Abstract

A process for the production of micro-cellular or non-cellular, light-stable elastomeric, flexible or semi-flexible polyurethane moldings which are especially suited for window encapsulation applications from a reaction mixture by the reaction injection molding process, wherein: A) an isocyanate component containing an isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) trimer/monomer mixture having an NCO content of from 24.5 to 34% by weight, is reacted with B) isocyanate-reactive components comprising: b1) a polyetherpolyol having terminal OH groups, an average nominal functionality of 2 to 4, and an average equivalent weight of from 800 to 4000; b2) at least one chain extender component having as functional groups only aliphatic or alicyclic OH groups; b3) at least one amine-initiator component; in the presence of C) at least one catalyst component selected from the group consisting of organolead (II), organobismuth (III), and organotin (IV) catalysts; D) at least one pigment component, and E) at least one antioxidant/UV absorber component.
