Self-healing polymer materials (SHPM) have aroused great interests in recent years. Ideal SHPM should have not only simple operations, but also high elongations at break, tensile strain and self-healing properties at room temperature. Herein, the amidated carbon fibers (CFs) reinforced self-healing polymer composites were designed by hydrogen bonding interaction between functionalized CFs and hyperbranched polymers. The amidated CFs were prepared by transformation of hydroxyl to acylamino through a one-step amidation. By introducing amidated CFs, amidated CFs self-healing polymer composites (called AD-CF) exhibited many desirable characteristics compared to pure polymer composites, such as a better elasticity, lower healing temperatures, and higher self-healing efficiencies. The stress-strain test was selected to carefully study the self-healing property of the AD-CF. The observed same recovery condition, i.e. without any mechanical breakdown after the 10 sequential cycles of cutting and healing indicates no aging of the AD-CF. The ability of AD-CF to exhibit a soft state and rapid self-healing at room temperature makes it possible for much wider applications.
