Abstract

This invention relates to a solvent-free process for producing polyurethane/urea elastomers wherein an aromatic diisocyanate is reacted with a compound having active Zerewitinoff hydrogen atoms and an aromatic diamine chain extender. The improvement for producing urethanes having a wide range of properties comprises including a urethane-linked diisocyanate in the polyurethane urea elastomer. The urethane-linked diisocyanate is one that is formed by reacting toluenediisocyanate or substituent thereof with a short chain diol under conditions such that the urethane linked diisocyanate comprises two equivalents isocyanate per equivalent diol.
