MEND 1000 is a thermally-induced, self-healing coating. The 2-part coating involves a unique phase-separated morphology that facilitates the delivery of the self-healing agent to the damage site (such as a scratch or crack) thereby restoring the coating appearance & function. The coating can be self-healed by the application of warm air for several seconds with a simple device, such as a household hair dryer.

NEI Corporation has developed a technology platform of self-healing coatings. The technology is applicable to a broad range of substrates such as metal, wood, and polymers – including those that require maintaining a clear glossy appearance.

"NANOMYTE® MEND 1000 is based on US Patent 8,987,352, where a thermally induced physical self-healing phenomenon leads to gap closing and crack sealing. The self-healing coating involves a unique phase-separated morphology that facilitates the delivery of the self-healing agent to the damage site (such as a scratch or crack) thereby restoring the coating appearance & function. The coating can be self-healed by the application of warm air for a few seconds with a simple device such as a household hair dryer." - NANOMYTE® MEND Brochure
