Polyamide elastomer, PAE

There are a few additional families of block copolymer elastomers with similar chemistry, but with minor differences. These families include polyamide elastomers (PAE) and polyether-block-amide elastomers (PEBA). [Pg.139]

Modification of Engineering Resins Specific interaction of the phosphonium ionomer from Exxpro elastomer with selected engineering resins such as Polycarbonates(PC), Polyesters(PET), Polyacrylates(PAE), Polyamides(PA), Polyphenylene Oxide(PPO), and Acetals(PAc) can be utilized to compatibilize, impact modify or nucleate the above resin in blends with similar polymers. Typical examples are ... [Pg.213]

High-performance TPE based on a polyamide (aka nylon) hard block along with a soft segment. PAEs are also known as polyether block amides or as copolyester amides or thermoplastic elastomer-amides. They are used mainly in areas where other TPE cannot compete/ perform, especially at lower temperatures. [Pg.139]
