A self-healing polymer material that includes a multiphase copolymer, and a method of making the copolymer, are provided. The multiphase copolymer includes one or more hydrogen bond-forming copolymer segments, each segment including a polymerized acrylamide monomer and a polymerized acrylic monomer. The polymerized acrylamide monomer includes functional groups that form hydrogen bonds in the multiphase copolymer, and is present in the one or more copolymer segments in an amount sufficient for self-healing of the multiphase copolymer.

The present invention provides, inter alia, a process for incorporating a cyclopropenium ion into a polymeric system. Processes for making cross-linked polymers, linear polymers, and dendritic polymers, as well as for incorporating a cyclopropenium ion onto a preformed polymer are also provided. Further provided are stable, polycationic compounds, various polymers that contain stable cyclopropenium cations, and substrates containing such polymers. The use of these polymers in water purification systems, antimicrobial coatings, ion-transport membranes, cell supports, drug delivery vehicles, and gene therapeutic vectors are also provided.
