Use of corn extract Germany to develop self-healing car paint paint

days ago, Germany's Leibniz Institute for New Materials announced that it has developed corn-based paint, this new corn-based paint is expected to fill scratches and vortex marks, if the vehicle encounters scratches and vortex traces will usually damage the outer layer of the paint surface transparent paint, and corn-based paint can be heated to form a flexible coatingthis type of corn-based paint, which is extracted mainly from corn starch, has what scientists call "nanomolecules" and contains cyclodextrin moleculesMolecules can be worn on polymer molecular chains, which allow cyclodextrin to move freely on this chainAt the same time, they do not fall off because of the presence of other moleculesThe self-healing power of cyclodextrin comes from the fact that they are cross-linked and become active through chemical reactionshowever, since all the molecules that need to work are hot, they need to be performed at 212 degrees FahrenheitCurrently, scientists are able to reduce the repair time to one minute, and it will take hours for the molecules to move in the case of a lower temperaturehowever, the German company is not the first to break into the "self-healing coatings" spaceLast year, a company in Illinois named Feinrab announced a self-healing coatingIts formula is also suitable for paint surfaces, and if something destroys the binding of the coating, it will fill the scratchesnothing about how much the German Institute plans to charge for the lacquerware, but it is trying to find a partner to commercialize its technologyMeanwhile, Finn's lab's process costs about $2,500 (about Rmb16,800)That's the price we pay for the perfect transparent coat
