A self-healing polybenzoxazine is synthesized solely based on dynamic ester bonds. For this purpose, an anhydride (succinic anhydride) was added into bisphenol F derived benzoxazine monomer before thermocuring. Owing to the transesterification of newly formed ester bonds, the thermoset network behaves as a thermoplastic at 140 °C in the presence of Zn (Ac)<sub>2</sub>, and shows self-healing properties even after multiple damage-healing cycles. Furthermore, kinetics study indicates that the tran ...[more]
