| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of long-life of materials is a new system for healing the cracks automatically using microcapsules incorporating healing agent. We encapsulated a reactive monomer as a healing agent in microcapsules. In the system, the microcapsules are incorporated in the polymer materials. Cracks rupture the microcapsules with a high content of healing agent. It would achieve efficient healing of cracks in structural polymer materials. In this research, we report a model for healing at a low-temperature by using metal catalyst. Using a cobalt bromide as a catalyst, a model material with MC and catalyst could heal up to 80% compared to an original one without MC and catalyst. Furthermore, as a result of evaluating flexural modulus of the polymer material with MC, it was revealed that addition of MC up to 15 wt% in the material does not affect the mechanical properties of the material.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
マイクロカプセルを利用する自己修復材料の開発は、修理が不可能か容易でない部材の修理にかかる時間、コスト、専門技術を必要としない点を考えると画期的な技術開発であると考えられる。また、自己修復を実現する高分子材料を基盤技術とし、自動車、航空機業界、建設などの産業界、プラスチックの減容化など環境・資源対策技術分野、リサイクル技術分野にインパクトを与え、多大な貢献が可能である。
