It is possible to tailor the dynamic response of polyborosiloxanes (PBS) based on picking the right molecular weight of a precursor. The molecular weight of hydroxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) defines the shear-stiffening performance of PBS due to straightforward condensation reaction bet...
