Summary
A novel equation of state for bimodal networks with extremely short chains as solid intrusions is developed proceeding from the van der Waals theory of molecular networks. Stress-strain and thermoelastic measurements on bimodal end-linked polydimethylsiloxane model networks can satisfactorily be described. The physical reasons behind that representation will be discussed.
