Abstract

The processing temperatures of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers are reduced, and the extrudability and sensitivity to shear and moisture are improved, by employing as the diisocyanate, in the preparation of said elastomers, the product obtained by reacting 4,4'-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate) with a monohydric aliphatic alcohol. Use of the latter also counteracts batch-to-batch variations in reactivity of 4,4'-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate).
