Microencapsulation of natural vegetable oil as a self-healing agent on metal coating became demanded lately. This paper underlines the microcapsule containing natural and wastes sunflower oil as a self-healing agent that was fabricated for the backbone of corrosion coatings. The results in this paper indicated the distinguished potential of waste sunflower oil as compared to natural sunflower oil. The diameter of microcapsules synthesized from natural sunflower oil and waste sunflower oil both in range of 3-4 µm. The shell of microcapsules microencapsulated from natural sunflower oil showed rough micro-structure while the shell of microcapsules microencapsulated from waste sunflower oil showed smooth micro-structure. The main parameter studied in this research was the varient of stirring speed during the process of microencapsulation. The involvement of stirring speed starts from 200 to 400 rpm. The microcapsules undergo varient of stirring speed analyzed on the yield and core content of microcapsules. The microcapsules from natural produced 29-50% while waste resources bring 26-48% of yield productions. The core content of microencapsulated natural sunflower oil generates 55-64% core content as comparing with waste sources which produce 56-67% of core content. It can be concluded that it was proved that sunflower oil could be considered as an alternative resource for self-healing agent in metal coating either encapsulated from natural or waste raw materials. The incorporation of green and natural material as a self-healing agent significantly influences the sustaining the environment to the safest stage.

As an intelligent material, microcapsules can efficiently self-heal internal microcracks and microdefects formed in cement-based materials during service and improve their durability. In this paper, microcapsules of nano-CaCO3/ceresine wax composite shell encapsulated with E-44 epoxy resin were prepared via the melt condensation method. The core content, compactness, particle size distribution, morphologies, chemical structure and micromechanical properties of microcapsules were characterized. The results showed that the encapsulation ability, mechanical properties and compactness of microcapsules were further improved by adding nano-CaCO3 to ceresine wax. The core content, elastic modulus, hardness and weight loss rate (60 days) of nano-CaCO3/ceresine wax composite shell microcapsules (WM2) were 80.6%, 2.02 GPA, 72.54 MPa and 1.6%, respectively. SEM showed that WM2 was regularly spherical with a rough surface and sufficient space inside the microcapsules to store the healing agent. The incorporation of WM2 to mortar can greatly improve the self-healing ability of mortar after pre-damage. After 14 days of self-healing, the compressive strength recovery rate, proportion of harmful pores and chloride ion diffusion coefficient recovery rate increased to 90.1%, 45.54% and 79.8%, respectively. In addition, WM2 also has good self-healing ability for mortar surface cracks, and cracks with initial width of less than 0.35 mm on the mortar surface can completely self-heal within 3 days.

Polyurethane (PU) microcapsules containing toluene diisocyanate (TDI) healing agent were synthesized by mixing PU with chain extender ethyleneglycol (EG) via interfacial polymerization of oil–in–water (gum arabic emulsifier). The morphology and size of the capsules greatly depend on a variety of factors including dispersion speed and emulsifier ratio. The preparation of PU prepolymer and microcapsulation of TDI are presented. The diameter of smooth spherical microcapsules ranged from 93, 160 and 239 µm are produced by varying the agitation rate from 800 rpm to 1200 rpm. The core content of microcapsules is influenced by the ratio of chlorobenzene (CB) solvent in oil phase. The microcapsules have about 40.5 wt% of core which are capable of application in self–healing coatings when using 20 wt% CB and 17.5 wt% emulsifer ratio.

Wall Materials

Self-healing epoxy resin microcapsules are prepared by interfacial polymerization, in which the core materials are epoxy resin, the wall materials are constructed with triethylenetetramine and the epoxy resin. The orthogonal experimental L9(34) are designed to investigate the influence of emulsifier dosage, hardener dosage, curing temperature and hardener adding rate on the core content and storage life of epoxy resin microcapsule. Scanning electron microscope is used to characterize surface topography and distribution. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is used to study reaction mechanism of the microcapsule wall materials, respectively. The results indicate that when the dosage of emulsifier is 1.2%, the dosage of hardener is 1.2%, the hardener droplets adding rate is 1.2 g/h and the curing temperature is 50°C, the prepared microcapsules with a high level of core content are spherical in shape with good surface compactness and dispersibility. Future research may focus on improving microcapsule storage stability and the obstacles encountered in practical applications.

The effectiveness of preploymer and 1,6-Hexamethylene diamine encapsulated by double-walled microcapsules based polyurea (PUA) was explored for healing the cracks generated in epoxy coatings. Double-walled microcapsules were systhesized by interfacial polymerization at the interface between the prepolymer droplets and the 1,6-Hexamethylene diamine droplets to form the polyurea shell. The effect of synthetic stirring speed on the morphology of the microcapsules was observed by scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy (OM). The chemical structure as well as the thermal properties and the core content were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) respectively. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies of the artificial scratched area showed that the coating containing 2wt% and 5wt% microcapsules could effectively prevent further corrosion of the coating with high corrosion resistance efficiencies of 61.61% and 45.99% after immersing for 144h in seawater.

Self-healing of cracks in cementitious materials using healing agents encapsulated in microcapsules is an intelligent and effective method. In this study, microcapsules were prepared by the melt–dispersion–condensation method using microcrystalline wax as the shell and E-51 epoxy resin as the healing agent. The effects of preparation process parameters and microcrystalline wax/E-51 epoxy resin weight ratio on the core content, particle size distribution, thermal properties, morphology, and chemical composition of microcapsules were investigated. The results indicated that the optimal parameters of the microcapsule were microcrystalline wax/E-51 epoxy resin weight ratio of 1:1.2, stirring speed of 900 rpm, and preparation temperature of 105 °C. The effects of microcapsules on pore size distribution, pore structure, mechanical properties, permeability, and ultrasonic amplitude of mortar were determined, and the self-healing ability of mortar with different contents of microcapsules was evaluated. The optimal content of microcapsules in mortars was 4% of the cement weight, and the surface cracks of mortar containing microcapsules with an initial width of 0.28 mm were self-healed within three days, indicating that microcapsules have excellent self-healing ability for cementitious materials.

Healing System

Thermoset epoxies are widely used due to their excellent properties, but conventional epoxies require a complicated and time-consuming curing process, and they cannot self-healed, which limits their applications in self-healing materials. Extrinsic and intrinsic self-healing materials are applied in various fields due to their respective characteristics, but there is a lack of comparison between the two types of healing systems. Based on this, a thiol-epoxide click reaction catalyzed by an organic base was introduced to achieve the efficient preparation of thiol-epoxy. Furthermore, tung oil (TO)-loaded microcapsules were introduced into the thiol-epoxy matrix of dynamic transesterification to obtain a TO/TMMP-TMTGE self-healing composite with an intrinsic–extrinsic double-healing system. For comparison, a TMMP-TMTGE self-healing material with an intrinsic healing system was also prepared, which contained only thiol and epoxy curing chemistries. The effect of the core/shell ratio on the morphology, average particle size, and core content of TO-loaded microcapsules was studied. It was found that when the core/shell ratio was 3:1, the average particle size of the microcapsules was about 99.8 μm, and the microcapsules showed good monodispersity, as well as a core content of about 58.91%. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the TO core was successfully encapsulated and remained effective after encapsulation. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), tensile tests, and electrochemical tests were carried out for the two types of self-healing materials. The results showed that the TO/TMMP-TMTGE composite and TMMP-TMTGE material both had self-healing properties. In addition, the TO/TMMP-TMTGE composite was superior to the TMMP-TMTGE material due to its better self-healing performance, mechanical strength, and corrosion protection performance.

This paper emphasizes the characterization on the microencapsulation of sunflower oil as self-healing agent. In-situ polymerization method mainly implicates in the microencapsulation process. The analysation of microencapsulated sunflower oil via prominent characterization of yield of microcapsules, microcapsules characteristics and Fourier Transmission Infa-Red Spectroscopy (FTIR). The prime optimization used was reaction time of microencapsulation process in the ranges of 2, 3 and 4 h. The higher reaction time of microencapsulation process resulted in a higher yield of microcapsules. The yield of microcapsules increases from 46 to 53% respectively by the increasing of reaction time from 2 to 4 h. The surface morphology study associating the diameter of microcapsules measured to analyse the prepared microcapsules. It was indicated that microcapsules were round in shape with smooth micro-surfaces. It was discovered that the diameter of microcapsules during microencapsulation process after 4 h reaction time was in average of 70.53 μm. This size was measured before filtering the microcapsules with solvent and dried in vacuum oven. Apparently, after filtering and drying stage, the diameter of microcapsules specifically identified under Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) showing the size of 2.33 μm may be due to the removing the suspended oil surrounded the microcapsules. Sunflower oil as core content and UF as shell of microcapsules demonstrated the proven chemical properties on characterization by FTIR with the stretching peak of 1537.99 - 1538.90 cm-1 (-H in-CH2), 1235.49 - 1238.77 cm-1 (C-O-C Vibrations at Ester) and 1017.65 - 1034.11 cm-1 (C-OH Stretching Vibrations). It was showed that sunflower oil can be considered as an alternative nature resource for self-healing agent in microencapsulation process. The characterization of microencapsulated sunflower oil using in-situ polymerization method showed that sunflower oil was viable healant to be encapsulated and incorporated in metal coating.
