← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when rapid cooling causes incomplete Crystal Nucleation during amorphous polymer synthesis?
A)Increased material brittleness occurs accordingly✓
B)Enhanced tensile strength gets realized
C)Higher corrosion resistance follows rapidly
D)Density remains unchanged systematically
💡 Explanation
Increased brittleness occurs because rapid cooling restricts the ordering of polymer chains, preventing full crystallization via Crystal Nucleation; therefore, disordered regions create stress concentration points, rather than improved strength due to uniform crystal structures.
