Which consequence results when thermal stress ruptures polymer's bonds?

💡 Explanation

A sudden temperature increase can break weaker van der Waals bonds in plastics. Polymer's glass transition decreases because bond breakage increases chain mobility; therefore the material softens rather than undergoing polymerization or increasing dielectric strength under these conditions.
