Abstract: Polyamide-6-block-polybutadiene copolymers have been prepared by the anionic polymerization of ɛ-caprolactam in presence of α,ω-dihydroxy terminated polybutadiene. TG, Hi-Res™ TGA, DSC, TMDSC and DMA techniques have been applied. The suitability of the methods used to determine the content, thermal stabilities and glass transition temperatures of the components constituting the block copolymer is discussed.
