Which property increases in liquid silicone polymers when silica nanoparticles impede chain movement?

💡 Explanation

Increased crosslinking occurs because the added nanoparticles promote chain entanglement via steric hindrance, therefore tensile strength increases, rather than other material properties changing because the molecular interactions are primarily mechanical and physical.
