  • Patent number: 5936018
    Abstract: A thermoplastic molding composition comprising a thermoplastic polyurethane and a wax mixture is disclosed. The polyurethane is a product of an organic diisocyanate, a linear, hydroxyl-terminated polyol and a diol or diamine chain extender. The wax mixture contains a first mixture of an ester of a C.sub.10-45 aliphatic carboxylic acid and a diol, and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt of a C.sub.10-45 aliphatic carboxylic acids, and at least one member selected from the group consisting of fatty acid ester, fatty acid amide, fatty acid ester amide and polyethylene wax.

  • Patent number: 5795948
    Abstract: Thermoplastically processable polyurethane elastomers are produced by a process ofA) mixing one or more substantially linear macrodiols with a diisocyanate,B) reacting the resultant mixture in a reactor at temperatures of >100.degree. C. to form a prepolymer,C) mixing the prepolymer with one or more low molecular weight chain extenders, andD) reacting the mixture prepared in stage C) to complete conversion in a high-shear, high-viscosity reactor.

  • Patent number: 5696205
    Abstract: A process for the continuous production of a thermoplastic molding composition containing a mixture of TPU and a (co)polymer is disclosed. The process comprises(a) introducing into an extruder under time and temperature conditions sufficient to bring about the formation of thermoplastic polyurethane a (co)polymer, and polyurethane-forming components comprising A) an organic diisocyanate, B) a linear polyol having terminal hydroxyl groups and a molecular weight of 500 to 5000, and C) a chain extender having a molecular weight of 60 to 500, and upon completing the formation of said polyurethane(b) discharging the resulting TPU/(co)polymer mixture from the extruder. Importantly, the (co)polymer contains a flow enhancer and the molar ratio of the NCO groups in A) to the groups which react with NCO in B) and C) is 0.9 to 1.2.

  • Patent number: 5545707
    Abstract: Thermoplastically processable polyurethane elastomers are prepared by A) mixing one or more substantially linear polyols with a diisocyanate, B) reacting the resultant mixture substantially completely in a reactor at temperatures of >100.degree. C. to form a prepolymer, C) mixing the prepolymer with low molecular weight chain extenders, D) applying the reaction mixture prepared in stage C) to a support and allowing the mixture to react thereon to solidification.
