Existence, non-existence, and uniqueness of mass-conserving weak solutions to the continuous collision-induced nonlinear fragmentation equations are established for the collision kernels Φ satisfying Φ(x1,x2)=x1λ1 x2λ2+x2λ1 x1λ2, (x1,x2)∈(0,∞)2, with λ1 ≤ λ2≤ 1, and non-integrable fragment daughter distributions. In particular, global existence of mass-conserving weak solutions is shown when 1≤λ:=λ1+λ2≤2 with λ1≥ k0, the parameter k0∈(0,1) being related to the non-integrability of the fragment daughter distribution. The existence of at least one mass-conserving weak solution is also demonstrated when 2k0 ≤ λ< 1 with λ1≥ k0 but its maximal existence time is shown to be finite. Uniqueness is also established in both cases. The last result deals with the non-existence of mass-conserving weak solutions, even on a small time interval, for power law fragment daughter distribution when λ1
