Abstract
ABA block copolymers have been synthesized in which the center block was polyisoprene or polybutadiene and the end blocks were polyethylene sulfide or polythiabutane. The latter were shown to crystallize, leading to mechanical properties analogous to those of the “thermoplastic elastomers.”Keywords
