  • Thermoplastic elastomers
    Patent number: 6300463
    Abstract: Thermoplastic elastomeric polymers which contain polyether blocks having tetramethylene ether repeat units, and polyamide blocks, have improved elastomeric properties such as higher unload power and lower tensile set, when the polyether blocks also contain 2-alkyltetramethylene ether repeat units. The polymers are useful as molding resins and for fibers.
