Healing through Histidine: Bioinspired Pathways to Self-Healing Polymers via Imidazole–Metal Coordination
Biology offers a valuable inspiration toward the development of self-healing engineering composites and polymers. In particular, chemical level design principles extracted from proteinaceous biopolymers, especially the mussel byssus, provide inspiration for design of autonomous and intrinsic healing...
