Abstract: This invention pertains to the synthesis of polyurethane systems having low hysteresis. The systems are generated by reacting a prepolymer of a mononuclear diisocyanate and a polyol with a chain extender mix of a mononuclear aromatic diamine and a polyol. The prepolymer should have a free isocyanate content of from 2 to about 12% by weight and the chain extender mix should have an amine to polyol equivalent from about 0.5 to 5:1.
