A composition can photocatalytically reduce carbon dioxide.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of self-healing a polymer matrix comprising: exposing a polymer matrix including a catalyst to carbon dioxide and an energy source; and generating additional material to the polymer matrix from the carbon dioxide. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst includes a chloroplast, a nanocatalyst, or a colloidal battery. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polymer matrix includes a chloroplast in a hydrogel. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the polymer matrix further comprises a nanoparticle. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the nanoparticle includes ceria. 6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the polymer matrix further comprises a glucosidase, a glucose dehydrogenase or a hexokinase. 7. The method of claim 3 , wherein the polymer matrix further comprises a graphene oxide. 8. The method of claim 3 , wherein the polymer matrix further comprises an acrylamide. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the energy source includes light energy, chemical energy or electrical energy.
