Cross-linked Polymers and Rubber Elasticity

An elastomer is defined as a cross-linked amorphous polymer above its glass transition temperature. Elastomers may be stretched substantially reversibly to several hundred percent. While most of this chapter explores the behavior of elastomers, the study of cross-linking is more general. If the cross-linked polymer is glassy, it is often called a thermoset. Below, the terms elastomer and rubber are often used interchangably. [Pg.427]
