Abstract: The thermoplastic polyester-polyurethane elastomers were synthesized from polyhexamethylene carbonate, polytetramethylene adipate, diphenyl methane-4,4′disocyanate and 1,4-butylene-glycol. Their glass transition temperature, mechanical property, hydrolytic stability and rheological property have been studied. The results show that the Tg, and the apparent viscosity of tlie polymer melt decreased vVith the increase of the polycarbonate content.The processability and hydrolytic stability of the elastomer were improved.

Key words: polycarbonate, polyester, polyurethane, thermoplastic elastomer, mechanicalproperty, hydrolytic stability
