Scientists develop self-healing material that mimics human skin

yahoo.com

Scientists have developed a new self-healing material that mimics human skin, capable of stretching, healing, and returning to its original shape. This advanced carbon-fiber plastic composite, Aromatic Thermosetting Copolyester, can repair cracks with heat and is a more sustainable alternative to traditional plastics. The material's adaptive chemistry remains stable through multiple reshaping cycles, offering potential applications in defense, aerospace, and automotive industries.
