The inherent room temperature mending and self-healing properties of saloplastic PAA/PAH CoPECs are studied. After ultracentrifugation of PAA/PAH polyelectrolyte complexes, tough, elastic materials are obtained that undergo self-healing facilitated by salt. At intermediate salt concentrations the CoPECs remain elastic enough to recover their original shape while the chains are mobile enough to repair the cut, thus leading to actual self-healing behavior.
