Abstract
- The mechanical degradation of polymers is typically limited to a single chain scission event and the loss of stress transfer during the scission process limits the extent of degradation achieved. Here, the authors report a mechanically triggered, delayed scission strategy that allows many eventual scission events to be initiated within a single polymer chain.
