Developing eco-friendly, flexible thermoplastic elastomeric foams based on poly(styrene-(ethylene-co-butylene)styrene) (SEBS) is a challenging task because of its poor melt strength.A promising approach to overcome this challenge the use synergistic technologies, such as combination irradiation, supercritical fluid foaming, and steam-chest molding technologies.Herein, foamed beads were produced from pre-crosslinked SEBS using nitrogen blowing agent, followed by subsequently efficient obtain...
Blends from the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) of Propylene/1-butene copolymers (PPB) and Ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) were successfully prepared by melt-mixed in an internal mixer crosslinking through highenergy electron beam irradiation technology.The foaming process was achieved with assistance eco-friendly supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO 2 ).The effect EPDM content on foaming, morphology, thermal, mechanical properties EPDM/PPB blends varied dose...
