Intrinsic room temperature self-healing natural rubber based on metal thiolate ionic network

An intrinsic self-healing natural rubber featuring reversible metal-thiolate ion networks was fabricated and the corresponding healing mechanism and mechanical properties were presented. The developed materials were able to repair themselves at room temperature upon damage without any external stimu...
