Abstract:
A self-healing polymeric material includes a polymeric matrix material, a plurality of monomer mixture microcapsules dispersed in the polymeric matrix material, and a plurality of light generating microcapsules dispersed in the polymeric matrix material. Each monomer mixture microcapsule encapsulates a mixture of materials that includes monomers and a photoinitiator. Each light generating microcapsule encapsulates multiple reactants that undergo a chemiluminescent reaction. The chemiluminescent reaction generates a photon having a wavelength within a particular emission range that is consistent with an absorption range of the photoinitiator.

Claim (Index 11):
A process of utilizing chemiluminescence for polymeric self-healing, the process comprising:\n dispersing a monomer mixture microcapsule in a polymeric matrix material, the monomer mixture microcapsule encapsulating a mixture of materials that includes monomers and a photoinitiator; and dispersing a light generating microcapsule in the polymeric matrix material, the light generating microcapsule encapsulating multiple reactants that undergo a chemiluminescent reaction, wherein the chemiluminescent reaction generates a photon having a wavelength within a particular emission range that is consistent with an absorption range of the photoinitiator, wherein the monomer mixture microcapsule is adapted to rupture to cause migration of the mixture of materials into a crack in the polymeric matrix material, and wherein the light generating microcapsule is adapted to cause the multiple reactants to undergo the chemiluminescent reaction within the light generating microcapsule in response to application of a compressive force.
