Souffie, R D

This article touches on the chemistry of manufacture and structure of thermoplastic elastomers. The physical properties and environmental resistance characteristics of these copolymers are related to their molecular makeup. Results indicate that segmented polyether esters, because of their basic chemical structure, are resistant to a wide range of oils, solvents and chemicals. They are also highly elastic, resilient polymers which can be both cost and performance effective when used in a number of industrial applications.
