The concept of a circular economy has long been a concern for the scientific and polymer technology communities.
There has been a persistent search for solutions that can counteract the effects of the linear economy, based on the principle of manufacturing, consuming, and discarding rubber — since at the end of its service life, it simply becomes waste.
An alternative within the circular economy is to replace disposal with restoration, thereby promoting a more rational use of resources.
Self-healing materials are those capable of restoring their properties either autonomously or when an external stimulus is applied, resulting in extended service life, energy savings, reduced consumption of raw materials, and lower waste generation.
Sustainability is no longer just a trend; it has become a global necessity. Advancing in the search for methods and solutions that safeguard our planet is a responsibility shared by all of us who are part of this industry.
