exchange mechanism of dissociative CANs requires a bond-breaking event prior to the formation of a new bond (i.e. an elimination/addition pathway). Upon application of a stimulus, the equilibrium shifts to the dissociated state, resulting in a temporarily decreased cross-link density in the network. When a sufficient amount of dynamic bonds dissociate due to the equilibrium being shifted below the gel point, the material will suffer a loss of dimensional stability
