Abstract

A facile method to prepare a self-healing polymeric material with tunable mechanical properties is developed. The material has a remarkable self-healing efficiency via the formation of multiple dynamic hydrogen bonds. It can resist the corrosion of various organic solvents and can also be readily processed into a range of shapes.
