ABSTRACT
Polymers may suffer from sudden mechanical damages during long-term use under various harsh operating environments. Rapid and real-time self-healing will extend their service life, which is particularly attractive in the context of circular economy. In this work, a lignin cluster polymerization strategy (LCPS) was designed to prepare a series of lignin functionalized polyolefin composites with excellent mechanical properties through nickel catalyzed copolymerization of ethylene and lignin cluster monomers. These composites can achieve rapid self-healing within 30â
seconds under a variety of extreme usage environments (underwater, seawater, extremely low temperatures as low as -60 °C, organic solvents, acid/alkali solvents, etc.), which is of great significance for real-time self-healing of sudden mechanical damage. More importantly, the dynamic cross-linking network within these composites enable great re-processability and amazing sealing performances.
