Abstract

High molecular weight thermoplastic polyurethane resins with narrow molecular weight distribution and good physical properties are prepared by regenerating thermally degraded and/or off-grade thermoplastic polyurethane resins. The regenerated high molecular weight thermoplastic polyurethane resins do not present any processing difficulties inherent to high molecular weight resins.
