The solution for the self-healing phone screen is here

A recently published study has learned that a new polymer with high hardness and glass-like properties can recover itself by applying a lightweight , hand- held force that can be applied to produce future release.

According to PhoneArena, conventional self-healing polymer materials will require up to 120 degrees Celsius of heat. However, the newly developed polymer material does not require such high temperatures. And this is not the first time people have developed a kind, which can be used to produce such displays.

In March, chemists at the University of California and the University of Colorado in the US discovered a self-healing material with the ability to stretch to 50 times its original size. In August, Motorola also announced that it had patented a self-healing display.

The new study, published in the journal Science, was developed by the University of Tokyo, led by Professor Takuzo Aida. Like many discoveries in human history, this material is found ... accidentally. A student nicknamed Yu Yanagisawa noticed that the cut edges of the polymer would stick together when pressed down by hand force at 21 degrees Celsius. Yu suggested that he create a new adhesive, but actually The result is a new kind of material that has a huge potential for creating smartphones that are capable of self-healing in the future.

One day, we'll be holding smartphones that, when accidentally dropped, you can carelessly sit down for a cup of coffee while the cracks on the screen disappear, and you There is a new smartphone as never happened.
