Triblock polyester thermoplastic elastomers with semi-aromatic polymer end blocks by ring-opening copolymerization

Thermoplastic elastomers benefit from high elasticity and straightforward (re)processability; they are widely used across a multitude of sectors. Currently, the majority derive from oil, do not degrade or undergo chemical recycling. Here a new series of ABA triblock polyesters are synthesized and sh...
