N2  - This chapter discusses the basic extrinsic, intrinsic, and combined extrinsic/intrinsic strategies for equipping thermosetting polymers with self-healing properties. The main focus will be on the presentation of a holistic optimization of thermosetting materials, that is, on a simultaneous optimization of both self-healing and other, specialized material properties. Due to their very rigid, highly cross-linked three-dimensional structure, thermosetting polymers require special chemical strategies to achieve self-healing properties. The main chemical strategies available for this will be briefly outlined. The examples given illustrate interesting and/or typical procedures and serve as an inspiration to find solutions for your own applications. They summarize important recent development in research and technology aiming toward multifunctional truly smart self-healing thermosetting materials. An important aspect in this topic area is also how precisely the self-healing effects are analytically checked, quantified, and evaluated. A range of measuring methods is available for this purpose. In this chapter, the most important analytical tools for testing self-healing properties are briefly introduced and highlighted with some illustrative examples.
