Which risk increases when high power microwave radiation is applied to liquid crystal polymer?

💡 Explanation

When high-power microwave radiation is applied to liquid crystal polymers, it induces dielectric heating which causes chain scission of ester bonds because the microwave energy excites molecular vibrations, leading to bond breakage. Therefore, chain scission occurs, rather than nitration, crosslinking, or methylation which require different chemical reagents or conditions.
