Surprise! Weaker bonds can make polymers stronger - By adding weak linkers to a polymer network, chemists dramatically enhanced the material's resistance to tearing

A team of chemists from MIT and Duke University has discovered a counterintuitive way to make polymers stronger: introduce a few weaker bonds into the material.

Surprise! Weaker bonds can make polymers stronger

Chemists discovered a new way to make polymers stronger: introduce a few weaker bonds into the material. Working with polyacrylate elastomers, they could increase the materials’ resistance to tearing up to tenfold by using a weaker type of crosslinker to join some of the polymer building blocks.
