Fully-renewable and degradable thermoplastic elastomers.
The most common polymers derived from renewable feedstocks, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), polyglycolide, and polylactide (PLA), have high stiffness and tensile strength, but are inherently brittle, thus limiting the potential for these polymers to replace elastic and ductile polymers derived from fossil …

Development of Sustainable Thermoplastic Elastomers
… acrylate)-b-styrene) (SAS) triblock copolymers containing a rubbery midblock derived from fatty acids were designed with targeted properties appropriate for thermoplastic elastomer applications. Well-defined polymers with desired compositions and controlled molecular weight …
