  • Patent number: 5695884
    Abstract: A thermoplastic polyurethane composition of the present invention includes a thermoplastic polyurethane obtained by reacting at least the following components A, B, and C: (A) a polyester polyol having a number average age molecular weight of 500 to 5000, containing an acid component including aromatic dicarboxylic acid and aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, the molar ratio of the aromatic dicarboxylic acid to the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid being 5:95 to 90:10; (B) a low molecular weight diol having a molecular weight of less than 500; and (C) an organic diisocyanate, wherein the thermoplastic polyurethane has a metal sulfonate group of 10 to 1000 equivalents/10.sup.6 g of the polyurethane and a urethane group of 1200 to 3000 equivalents/10.sup.6 g of the polyurethane.

  • Patent number: 4442262
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a composition of a polyester-block copolymer, comprising 5 to 80% by weight of at least one kind of graft-copolymer obtained by graft-copolymerizing 50 to 25 parts by weight of a monomeric mixture predominantly consisting essentially of styrene and methyl methacrylate and containing 0.01 to 3.0% by weight of a cross-linking agent with 50 to 75 parts by weight of a cross-linked elastomeric trunk polymer containing not less than 50% by weight of rubber like segment selected from the group consisting of butadiene unit and C.sub.4 to C.sub.10 -alkyl acrylate units, and 0.01 to 3.0% by weight of a cross-linking agent, and 95 to 20% by weight of a polyester-block copolymer, the composition giving shaped articles of favorable superficial appearance even when processed by shape-forming under conditions of mixing and kneading of a relatively low degree.
