Collagen breaks at weak sacrificial bonds taming its mechanoradicals [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Collagen is a force-bearing, hierarchical structural protein important to all connective tissue. In tendon collagen, high load even below macroscopic failure level creates mechanoradicals by homolytic bond scission, similar to polymers.

Thermodynamics of Extra-Toughness and Hidden-Length in Polymeric Materials with Sacrificial Bonds
Applied Mechanics, 2022 Sacrificial bonds have been observed in several biological materials and structures and can increase their toughness, i.e., their resistance to fracture.

Dynamics of polymer molecules with sacrificial bond and hidden length systems: towards a physically-based mesoscopic constitutive law. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 We investigate the entropic force-elongation behavior of a polymer chain in the presence of the sacrificial bond and hidden length (SBHL) system observed experimentally in many biomaterials.
