==Applications==
PEBA is found in the [[sports equipment]] market: for [[damping]] system components and outsoles of high end shoes (running, track & field, football, baseball, basketball, trekking, etc.) where it is appreciated for its low density, damping properties, energy return and flexibility. PEBA is also appreciated by winter sports participants as it enables design of the lightest alpine and Nordic [[ski boot]]s while providing some resistance to extreme environment (low temperatures, [[Ultraviolet|UV]] exposure, moisture). It is used in various other sports applications such as racquet grommets and golf balls.
PEBA is used in medical products such as [[catheter]]s for its flexibility, its good mechanical properties at low and high temperatures, and its softness.
