← ScienceWhich outcome would manifest when thermally stressing buckled polymer chains?
A)Increased glass transition temperature
B)Reduced shear thinning behaviour
C)Entropic elasticity enhancement✓
D)Restricted piezoelectric coefficient change
💡 Explanation
Heating buckled polymers increases entropic elasticity because the restoring forces are a result of the polymer chains re-coiling, therefore elasticity will rise as thermal influence increases, rather than piezoelectric effect restricting from induced charge.
