Lafont, U. (author), Van Zeijl, H.W. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author)While conventional self healing materials focus on the restoration of mechanical properties, newer generations of self healing materials focus on the restoration of other functional (i.e. non-mechanical) properties. Thermal conductivity is an example of an important functional property of a Thermal Interface Material (TIM) for LEDs and...conference paper 2013

Prajer, M. (author), Wu, X. (author), Garcia Espallargas, S.J. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author)Polymers reinforced with high performance fibres are successfully replacing metal alloys in lightweight aircraft structures. A critical factor in structural design is the resistance of a structure to progressive damage which develops during its service time. The brittle nature of matrix cracking is the main source of composite failure initiating...conference paper 2013

(author)Several polymeric systems with intrinsic Self-Healing (SH) capabilities have been reported in literature. Many of them showed healing upon contact across the crack interface. Different parameters such as contact time, temperature, pressure or chemical activity determine the degree of healing obtained. In this work, a numerical simulation of the...conference paper 2013

Zhang, S. (author), Langelaan, G. (author), Schut, H. (author), Brück, E. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Van Dijk, N.H. (author)Steels are among the most widely used construction materials as their mechanical properties can be tuned over a very wide range of desired combinations of strength formability and other properties. However, when exposed for long times to high temperatures steel components can exhibit premature and low-ductility creep fracture, which arises from...conference paper 2013

Derelioglu, Z. (author), Anusuya Ponnusami, S. (author), Turteltaub, S. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)Crack healing in ceramic thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) may be realized by embedding Mo-Si based particles in the thermal barrier coating. Upon cracking, these particles are exposed to oxygen that permeates through the top layer and the crack gap is filled with SiO2 which is produced from oxidation at high temperature. Due to its amorphous...conference paper 2013

Shen, L. (author), Li, S.B. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)The oxidation crack healing of Cr2AlC and Cr2(Al,Si)C was studied and compared with known healing of Ti2AlC. The oxidation induced crack healing of Ti2AlC is relatively fast and leads to full strength recovery, but the oxidation product contains besides ?-Al2O3 also undesired TiO2. However, when oxidizing Cr2AlC only ?-Al2O3 is formed, but full...conference paper 2013

Farle, A. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)The reduction of maintenance and replacement work costs is an important driving force in the development of high temperature materials (T>800 °C) that can autonomously heal damage as a result of local cracks. In recent years some potential routes involving the addition of sacrificial particles have been identified, yet these systems have the...conference paper 2013

(author)A long-lasting barrier protection at damaged sites of coated system can be achieved by means of an active response of the primer. This may be attained through the release of reactive liquids from dispersed containers, the increase of the local mobility of the polymeric network, or the expansion of (dispersed elements in) the primer [1]. Such...conference paper 2013

(author)Because of its thermal reversibility, the retro-Diels-Alder (RDA) reaction represents an appealing possibility to produce self-healing polymers with well-defined architectures and tunable properties [1]. However, the polymer architecture for which the Diels-Alder (DA) reaction can best be used to contribute to the healing process is still not...conference paper 2013

Boatemaa, L. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)Structural ceramics like alumina are usually brittle and sensitive to flaws leading to a reduction in their mechanical properties. This situation is worsened by machining prior to service and during service by contact, which introduces micro cracks and hidden damages. Crack damage can easily be developed in such ceramics when loaded, which often...conference paper 2013

(author), Schubert, U.S. (author)In the last decade several intrinsic self-healing materials have been developed in which the healing mechanism was mainly based on the reversibility of a certain structural element. For this purpose, reversible covalent bonds, e.g., based on the Diels-Alder reaction or weaker non-covalent interactions, e.g., hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions...conference paper 2013
