Which risk increases when thermosetting polymer composites exceed curing temperature?

A)Exothermic reaction causing thermal runaway
B)Hydrogen embrittlement becomes substantial quickly
C)Hydrolysis cleaves monomer chains irreversibly
D)Crystalline domain realignment induces sheer fracture

💡 Explanation

Exceeding curing temperature accelerates the cross-linking process excessively, causing the exothermic reaction involved in polymerization to overheat, creating runaway. Therefore thermal runaway greatly increases rather than hydrogen embrittlement; other scenarios are specific reactions.
