Hard Segments

The mechanical properties were investigated of a series of PA-PEG thermalplastic elastomer based on PA1010 and polytetramethylene glycol (PEG) with varying hard and soft segment content. Dynamic mechanical measurements of these polymers have carried out over a wide range of temperatures. The block copolymers exhibit three peaks, designated as α, β and γ in the tanδ-temperature curve. The α transition shifts to higher temperature with increasing hard block molecular weight. However, at a constant hard molecular weight, the α transition shifts to higher temperature and the damping increases on increasing the soft segment molecular weight. DMA results show that the block copolymers exhibit a microphase separation structure and both soft and hard segments were found to be crystallizable. The degree of phase separation increases with increasing hard block molecular weight.
