Abstract

Polyester-polysiloxane block copolymers for dental uses are disclosed as low modulus thermoplastic elastomers. The copolymers comprise polycaprolactone residues and poly(dimethylsiloxane) .alpha.,.omega.-diol residues which are linked by ether bonds. The compounds exhibit the property of plasticity by heating and the property of original rubber elasticity by cooling again to room temperature.
