Novel self-assembly approach for fabricating self-healing siloxane films

Caption

Researchers at Waseda University developed a more efficient method to create self-healing films using organosiloxane and polydimethylsiloxane layers. The process involves depositing a precursor solution, forming a layered structure, and introducing silanolate groups for self-healing.
