Strain softening of nano-scale fuzzy interfaces causes Mullins effect in thermoplastic polyurethane
Abstract The strain-induced softening of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPUs), known as the Mullins effect, arises from their multi-phase structure. We used the combination of small- and wide- angle X-ray scattering (SAXS/WAXS) during in situ repeated tensile loading to elucidate the relatio...
