Building Ultrastrong, Tough and Biodegradable Thermoplastic Elastomers from Multiblock Copolyesters via a "Reserve-Release" Crystallization Strategy.
Simultaneously attaining high strength and toughness has been a significant challenge in designing thermoplastic elastomers, especially biodegradable ones. In this context, we present a class of biodegradable elastomers based on multiblock copolyesters that afford extraordinary strength, toughness, and low-strain resilience despite expedient chemical synthesis and sample processing. With the incorporation of the semi-crystalline soft block and the judicious selection of block periodicity, the thermoplastic materials feature low quiescent crystallinity ("reserve") albeit with vast potential for strain-induced crystallization ("release"), resulting in their significantly enhanced ultimate strength and energy-dissipating capabilities. Moreover, a breadth of mechanical responses of the materials - from reinforced elastomers to shape-memory materials to toughened thermoplastics - can be achieved by orthogonal variation of segment lengths and ratios. This work and the "reserve-release" crystallization strategy herein highlight the double crystalline multiblock chain architecture as a potential avenue towards reconciling the strength-toughness trade-off in thermoplastic elastomers and can possibly be extended to other biodegradable building blocks to deliver functional materials with diverse mechanical performances.
