Dual regulation of flexible chain segments and dynamic covalent bonds for a self-healable copolyimide
Huizhu Liu, Baoquan Wan, J. Wang, Xing Jiang, Jun‐Wei Zha
Abstract
A copolymerized polyimide is prepared by a simple process of combining flexible PDMS chain segments and monomers containing disulfide bonds. The material shows good self-healing ability after mechanical/electrical damage.
