Disclosed herein are self-healing systems that include corrosion inhibitors and self-healing materials that are capable of repairing themselves without any external intervention when they are damaged. The self-healing materials and corrosion inhibitors may be microencapsulated, and damage to a matrix containing the microcapsules may rupture the microcapsules and cause the self-healing materials and corrosion inhibitors to be released into the site of damage. The self-healing materials then may polymerize and restore the functional capabilities of the matrix, and the corrosion inhibitors may work in concert with the self healing materials to prevent corrosion at the site of damage.
