The Effect of Process Parameters on the Synthesis of Thermoplastic Polyurethane Elastomer Through Reactive Melt Blending [PDF]
Hypothesis: Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers are generally synthesized by one of the methods of one-shot, pre-polymer and semi pre-polymer. In the preparation of polyurethanes by these methods the viscosity is increased as the reaction progresses ...
