description Self-healing rubber is a new group of smart material which has the ability to restore the damages without manual intervention. The work carried out in this thesis explored the potential of intrinsic self-healing natural rubber based on reversible metal thiolate ionic networks, thermo-reversible Zn2+ salt bonding and thermo-reversible disulphide exchange.
