Add to ORKGSoft thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU) are a class of block copolymers characterised by a low linear modulus (<10MPa), reversible elasticity and excellent abrasion resistance already used in several rubber‐like applications such as soles, wheels, flexible cables, etc. Yet, their fatigue behaviour under cyclic loading has not been fully investigated so far, leaving several open questions about how predicting long‐term durability of TPUs for a safe design. In this work we proposed a reproducible experimental protocol to assess and compare the resistance to crack propagation in cyclic conditions of TPU, with that of classical filled rubbers by using a fracture mechanics approach. Furthermore, we characterized the me...
