Abstract
The chemical structure of polyurethane modified by BHET is correlated with its mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties. Evaluation of this amorphous elastomer by means of stressβstrain tests and transition temperature measurements reveals that incorporation of the BHET structure into the soft polyester segment affects the domain structure and, in turn, the entire mechanical behavior of polyurethane. It is also shown that polyurethane has a wide range of T~g~ and secondary transition temperature by varying the ratio of BHET to EG as well as the ratio of TDI to polyester polyol.

## Abstract Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPUs) are prepared including different amounts of rosin in their composition. Rosin is used either as an additive, mixed in the TPU solutions, or as a reactant in the chainβextension step of polymer synthesis. The properties of the materials are st
