Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data showed that the melting temperature(Tm) decreased with the amide content increased. The glass transition temperature (Tg) was increased as introducingthe amide group, and the formation of amide-ester and amide-amide hydrogen bonds increased the intermolecularchain force. The intrinsic viscosity (η) showed the tendency of increment from TPEE (0.53 dL g^(−1)) to TPEaE-5%(0.72 dL g^(−1)) due to the reinforcement of hydrogen bond and chain entanglement.展开更多
