High-Strength and Self-Healing Polyurethane Based on Dynamic Covalent Bonds for Concrete Protection
摘要
Abstract
To extend the service life of concrete in harsh environments, this paper introduces a silicone-modified polyurethane with self-repairing capabilities. The integration of silicone and disulfide bonding into the polyurethane molecular chain endows the material with a self-repairing ability and hydrophobicity. The incorporation of silicone significantly enhances the polyurethane’s hydrophobicity, while the introduction of disulfide bonds enables damage repair under mild conditions, and the repair efficiency can reach 90%. This combination of hydrophobicity and self-repairing properties holds paramount importance in protecting concrete and ensuring its prolonged use.
