A thermoplastic elastomer which is ideally suited for use in the fabrication of premium grade hose and other uses because of its smooth, soft and rubbery feel under widely varying temperature conditions, coupled with its exceptionally low compression set and good flexibility.

Thermoplastic elastomer blend of EPDM, polyethylene, and a C.sub.3 -C.sub.1

A thermoplastic elastomer formed by an EPDM interpolymer, an uncross-linked polyethylene and an uncross-linked polymer of a monoolefin containing 3 to 16 carbon atoms and preferably polypropylene and in which the polyethylene component is present in an amount of at least 4% and preferably 5-15% by weight of the combined weight of the polymeric material and which are simultaneously subjected to hot working and a free radical reaction.
