Abstract: In certain examples, methods and devices, such as a soft electronics device, involve or include a first layer and a second layer from among the plurality of immiscible polymer layers, with the first and second layers integrated with one another to form a multilayered self-healing laminate, characterized in that polymer material in the first layer and polymer material in the second layer are cooperatively capable of autonomously recovering from at least one of the first layer and second layer being misaligned.

Abstract: A polyphosphate material is disclosed. The polyphosphate material can include a plurality of polyphosphate chains. The polyphosphate chains can have a backbone that include oxygen-phosphate bonds. Two or more cations can be included. Further, the polyphosphate material can be amorphous. The two or more cations can be monovalent cations, divalent cations, trivalent cations, tetravalent cations, and combinations thereof. The two or more cations can be lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, francium, ammonium, beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, radium, zinc, titanium, iron (Fe2+), chromium (Cr2+), manganese (Mn2+), cobalt (Co2+), nickel (Ni2+), copper (Cu2+), cadmium, tin (Sn2+), mercury (Hg2+), lead (Pb2+), aluminum, boron, gallium, iron (Fe+3), chromium (Cr+3), cobalt (Co+3), gold (Au+3), antimony (Sb+3), nickel (Ni+3), bismuth (Bi+3), manganese (Mn+3) zirconium, silicon, and combinations of thereof. The two or more cations can be monovalent cations.
