Self-Healing iPhone Case

As if there weren’t enough accessories for your iPhone, Nissan has come up with the new Nissan Scratch Shield iPhone case. The iPhone case features Nissan’s new ground-breaking technology - a self-healing paint. This unique technology was initially designed for use on cars, but is now being used for the Nissan iPhone accessories.
The world’s first self-healing iPhone Case is impressive, to say the least. The case is made of ABS plastic, which is more rigid and robust than other plastics, preventing any damage to the iPhone. The outer coat is made from polyrotaxane, where the chemical structure of the surface is malleable and has the ability to change back to its original shape.
What does this mean? Quite simply, that the next time you drop your iPhone and it gets that soul-destroying first scratch, the paint will mend itself almost before your heart is done sinking.
The gel-like surface is also scratch-resistant and adds a better grip, which can only prove useful when trying to take down an all-important number in the early hours of the morning.
The initial batch of prototypes are available, and if there's a strong demand, we'll see the cases becoming available towards the end of the year.
