Abstract

Flexible automobile exterior body parts are molded from a polyurethane elastomer prepared from a reaction mixture comprising: PA1 A. a poly(oxypropylene)-poly(oxyethylene) glycol of molecular weight of from about 1500 to about 4000 containing 15 to 50% by weight oxyethylene groups; PA1 B. a "graft" polyol of molecular weight from about 2500 to about 4500, prepared by the in situ polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in a poly(oxypropylene) and/or poly(oxypropylene)-poly(oxyethylene) glycol containing less than 15% by weight oxyethylene groups; PA1 C. methylenebis(4-phenylisocyanate); PA1 D. 1,4-butanediol. The invention also relates to this polyurethane elastomer.
