Abstract: A linear polymer containing isocyanate groups and having an NCO content in the range from 0.3% to 1.5% by weight and a monomeric diisocyanate content of not more than 0.5% by weight, wherein it is obtained from the reaction of at least one monomeric aromatic diisocyanate and a polyether diol having an OH number in the range from 5 to 21 mg KOH/g in an NCO/OH ratio of at least 5/1 and subsequent removal of a majority of the monomeric aromatic diisocyanate by means of a suitable separation method, and to moisture-curing polyurethane compositions having a monomeric diisocyanate content of less than 0.1% by weight, comprising said polymer. The polymer of the invention enables elastic adhesives having high elongation, surprisingly high strength and surprisingly good adhesion to plastic substrates.
