Which outcome accelerates nylon polymer degradation near sustained stress cracking?

💡 Explanation

Hydrolysis increases nylon degradation because water molecules attack and cleave the amide bonds via nucleophilic acyl substitution. Therefore hydrolysis dominates rather than oxidation, because stress exposure exposes more susceptible amide locations.
