Well it has been achieved folks — a full self-healing iPhone case from Nissan. Before you get to excited, you can’t expect to throw this case off a building onto concrete and for it to survive. Nissan has stated that this case is scratch resistant (or provides some form of resistance) but in the event of the case being scratched, the outer paint can self-repair minor scratches.

The outer ‘paint’ is made from polyrotaxane, which means that when damage occurs to the coating in the form of a fine scratch, the chemical structure is able to react to change back to its original shape and fill the gap – ‘healing’ the blemish.

As of now, the case isn’t on the market
