Publication number: 20030158365Abstract: A continuous process for the preparation of a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer is disclosed. The process is carried out at 130 to 250° C. and comprises reacting at least one polyether diol with at least one organic diisocyanate and 1,4-di-(2,2′-hydroxyethyl)-hydroquinone, in the presence of tin dioctoate as a catalyst. The resulting thermoplastic polyurethane has a glass transition temperature (Tg) below 50° C. The inventive thermoplastic polyurethane is suitable for making injection molded or extruded articles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2002Publication date: August 21, 2003Inventors: Wolfgang Brauer, Herbert Heidingsfeld, Hans-Georg Hoppe, Wolfgang Kaufhold, Bernhard Schulte, Jack C.

Patent number: 6559266Abstract: A molding composition comprising thermoplastic polyurethane is disclosed. The polyurethane is characterized in having ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and elongation at break (EAB) values after hot storage which are, each, at least 60% of the corresponding value before hot storage, glass transition temperature equal to or lower than −50° C., UTS and EAB values after hydrolytic storage which are, each, at least 80% of the corresponding value before hydrolytic storage, and Shore A hardness of 70 to 95. The polyurethane is a product of a reaction comprising an aliphatic diisocyanate, a mixture of polyols and a chain extender and contains a UV stabilizer, an antioxidant and an optional anti-hydrolysis agent.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 1999Date of Patent: May 6, 2003Assignees: Bayer Corporation, Bayer AktiengesellschaftInventors: Wolfgang Kaufhold, Wolfgang Braeuer, Hans-Georg Wussow, Hans-Georg Hoppe, Steven C.
