Which consequence results when excessive mechanical stress induces bond scission?

A)Mechano-radicals form, initiating polymerization✓

B)Increased crystallinity enhances material rigidity

C)Enhanced cross-linking improves elasticity

D)Induced doping alters semiconductor properties

💡 Explanation

Mechanical stress breaks covalent bonds via homolytic cleavage, inducing radical formation, therefore forming mechano-radicals which can initiate uncontrolled polymerization reactions, rather than promoting crystallinity or cross-linking like other reactions under thermal conditions.
