Which consequence results when titanium dioxide photocatalysis degrades polymers in adhesives?

💡 Explanation

Debonding occurs because photocatalysis breaks the covalent bonds within the polymer adhesive, leading to polymer chain scission; the Van der Waals forces are insufficiently strong, therefore premature structural failure results rather than long-term durability which relies on cohesive strength.
