Abstract

A rigid thermoplastic polyurethane with improved melt strength can be prepared by deactivating the catalyst for the polymer subsequent to the onset of urethane bond formation. Catalyst deactivation is accomplished either with a latent deactivator for the catalyst, or an active deactivator. The further addition of a crosslinker to the reaction mixture can provide an even greater improvement of melt strength.
