Abstract

The world is evolving with new technology, and people are becoming smart each and every day with science and technology. Smartness comes with complications, and these complications are needed, to solve the everyday problems of industry and society. Materials technology is also advancing, and smart materials are developed at a fast rate. Smart materials increase the efficiency of machinery. Self-healing materials are one category of the advanced materials. Self-healing materials increase the life span of components and also reduce the chances of catastrophic failure that is also helping in providing safety for the operator. Reducing the frequent intervention of human operators and also lessening the maintenance cost. Typical microscopic methods such as optical for maintenance purposes and scanning electron microscopy as well as analytical and spectroscopic methods like nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-transform infrared radiation (FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy employed for the evaluation and monitoring of self-healing effect are presented in the current chapter. In the self-healing concept, two methods are used to make materials self-healable, i.e. extrinsic and intrinsic strategies. In this chapter, recent progress in the extrinsic self-healing composites has been reported.
