Development of novel composite material for safety helmets, boat hulls and lifeboat containers that has self-repairing and visual inspection features

Objective

Our idea is to develop the novel composite material that contains microencapsulated polymer spheres containing coloured resins. These spheres will provide direct visual inspection possibilities as after impact the surface of the composite will change the colour depending on the severity of the impact. This composite material possesses also self-repairing feature for due to impact these shells containing different resins will broke and disengaged substance will rapidly repair damages of composite material.
