Filler particles were evenly distributed in the hard and soft phase.
A PA1012 (soft phase)/PA612 (hard phase) blend was selected for this study.
However, the 4GI-b-PO4-b-PA12 4GI-b-PO4-b-PA12 4GI-b-PO4-b-PA12 4GI-b-PO4-b-PA12 4GI-b-PO4-b-PA12
In both series, molar mass of the soft phase was gradually reduced by isooctyl 3-mercaptopropionate included in the synthesis.
The incorporation of a soft phase in the TiN matrix did not lead to a decrease in hardness.
This is contrary to increased hard segment mixing in the soft phase, but can be rationalized by taking into consideration soft segment crystallinity and the concentration of 'lone' MDI units in the soft phase.

Moreover, when the blend was deformed close to or above its glass transition temperature (Tg), the simultaneous occurrence of fracture reinforcement and toughness was achieved, which was defined as "soft phase-reinforcing-hard phase" (SRH).
On the other hand, below Tg, a "hard phase-reinforcing-soft phase" (HRS) mechanical behavior was identified at the expense of elongation at break.
This morphology evolution leads, to some extent, to a weakening of the mechanical properties as observed above the glass transition temperature of the soft-phase matrix.
Our simulation protocol allows observation of upwards of 90% strain recovery in some cases, at time-scales that are on the order of the timescale of the relevant relaxation mechanism (stress relaxation in the unentangled soft-phase).
Thermoplastic polyurethanes made using polybutylene succinate exhibited higher glass transition temperatures and more hard-phase to soft-phase interaction than those with polybutylene adipate, presumably due to the higher number of hydrogen bond accepting carbonyls on the succinate soft segment chain.
