Latest Trends in the Development of Thermoplastic Elastomers

In the review, recent developments are discussed on thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) on the basis of (multi)block copolymers, including TPE derived from triazinedithiols, TPE prepared by the technique of simultaneously interpenetrating networks, and polymer blends including TPE prepared by the co-coagulation of polychloroprene latex and poly(vinyl chloride) emulsion, blends of copolyester TPE with poly(vinyl chloride), and thermoplastic vulcanizates.
