ABSTRACT
In adherence to component matrices, mixtures fall into three categories: polymeric, metallic, and ceramic. Microscopic cracks lead to laminated substance failure, reducing reliability and durability. Self-healing methods, exemplified by the latest advancements, mitigate substance breakdown and extend lifespan without compromising functionality. Despite limited research on self-repair in various matrices, this study comprehensively covers all combination categories. Developed to repair fractures, prevent abandonment, and enhance building lifespan, self-healing mixtures exhibit promising potential. The article enlightens readers on contemporary self-healer applications across industries, encompassing aeronautics and automotive. It details recent developments, including micro-capsule encapsulated, fiber, and vascular system self-healer constructions, alongside evaluation and treatment strategies.
