This classification covered segmented block copolyether-ester elastomers suitable for molding and extrusion. This classification allowed for the use of segmented block copolyether-ester elastomers that are recycled, reconstituted, recycled-regrind, recovered, or reprocessed, or a combination thereof, provided that the requirements as stated in this classification were met.

Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D20 on Plastics, this classification was withdrawn in July 2004 and replaced by Classification System D 6835 for Thermoplastic Elastomer-Ether-Ester Molding and Extrusion Materials TEEE.
