…methods, a refractometer, or a viscometer to determine the concentration of the eluted copolymer. A common application of block copolymers is to develop thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs). Early commercial TPEs were developed from polyurethranes (TPUs), consisting of alternating soft segments and hard segments, and are used in…
