A sample of the self-healing asphalt. — King’s College London
British and Chilean researchers have succeeded in developing a self-healing type of asphalt made from organic waste materials. Artificial intelligence helped optimise this solution.
Imagine if even the smallest crack in the road could heal itself, without any outside intervention, thanks to a completely new type of asphalt. This is precisely what scientists from Swansea University in Wales and King's College London have developed, with the help of researchers in Chile. Could this mean the end of potholes, a major source of accidents and damage to vehicles?
