Abstract
A series of PDMS-containing elastomers was synthesised from MDI, 1,4-butanediol and PDMS by a one-step procedure and the thermal degradation behaviour and tensile properties of the elastomers investigated. Nanostructured fibre mats were electrospun from the PDMS-containing elastomers by electrospinning and the effects of solution concentration and voltage on the morphology of the fibre mats studied by scanning electron microscopy. 27 refs.
