Chemical stress relaxation has been used for the characterization of elastomeric networks obtained either by peroxide curing or by photocrosslinking. It has been shown that the differences observed between photocrosslinked and peroxide‐cured elastomers are not limited to their structure and physical properties but are also due to the very nature of the created bonds.
