The extent of photolysis of the surface of an elastomer may be characterized semiquantitatively by utilizing the physical model of a two‐ply stressed beam. A brief mathematical exposition is given. This permits a numerical estimate of the degree of chain scission and crosslinking occurring in the surface during photolysis.
