A complete panorama of self-healing strategies Self-Healing at the Nanoscale: Mechanisms and Key Concepts of Natural and Artificial Systems focuses on the development of new nanoscale self-healing systems from general concepts to physical chemical mechanisms. With a special emphasis on key concepts strategies and mechanisms at the atomic molecular and nanometric scales this book is made up of three parts: Natural Self-Healing Systems covers paradigmatic self-repair systems developed by nature in living organisms Artificial Self-Healing Systems describes various materials whose structures have been engineered at the micro- or nanoscale to obtain self-repair ability Frontiers of Self-Healing Systems includes contributions on systems studied in recent years that have shown potential for developing or inspiring new self-healing nanomaterials The development of self-healing systems especially concerning materials and the nanoscale is a nascent yet appealing topic for scientists in fields ranging from engineering to biology. Self-Healing at the Nanoscale provides a broad view of the concepts mechanisms and types of self-healing systems at the nanoscale forming a guide to the field and inspiring the development of self-healing systems for the future. |Self-Healing at the Nanoscale Mechanisms and Key Concepts of Natural and Artificial Systems | Chemistry
