Characterization of hard-segment crystalline phase of thermoplastic polyurethane in the presence of butane and glycerol monosterate and its impact on mechanical property and microcellular morphology

The effects of glycerol monosterate (GMS) and high-pressure butane on the phase-separation and crystallization of the hard segment (HS) of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) were investigated. Small and wide angle x-ray diffraction, polarized optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy were used to...
