Abstract | Cited by

A self-healing material containing two reversible cross-linkers was made. Relatively rapidly exchanging hydrogen-bonded and slowly exchanging Diels–Alder based cross-linkers were incorporated. Two time scales allowed partial healing at room temperature, and near complete healing upon heating. Slow linkers limited creep at room temperature but allowed reshaping upon heating.
