Strength Enhancement through A Polymer Network for the Blends of Thermoplastic Polyurethane and Ethylene-propylene-diene Elastomer

摘要

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is one of the most versatile engineering thermoplastics with elastomeric properties 1, 2. It is well known that TPU elastomers are linear multi-block copolymer containing soft and hard segments. The hard segments are based on diisocyanates and a low-molecular weight diol and/or diamine.
