Abstract: An artificial turf contains a damping layer made of a particle foam, a fiber backing, and an artificial grass layer made of single or multiple fibers. The fibers are tied to the fiber backing, forming an artificial carpet of grass. The particle foam and the single or multiple fibers forming the artificial grass layer are each made of a thermoplastic elastomer.
