Line 4: :[[Hydrogen\|H]][[Oxygen\|O]] - ([[Carbon\|C]][[Oxygen\|O]] - '''[[Polyamide\|PA]]''' - [[Carbon\|C]][[Oxygen\|O]] - [[Oxygen\|O]] - '''[[Polyether\|PE]]''' - [[Oxygen\|O]])<sub>n</sub> - [[Hydrogen\|H]] PEBA is a high performance thermoplastic elastomer. It is used to replace common elastomers – thermoplastic polyurethanes, polyester elastomers, and silicons - for these characteristics: lower density among TPE, superior mechanical and dynamic properties (flexibility, [[Brittleness\|impact resistance]], [[Elasticity\|energy return]], [[Fatigue (material)\|fatigue resistance]]) and keeping these properties at low temperature (lower than -40 °[[Celsius\|C]]), and good resistance against a wide range of chemicals. It is sensitive to [[UV degradation]], however. ==Applications==
