Abstract

The influence of diacetylene polymerization within the hard domains on the hysteresis behavior of segmented copolymers with different hard-segment-structures and different levels of phase separation and hard-domain ordering is studied. For elastomers with weakly associated hard segments, it is found that low levels of crosslinking signifcantly reduce the amount of hysteresis that they exhibit at low strains. For elastomers with crystalline hard domains and highly interlocked microstructures, crosslinking increases the level of hysteresis regardless of the level of crosslinking
