Abstract
A repairable electrical component includes one or more electrodes and a pliable casing, the one or more electrodes positioned within the pliable casing, wherein the repairable electrical component is configured to self-repair if the repairable electrical component or any part of the repairable component is partially damaged. A method of forming a repairable electrical component includes forming one or more electrodes, the electrodes comprising a core, an intermediate layer of ferromagnetic material and a pyrrole based material defining an outer layer, the outer layer encapsulating the core and ferromagnetic layer, positioning the one or more electrodes within an electrolyte, providing a casing to enclose the one or more electrodes and the electrolyte, the casing formed from a polyurethane material.
