Molecular degradation of poly(diacetylenes), in particular with production of poly(diacetylenes) having selected molecular weights, is carried out by a process in which the poly(diacetylenes), for example in solution or as solid or liquid layers, are present as a homogeneous mixture with sensitizers or sensitizer systems which can be activated chemically, those which can be activated by heat and/or those which can be activated by actinic light, and degradation of the poly(diacetylenes) is induced, in particular via free radical reactions, by appropriate activation of these sensitizers or sensitizer systems. |
