Fracture and fatigue of entangled and unentangled polymer networks

Dongchang Zheng et al.

Summary: In this paper, the effects of chain entanglement on fracture and fatigue of polymer networks are studied using polyacrylamide hydrogels as a model material. The study reveals that entangled polymer networks exhibit significantly enhanced fracture toughness, possibly due to the pull-out of chains and/or delocalized damage of chains around the crack tip.
