Abstract
The present invention relates to a crosslinked elastomer with thermoplastic conversion and to a process for its manufacture. The elastomer with thermoplastic conversion is characterized in that it includes at least one polyoctene and a grafted polyolefin. The invention has numerous industrial applications, especially in the manufacture of insulating and/or leakproofing gaskets and packings as employed for thermal and sound insulation and/or leakproofing against water and moisture, as well as of conduits, tubes, pipes, tubings, couplings and the like for the transfer of fluids.
