Mathematical Solvability of a Caputo Fractional Polymer Degradation Model Using Further Generalized Functions
The continuous fission equation with derivative of fractional order α, describing the polymer chain degradation, is solved explicitly. We prove that, whether the breakup rate depends on the size of the chain breaking up or not, the evolution of the polymer sizes distribution is governed by a combina...
