«The point is that you are
breaking weaker bonds and making a very strong bond,» says Poliakoff.

If the Dollar
broke lower, its likely too that
bonds and duration would rally; defensives (staples, utes, reits) and growth (tech / biotech / discret) squeeze against crowded value unwinding (fins, energy, indus); yen and euro would squeeze mightily; gold squeezes while copper pukes in a favorite commodities «pair» unwind; HY could reverse
weaker vs IG (currently everybody long CCC vs BB on the high beta trade)... this would be the theoretical path to our next pain - trade or even VaR shock.
It will shear the
weak bonds that keep the molecules of plastic sticking together but it will not
break the plastic molecules themselves — that is, the bowling ball
breaking the plastic film does not generate enough heat to set the plastic on fire.
Keeping that in mind, Holland and his team designed a new compound with two distinct properties found in nitrogenase: large shielding groups of atoms that prevented undesired reactions, and a
weak iron - sulfur
bond that could
break easily upon the addition of electrons.
In 2008, Ludwik Leibler, a chemist at the Industrial Physics and Chemistry Higher Educational Institution (ESPCI) in Paris, harnessed another (
weaker) type of
bonding — hydrogen
bonding — to make a self - repairing rubber that heals itself when two
broken sides are simply compressed together.
At that temperature, carbonate (a
weak, non-hazardous base) can
break the hydrogen - carbon
bond.
They can do a lot of damage by
breaking down
weaker bonds in molecules.
There are covalent
bonds, which are strong and don't readily reform once
broken; and noncovalent
bonds, which are
weaker and more dynamic.
«If the interaction strength is too
weak, the substrate causes the flake to buckle; but if the interaction is too strong, the inner
bonds between the phosphorene atoms will
break and an alloy may form.»
Arsenate forms much
weaker bonds in water than phosphate, that
break apart on the order of minutes, he says, and though there might be other molecules stabilizing these
bonds, the researchers would need to explain this discrepancy for the hypothesis to stand.
High - temperature processing causes the
weak carbon
bonds of unsaturated fatty acids, especially triple unsaturated linolenic acid, to
break apart, thereby creating dangerous free radicals.
The
bonds that hold the glucose are
weaker in these foods and are easily
broken apart by the digestive system.
Reaching the high pressures required for the normally
weaker hydrogen
bonds to
break water apart requires a very small sample.
