Abstract Viscoelastic behavior of linear segmented elastomers was examined. The unusual properties found in spandex systems are also observable in hydrocarbon block co-polymers, indicating that hydrogen bonding interactions are perhaps not essential. Low temperature properties of segmented systems are governed by the structural nature of the associated flexible segments, which determines the value of the major glass transition temperature (Tg). It appears that an association of the hard segments provides a broad temperature range of enhanced rubbery modulus. This occurs between the major Tg and a secondary high temperature transition.
