Abstract
A composite material implements self-healing microcapsules in thermoplastic matrices, such as polyethylene. A microencapsulated dicyclopentadiene monomer and a solid phase Grubbs'"'"'s catalyst is embedded in a polyethylene matrix to achieve self-healing properties. Nanofillers may be added to improve the properties of the polyethylene matrix incorporating a self-healing system.
