Foamed articles having enhanced tensile, elastic recovery, and creep and fatigue resistance properties are prepared using a dual cure system. This system comprises a heat or radiation-activated first stage cure (which follows or coincides with foaming) followed by a moisture-activated second stage cure. Heat-activated curing systems include peroxide, sulfur, etc., and radiation-activated cure systems include electron beam, gamma-ray, etc. Moisture-activated systems include silane, sulfonyl chloride, and the like.
