A state-of-art guide on the interdisciplinary aspects of design, chemistry, and physical properties of bio-inspired self-healing polymers. Inspired by the natural self-healing properties that exist in living organisms�for example, the regenerative ability of humans to heal from cuts and broken bones�interest in self-healing materials is gaining more and more attention.

Processing techniques are critical to the performance of polymer products which are used in a wide range of industries. Advances in polymer processing: from macro- to nano- scales reviews the latest advances in polymer processing, techniques and materials.
