Revolutionary material makes clothes self-repairable!steemCreated with Sketch.

Scientists have designed a new "waterproof" material that may make clothes able to repair themselves if they are torn, and all that needs to be done is to pour water on the torn area only.
The researchers expect to use this innovation in a range of applications, including rain gear, medical instruments and self-cleaning windows.
Researchers at the University of Freiburg have developed this revolutionary material, which is an effective solution to many problems, found in nature, specifically in the skin of snakes and lizards.
The team began implementing this project by immersing a water-resistant polyurethane (PFA) tape, a type of water-soluble polymer in the center and an antipyretic layer (silicon nanograz) on the edges.

The researchers scrubbed and immersed the three-layer material: the top of the water, polymer and silicon, into the water, where the top layer would split and float, the bottom part being exposed and then the polymer would be the place of scratching.
Many scientists seem to be looking to use water to help develop self-sustaining materials. Penn State last year unveiled a similar innovation.
The researchers said that clothing can be wrapped with this innovative material, so that it can simply repair itself when torn, washed.
"Fashion designers use natural fibers made of wool or silk, which are very expensive and do not have the ability to repair themselves," said Milik C. Demirel, a professor of engineering. So we were looking for a way to make fabrics fit themselves using traditional textiles, and we got to this material. "
