapsulated dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) healing agent and Grubbs’ Ru catalyst are incorporated into an epoxy matrix to produce a polymer composite capable of self-healing. The fracture toughness and healing efficiency of this composite are measured using a tapered double-cantilever beam (TDCB) specimen. Both the virgin and healed fracture toughness depend strongly on the size and concentrati...

The jamming of nanoparticle surfactants (NPSs) at liquid–liquid interface imparts attractive properties to the interfacial assemblies and enables structuring liquids. Herein, we report photoresponsive supramolecular microcapsules with jammed NPS oil-water interface, taking advantage host–guest molecular recognition. permeability colloidal membrane can be effectively manipulated by switching NPS...
