Abstract
A process for forming a cross-linked thermoplastic elastomer is disclosed herein. The cross-linked thermoplastic elastomer is a thermoplastic cross-linked copolyester and is preferably formed by heating a first mixture containing a thermoplastic elastomeric base material, a monomeric diisocyanate comprising between 1 to 10% of the total weight of the first mixture, and a second mixture of a first diamine and a second diamine comprising between 1 to 10% of the total weight of a total reaction product. The heated first mixture, which is flowable, is injected into at least one injection molding device, with the second mixture injected at predetermined intervals to create a homogeneous reaction product. The reaction product may be injected into a mold to produce articles.
