42. Entanglements (unlike chemical crosslinks) may produce repulsive-glass-like relaxation because chain uncrossability is an effectively repulsive interaction, whereas properties in the elastic, yield and flow regimes are influenced to a much greater degree by attractive (e.g., van der Waals) interactions.
