23、ps. Japanese researchers say they have developed a new type of glass that can heal itself from cracks and breaks. Glass made from a low weight polymer (聚合物) called “polyether-thioureas” can heal breaks when pressed together by hand without the need for high heat to melt the material.The research, pu
24、blished in Science, by researchers led by Professor Takuzo Aida from the University of Tokyo, promises healable glass that could potentially be used in phone screens and other fragile (易碎的) devices, which they say are an important challenge for sustainable (可持续的) societies.While self-healing rubber
25、and plastics have already been developed, the researchers said that the new material was the first hard substance of its kind that can be healed at room temperature. The new polymer glass is “highly robust mechanically yet can readily be repaired by compression (压紧) at broken surfaces”.The character
26、istics of the polyether-thioureas glass were discovered by accident by a graduate school student named Yu Yanagisawa, who was preparing the material as a glue. Yanagisawa found that when the surface of the polymer was cut, the edges would adhere to each other, healing to form a strong sheet after be
27、ing manually compressed for 30 seconds at 21CFurther experiments found that the healed material regained its original strength after a couple of hours.Yanagisawa told NHK that he didnt believe the results at first and repeated his experiments several times to confirm the finding. He said, “I hope th
28、e repairable glass becomes a new environment-friendly material that avoids the need to be thrown away if broken.”This is not the first time a polymer has been suggested as a healable screen for devices such as smartphones. Researchers at the University of California suggested the use of polymer that
29、 could stretch to 50 times its original size and heal breaks within 24 hours.Smartphone manufacturers have already used self-healing materials in devices. LGs G Flex 2 shipped in 2016 with a coating on its back was capable of healing minor scratches over time, although failed to completely repair he
30、avier damage.According to the research conducted by repair firm iMend, over 21% of UK smartphone users were living with a broken screen, with smashed displays being one of the biggest issues alongside poor battery life.39What is the main characteristic of the new glass?AIt can be healed at room temp
