Which consequence results when increased temperature fractures polymer adhesion?

A)Lowered tensile strength of the adhesive
B)Raised glass transition temperature reached
C)Increased van der Waals radius seen
D)Metallic bond formation in adhesive

💡 Explanation

Increased temperature causes chain mobility which activates **thermal degradation** of the adhesive polymer. Therefore, the tensile strength decreases, because chain interactions reduce, rather than other processes occurring like increased radius or metallic bond formation.
