Abstract
Poly(urethane-urea) elastomers (PUUEs) have gained significant attention recently due to their growing demand in electronic skin, wearable electronic devices, and aerospace applications. The practical implementation of these elastomers necessitates many exceptional properties to ensure robust and safe utilization. However, achieving an optimal balance between high mechanical strength, good self-healing at moderate temperatures, and efficient flame retardancy for poly(urethane-urea) elastomers remains a formidable challenge. In this study, we incorporated metal coordination bonds and flame-retarding phosphinate groups into the design of poly(urethane-urea) simultaneously, resulting in a high-strength, self-healing, and flame-retardant elastomer, termed PNPU-2%Zn. Additional supramolecular cross-links and plasticizing effects of phosphinate-endowed PUUEs with relatively remarkable tensile strength (20.9 MPa), high elastic modulus (10.8 MPa), and exceptional self-healing efficiency (above 97%). Besides, PNPU-2%Zn possessed self-extinguishing characteristics with a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 26.5%. Such an elastomer with superior properties can resist both mechanical fracture and fire hazards, providing insights into the development of robust and high-performance components for applications in wearable electronic devices.

Abstract
Resin-based dental composites, commonly used in dentistry, offer several advantages including minimally invasive application, esthetically pleasing appearance, and good physical and mechanical properties. However, these dental composites can be susceptible to microcracks due to various factors in the complex oral environment. These microcracks can potentially lead to clinical restoration failure. Conventional materials and methods are inadequate for detecting and repairing these microcracks in situ. Consequently, incorporating self-healing properties into dental composites has become a necessity. Recent years have witnessed rapid advancements in self-healing polymer materials, drawing inspiration from biological bionics. Microcapsule-based self-healing dental composites (SHDCs) represent some of the most prevalent types of self-healing materials utilized in this domain. In this article, we undertake a comprehensive review of the most recent literature, highlighting key insights and findings related to microcapsule-based SHDCs. Our discussion centers particularly on the preparation techniques, application methods, and the promising future of self-healing microcapsules in the field of dentistry.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs), crosslinked by noncovalent bonds, have emerged as reorganizable and recyclable polymeric materials with unique functionality. However, poor stability is an imperative challenge faced by SPNs, because SPNs are susceptible to heat, water, and/or solvents due to the dynamic and reversible nature of noncovalent bonds. Herein, the design of a noncovalent cooperative network (NCoN) to simultaneously stabilize and reinforce SPNs is reported, resulting in an ultrastable, superrobust, and recyclable SPN. The NCoN is constructed by multiplying the H-bonding sites and tuning the conformation/geometry of the H-bonding segment to optimize the multivalence cooperativity of H-bonds. The rationally designed H-bonding segment with high conformational compliance favors the formation of tightly packed H-bond arrays comprising higher-density and stronger H-bonds. Consequently, the H-bonded crosslinks in the NCoN display a covalent crosslinking effect but retain on-demand dynamics and reversibility. The resultant ultrastable SPN not only displays remarkable resistance to heat up to 120 °C, water soaking, and a broad spectrum of solvents, but also possesses a superhigh true stress at break (1.1 GPa) and an ultrahigh toughness (406 MJ m-3 ). Despite the covalent-network-like stability, the SPN is recyclable through activating its reversibility in a high-polarity solvent heated to a threshold temperature.

Abstract
Elastomers are widely used in traditional industries and new intelligent fields. However, they are inevitably damaged by electricity, heat, force, etc. during the working process. With the continuous improvement of reliability and environmental protection requirements in human production and living, it is vital to develop elastomer materials with good mechanical properties that are not easily damaged and can self-heal after being damaged. Nevertheless, there are often contradictions between mechanical properties and self-healing as well as toughness, strength, and ductility. Herein, a strong and dynamic decuple hydrogen bonding based on carbon hydrazide (CHZ) is reported, accompanied with soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chains to prepare self-healing (efficiency 98.7%), recyclable, and robust elastomers (CHZ-PDMS). The strategy of decuple hydrogen bonding will significantly impact the study of the mechanical properties of elastomers. High stretchability (1731%) and a high toughness of 23.31 MJ m-3 are achieved due to the phase-separated structure and energy dissipation. The recyclability of CHZ-PDMS further supports the concept of environmental protection. The application of CHZ-PDMS as a flexible strain sensor exhibited high sensitivity.

Abstract
In the biomedical field, degradable chemically crosslinked elastomers are interesting materials for tissue engineering applications, since they present rubber-like mechanical properties matching those of soft tissues and are able to preserve their three-dimensional (3D) structure over degradation. Their use in biomedical applications requires surgical handling and implantation that can be a source of accidental damages responsible for the loss of properties. Therefore, their inability to be healed after damage or breaking can be a major drawback. In this work, biodegradable dual-crosslinked networks that exhibit fast and efficient self-healing properties at 37 °C are designed. Self-healable dual-crosslinked (chemically and physically) elastomeric networks are prepared by two methods. The first approach is based on the mix of hydrophobic poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic acid) (PEG-PLA) star-shaped copolymers functionalized with either catechol or methacrylate moieties. In the second approach, hydrophobic bifunctional PEG-PLA star-shaped copolymers with both catechol and methacrylate on their structure are used. In the two systems, the supramolecular network is responsible for the self-healing properties, thanks to the dynamic dissociation/reassociation of the numerous hydrogen bonds between the catechol groups, whereas the covalent network ensures mechanical properties similar to pure methacrylate networks. The self-healable materials display mechanical properties that are compatible with soft tissues and exhibit linear degradation because of the chemical cross-links. The performances of networks from mixed copolymers versus bifunctional copolymers are compared and demonstrate the superiority of the latter. The biocompatibility of the materials is also demonstrated, confirming the potential of these degradable and self-healable elastomeric networks to be used for the design of temporary medical devices.

Abstract
Energetic composite materials (ECMs) are the basic materials of polymer binder explosives and composite solid propellants, which are mainly composed of explosive crystals and binders. During the manufacturing, storage and use of ECMs, the bonding surface is prone to micro/fine cracks or defects caused by external stimuli such as temperature, humidity and impact, affecting the safety and service of ECMs. Therefore, substantial efforts have been devoted to designing suitable self-healing binders aimed at repairing cracks/defects. This review describes the research progress on self-healing binders for ECMs. The structural designs of these strategies to manipulate macro-molecular and/or supramolecular polymers are discussed in detail, and then the implementation of these strategies on ECMs is discussed. However, the reasonable configuration of robust microstructures and effective dynamic exchange are still challenges. Therefore, the prospects for the development of self-healing binders for ECMs are proposed. These critical insights are emphasized to guide the research on developing novel self-healing binders for ECMs in the future.

Abstract
Polymeric hydrogels have drawn considerable attention as a biomedical material for their unique mechanical and chemical properties, which are very similar to natural tissues. Among the conventional hydrogel materials, self-healing hydrogels (SHH) are showing their promise in biomedical applications in tissue engineering, wound healing, and drug delivery. Additionally, their responses can be controlled via external stimuli (e.g., pH, temperature, pressure, or radiation). Identifying a suitable combination of viscous and elastic materials, lipophilicity and biocompatibility are crucial challenges in the development of SHH. Furthermore, the trade-off relation between the healing performance and the mechanical toughness also limits their real-time applications. Additionally, short-term and long-term effects of many SHH in the in vivo model are yet to be reported. This review will discuss the mechanism of various SHH, their recent advancements, and their challenges in tissue engineering, wound healing, and drug delivery.

Abstract
Self-healing materials and self-healing mechanisms are two topics that have attracted huge scientific interest in recent decades. Macromolecular chemistry can provide appropriately tailored functional polymers with desired healing properties. Herein, we report the incorporation of glycidyl methacrylate-based (GMA) copolymers in waterborne polyurethanes (WPUs) and the study of their potential healing ability. Two types of copolymers were synthesized, namely the hydrophobic P(BA-co-GMAy) copolymers of GMA with n-butyl acrylate (BA) and the amphiphilic copolymers P(PEGMA-co-GMAy) of GMA with a poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) macromonomer. We demonstrate that the blending of these types of copolymers with two WPUs leads to homogenous composites. While the addition of P(BA-co-GMAy) in the WPUs leads to amorphous materials, the addition of P(PEGMA-co-GMAy) copolymers leads to hybrid composite systems varying from amorphous to semi-crystalline, depending on copolymer or blend composition. The healing efficiency of these copolymers was explored upon application of two external triggers (addition of water or heating). Promising healing results were exhibited by the final composites when water was used as a healing trigger.

Abstract
Soft robots are, due to their softness, inherently safe and adapt well to unstructured environments. However, they are prone to various damage types. Self-healing polymers address this vulnerability. Self-healing soft robots can recover completely from macroscopic damage, extending their lifetime. For developing healable soft robots, various formative and additive manufacturing methods have been exploited to shape self-healing polymers into complex structures. Additionally, several novel manufacturing techniques, noted as (re)assembly binding techniques that are specific to self-healing polymers, have been created. Herein, the wide variety of processing techniques of self-healing polymers for robotics available in the literature is reviewed, and limitations and opportunities discussed thoroughly. Based on defined requirements for soft robots, these techniques are critically compared and validated. A strong focus is drawn to the reversible covalent and (physico)chemical cross-links present in the self-healing polymers that do not only endow healability to the resulting soft robotic components, but are also beneficial in many manufacturing techniques. They solve current obstacles in soft robots, including the formation of robust multi-material parts, recyclability, and stress relaxation. This review bridges two promising research fields, and guides the reader toward selecting a suitable processing method based on a self-healing polymer and the intended soft robotics application.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive structurally dynamic polymers are capable of mimicking the biological systems to adapt themselves to the surrounding environmental changes and subsequently exhibiting a wide range of responses ranging from self-healing to complex shape-morphing. Dynamic self-healing polymers (SHPs), shape-memory polymers (SMPs) and liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), which are three representative examples of stimuli-responsive structurally dynamic polymers, have been attracting broad and growing interest in recent years because of their potential applications in the fields of electronic skin, sensors, soft robots, artificial muscles, and so on. We review recent advances and challenges in the developments towards dynamic SHPs, SMPs and LCEs, focusing on the chemistry strategies and the dynamic reaction mechanisms that enhance the performances of the materials including self-healing, reprocessing and reprogramming. We compare and discuss the different dynamic chemistries and their mechanisms on the enhanced functions of the materials, where three summary tables are presented: a library of dynamic bonds and the resulting characteristics of the materials. Finally, we provide a critical outline of the unresolved issues and future perspectives on the emerging developments. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Recently, soft electronics have attracted significant attention for various applications such as flexible devices, artificial electronic skins, and wearable devices. For practical applications, the key requirements are an appropriate electrical conductivity and excellent elastic properties. Herein, using the cyano-silver complexes resulting from coordination bonds between the nitrile group of poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (SAN) and Ag ions, a self-healing elastomer demonstrating electrical conductivity is obtained. Because of these coordination complexes, the Ag-SAN elastomer possesses elasticity, compared with pristine SAN. The fracture strain of the Ag-SAN elastomers increased with the amount of added Ag ions, reaching up to 1000%. Additionally, owing to the presence of reversible coordination bonds, the elastomer exhibits self-healing properties at room temperature and electrical conductivity, thereby improving the possibility of its utilization in novel applications wherein elastic materials are generally exposed to external stimuli.

Abstract
Self-healing polymers are a new class of material that has recently received a lot of attention because of the lifespan improvement it could bring to multiple applications. One of the major challenges is to obtain multifunctional materials which can self-heal and exhibit other interesting properties such as protection against corrosion. In this paper, the effect of the incorporation of an aminosilane on the properties of a self-healing organic polymer containing disulfide bond is studied on films and coatings for aluminium AA2024-T3 using simple one step in situ synthesis. Hybrid coatings with enhanced anticorrosion properties measured by EIS were obtained thanks to the formation of a protective oxide interface layer, while exhibiting wound closure after exposition at 75 °C. The thermal, mechanical and rheological properties of the films with different aminosilane amounts were characterized in order to understand the influence of the slight presence of the inorganic network. Stiffer and reprocessable hybrid films were obtained, capable to recover their mechanical properties after healing. The nanocomposite structure, confirmed by TEM, had a positive effect on the self-healing and stress relaxation properties. These results highlight the potential of sol-gel chemistry to obtain efficient anticorrosion and self-healing coatings.

Abstract
Developing an autonomous self-healing polyurethane (PU) elastomer with excellent mechanical properties and high ductility has attracted increasing attention. Nowadays, the synthesis of elastomers with excellent mechanical properties and rapid self-healing at room temperature faces a huge challenge. Herein, This work reports a new supramolecular PU with excellent mechanical properties and rapid self-healing at room temperature through the introduction of T-type chain extender into the supramolecular polymer chain. The introduction of T-chain extender can be used to enhance the mechanical strength of PU, and the multiple hydrogen bonds on the side-chain provide theoretical support for the rapid self-healing ability of PU. Maximum stress of the synthesized PU can reach 3.4 ± 0.15 Mpa, and maximum elongation at break can reach 3200% ± 160%. Due to flexibility and re-constructability of side-chain hydrogen bonds, PU stress repair efficiency can reach 96.7%, and can be self-healing scratches rapidly and effectively at room temperature. The mechanical properties and self-healing properties of PU can be adjusted by the content of T-type chain extender. The PU is applied to the metal surface coating, which has excellent acid-base resistance, bond strength up to 2.9 ± 0.1 Mpa, and the ability to eliminate local damage on the coating surface quickly at room temperature.

Abstract
Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) have recently received extensive interests due to their reprocessability and repairability. Rethinking the libraries of the published CANs, most of them are fabricated by one/two-component reactions and few cases utilize multi-component reactions to construct CANs while multi-component reactions are conductive to tailoring the properties of polymers due to their structural designability and flexible choice of raw materials. A novel kind of dynamic covalent bond named aminoesterenamide is presented through three-component reaction between acetoacetyl, amine and isocyanate. Aminoesterenamide exhibits thermal reversibility through dissociating into vinylogous urethane and isocyanate. When it is used to prepare CANs, the synthesized polymer networks can be reprocessed many times via the exchange reaction between aminoesterenamides. Moreover, the forming of aminoesterenamide involving three starting components imparts CANs with great freedom to tailor their properties. Therefore, the authors believe this method that utilizes three-component reaction to fabricate CANs would bring new stories and perspectives to the exploration of new types of CANs.

Abstract
The advent of 3D printing has led to a new era of highly customized products. Printing reprocessable thermoplastic polymers is limited to slow printing techniques such as fused deposition modeling. Photocuring 3D printing is a high-speed 3D printing technique suitable for photocurable thermosetting resins because the cross-linked 3D network could achieve rapid solid-liquid separation during printing. However, thermoplastics usually cannot be printed via photocuring 3D printers because rapid solid-liquid separation is hard to be achieved due to the diffusion/dissolution of linear molecular chains in their liquid precursor. Herein, we hypothesize that hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) between monomers may accelerate polymerization and reduce solubility of the polymer in liquid precursors to achieve rapid solid-liquid separation. Using this strategy, a series of UV-curable methacrylic and acrylic monomers was selected as inks to demonstrate the role of H-bonds in photocuring 3D printing. The hypothesis was further verified by using blended inks of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NVP) and acrylic acid (AA) via experimental and molecular dynamic simulation. Oil palm occupies the top position of plantation species in southeastern Asian forests. Palm oil (PO) has the lowest price compared with other plant oils. Thus, a PO-based vinyl monomer was selected as the raw material for 3D printing thermoplastic polymers. Various biobased thermoplastics were successfully printed from the PO-based monomer and commercial monomers. The amide structure in the PO monomer formed H-bonds with polar monomers, including NVP and AA, resulting in printed 3D objects with surprising functionalities such as high stretchability and self-healing ability.

Abstract
Self-healing conductive elastomers have been widely used in smart electronic devices, such as wearable sensors. However, nano fillers hinder the flow of polymer segments, which make the development of conductive elastomer with rapid repair and high ductility a challenge. In this work, thioctic acid (TA) was grafted onto amino-modified polysiloxane (PDMS-NH2) by dehydration condensation of amino group and carboxyl group. By introducing gold nanoparticles, a dynamic network based on S-Au interaction was constructed. The dynamic gold cross-linking could effectively dissipate the energy exerted by external force and improve the extensibility of conductive elastomer. In addition, S-Au interaction had a good optothermal effect, so that the elastomer rapidly healed under NIR irradiation, and the repair efficiency reached 92%. We further evaluated the performance of the conductive elastomer as a strain sensor. The sample could accurately monitor the bending of human joints and small muscle state changes. This kind of self-healable conductive elastomer based on dynamic S-Au interaction has great potential in the fields of interpersonal interaction and health monitoring.

Abstract
In the past decade, the self-healing elastomers based on multiple hydrogen bonding have attracted ample attention due to their rich chemical structures, adjustable mechanical properties, fast healing speed, and high healing efficiency. Through prolonging the service life and fast recovery of the mechanical properties, self-healing elastomers can be potentially applied in the field of wearable electronics, electronic skins, motion tracking, and health monitoring. In this perspective, we will introduce the concept and classification of self-healing materials first, then the hydrogen bonds, and the corresponding position of hydrogen-bonding units in the polymer structures. We will also conclude the potential application of hydrogen bonding-based elastomers. Finally, a summary and outlook will be provided.

Abstract
We designed and synthesized a colorless transparent glassy polyurethane assembled using low-molecular-weight oligomers carrying a large number of loosely packed weak hydrogen bonds (H-bonds), which has a glass transition temperature (Tg ) up to 36.8 °C and behaves unprecedentedly robust stiffness with a tensile Young's modulus of 1.56±0.03 GPa. Fast room-temperature self-healing was observed in this polymer network: the broken glassy polyurethane (GPU) specimen can recover to a tensile strength up 7.74±0.76 MPa after healing for as little as 10 min, which is prominent compared to reported room-temperature self-healing polymers. The high density of loose-packed hydrogen bonds can reversibly dissociate/associate below Tg of GPU (that is secondary relaxation), which enables the reconfiguration of the damaged network in the fractured interfaces, despite the extremely slow diffusion dynamics of molecular chains under room temperature. This GPU shows potential application as an optical lens.

Abstract
In this study, a self-healing epoxy coating was prepared by incorporating a dual capsule healing system including epoxy resin and its amine-based curing agent. The emulsion electrospray technique was used for encapsulating the healing agents in poly(styrene co-acrylonitrile) (SAN) as shell material. Characterizing the prepared microcapsules (MCs) by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed their spherical morphology with the particle size of 827 nm and 749 nm for epoxy and amine cores, respectively. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results confirmed successful encapsulation with no side chemical reaction between the encapsulated core and shell materials. The effects of embedding MCs on the physical and mechanical properties of the epoxy coating matrix were studied by pull-off adhesion, conical mandrel bending, and gloss tests. In addition, the prepared coatings’ self-healing performance was evaluated by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (Tafel) experiments. The results revealed that the coating sample containing 1 wt% of core-shell MCs (a mixture of epoxy and amine-containing MCs with a 50 : 50 weight ratio) showed the best corrosion performance with 99% self-healing efficiency.

Abstract
Stretchable electronics, which can retain their functions under stretching, have attracted great interest in recent decades. Elastic substrates, which bear the applied strain and regulate the strain distribution in circuits, are indispensable components in stretchable electronics. Moreover, the self-healing property of the substrate is a premise to endow stretchable electronics with the same characteristics, so the device may recover from failure resulting from large and frequent deformations. Therefore, the properties of the elastic substrate are crucial to the overall performance of stretchable devices. Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) is widely used as the substrate material for stretchable electronics, not only because of its advantages, which include stable chemical properties, good thermal stability, transparency, and biological compatibility, but also because of its capability of attaining designer functionalities via surface modification and bulk property tailoring. Herein, the strategies for fabricating stretchable electronics on PDMS substrates are summarized, and the influence of the physical and chemical properties of PDMS, including surface chemical status, physical modulus, geometric structures, and self-healing properties, on the performance of stretchable electronics is discussed. Finally, the challenges and future opportunities of stretchable electronics based on PDMS substrates are considered.

Abstract
Due to their low flammability, good dimensional stability and chemical stability, solid polymer electrolytes are currently attracting extensive interest for building lithium metal batteries. But severe safety issues such as cracks or breakage, resulting in short circuits will prevent their widespread application. Here, we report a new design of self-healing solid polymer electrolyte (ShSPE) based on imine bonds, fabricated from varying amounts of polyoxyethylenebis(amine) and terephthalaldehyde through a simple Schiff base reaction. Moreover, adding diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A improves the flexibility and high stretchability of the polymer electrolyte. The polymer networks exhibit good thermal stability and excellent self-healing characteristics. The ShSPE with the highest NH2-PEG-NH2 content (ShSPE-3) has an improved lithium ion transference number of 0.39, and exhibits an electrochemical stability up to 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+. ShSPE-3 shows the highest ionic conductivity of 1.67 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 60 °C. Besides, the interfacial stability of ShSPE-3 is promoted and the electrolyte membrane exhibits good cycling performance with LiFePO4, and the LiFePO4/Li cell exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 141.3 mA h g -1. These results suggest that self-healing solid polymer electrolytes are promising candidates for high safety and stable lithium metal batteries.

Abstract
Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) as a revolutionary system for harvesting mechanical energy have demonstrated high vitality and great advantage, which open up great prospects for their application in various areas of the society of the future. The past few years have seen exponential growth in many new classes of self-healing polymers (SHPs) for TENGs. This review presents and evaluates the SHP range for TENGs, and also attempts to assess the impact of modern polymer chemistry on the development of advanced materials for TENGs. Among the most widely used SHPs for TENGs, the analysis of non-covalent (hydrogen bond, metal-ligand bond), covalent (imine bond, disulfide bond, borate bond) and multiple bond-based SHPs in TENGs has been performed. Particular attention is paid to the use of SHPs with shape memory as components of TENGs. Finally, the problems and prospects for the development of SHPs for TENGs are outlined.

Polymers are widely used as dielectric components and electrical insulations in modern electronic devices and power systems in the industrial sector, transportation, and large appliances, among others, where electrical damage of the materials is one of the major factors threatening the reliability and service lifetime. Self-healing dielectric polymers, an emerging category of materials capable of recovering dielectric and insulating properties after electrical damage, are of promise to address this issue. This paper aims at summarizing the recent progress in the design and synthesis of self-healing dielectric polymers. The current understanding to the process of electrical degradation and damage in dielectric polymers is first introduced and the critical requirements in the self-healing of electrical damage are proposed. Then the feasibility of using self-healing strategies designed for repairing mechanical damage in the healing of electrical damage is evaluated, based on which the challenges and bottleneck issues are pointed out. The emerging self-healing methods specifically designed for healing electrical damage are highlighted and some useful mechanisms for developing novel self-healing dielectric polymers are proposed. It is concluded by providing a brief outlook and some potential directions in the future development toward practical applications in electronics and the electric power industry.

Abstract
Flexible pressure and strain sensors have great potential for applications in wearable and implantable devices, soft robots, and artificial skin. The introduction of self-healing performance has made a positive contribution to the lifetime and stability of flexible sensors. At present, many self-healing flexible sensors with high sensitivity have been developed to detect the signal of organism activity. The sensitivity, reliability, and stability of self-healing flexible sensors depend on the conductive network and mechanical properties of flexible materials. This review focuses on the latest research progress of self-healing flexible sensors. First, various repair mechanisms of self-healing flexible materials are reviewed because these mechanisms contribute to the development of self-healing flexible materials. Then, self-healing elastomer flexible sensor and self-healing hydrogel flexible sensor are introduced and discussed respectively. The research status and problems to be solved of these two types of flexible sensors are discussed in detail. Finally, this rapidly developing and promising field of self-healing flexible sensors and devices is prospected.

Abstract
Self-healable polyurethanes can be used in various fields for extended service life and reduced maintenance costs. It is generally believed that the shape memory effect is helpful for achieving a high healing efficiency. The morphological features were focused on in this study as microphase separation is one of the main factors affecting various performances of polyurethanes, including their shape memory behavior and mechanical properties. Microphase separation can be regulated by changing the content and types of the hard segments. With this in mind, polyurethanes from polycaprolactone diol, hexamethylene diisocyanate, and different chain extenders were synthesized, characterized, and designed as promising self-healing polymers. All the polyurethane specimens were equipped with a similar content of hard segments but diverse types, such as aliphatic, aromatic, and disulfide-bonded. Differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffractometry, infrared spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy were used to describe the microstructures of the polyurethanes, including the crystalline regions. The relationship between the microphase separation structures and material properties was focused on in this examination. Various properties, including the thermal stability, mechanical behavior, hydrophobicity, and self-healing efficiency showed significant differences due to the change in the hard segments' structure and multiphase distribution. The aliphatic disulfide stimulated the conformation of a proper microphase separation structure (the large heterogeneous structure at physical length scales as well as a more sufficient combination of soft and hard phases), which helped to improve the healing effect as much as possible by effective wound closure and the exchange reactions of disulfide bonds.

Abstract
This work estimates that if the growth of polymer production continues at its current rate of 5% each year, the current annual production of 395 million tons of plastic will exceed 1000 million tons by 2039. Only 9% of the plastics that are currently produced are recycled while most of these materials end up in landfills or leak into oceans, thus creating severe environmental challenges. Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) materials can play a significant role in reducing the burden posed by plastics materials on the environment because CANs are reusable and recyclable. This review is focused on recent research related to CANs of polycarbonates, polyesters, polyamides, polyurethanes, and polyurea. In particular, trends in self-healing CANs systems, the market value of these materials, as well as mechanistic insights regarding polycarbonates, polyesters, polyamides, polyurethanes, and polyurea are highlighted in this review. Finally, the challenges and outlook for CANs are described herein.
