This research demonstrates the development of thermoplastic elastomers with enhanced damping properties, indicating potential for industrial applications.
Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) combine the properties of plastics and rubbers. With new varieties continuously emerging, the TPE industry has experienced rapid development and gained increasing commercial significance. In this work, PP-based thermoplastic elastomers were prepared by blending five non-polar rubber components (BR, SBR, NR, IR, HVBR) with the polypropylene matrix. The damping properties of the resulting materials were systematically investigated, demonstrating the feasibility of developing novel thermoplastic damping materials using PP as the matrix.
