Octavinyl-POSS as a Modifier of Thermoplastic Polyolefin Elastomers Based on Ethylene-Propylene-Diene and Ethylene-1-Octene EPDM/POEs Blends
Thermoplastic polyolefin elastomers (TPOs) were developed from ethylene-propylene-diene (EPDM) rubber and ethylene-1-octene copolymers (POEs) differing in melt viscosity and crystallinity. EPDM/POE blends were prepared at a fixed composition by a melt-mixing process readily applicable to industrial manufacturing. To en...
