Abstract
A cross-linked, melt-flowable thermoplastic elastomer blend of a monoolefin polymer rubber and cross-linkable low density polyethylene which are essentially fully cured in the presence of polypropylene is disclosed. The reprocessable blend has a much improved melt rheology and is useful for making flexible molded or extruded articles having an extremely good balance of mechanical properties, particularly high resiliency, tensile strength, flexural modulus, heat distortion resistance, low permanent set, and the like, without requiring vulcanization.
