Process for the production of polyurethane-and/or polyurea-based moldings

The present invention is directed to a process for the production of light-resistant, optionally foamed elastomeric molded polyurethanes by reacting

Process for the production of molded polyurethane parts

Molded polyurea foam parts having densities of from 200 to 600 kg/m.sup.3 and a compact skin are made by reacting a polyisocyanate component with a polyamine component in a closed mold at an isocyanate index of from 70 to 130. The polyamine component generally includes (1) an aminopolyether having a molecular weight of from 1800 to 12,000 and 2 to 3 isocyanate reactive groups of which at least 90% are aromatically bound primary and/or secondary amino groups, (2) an aromatic diamine, (3) a foaming agent and optionally (4) known auxiliaries and additives. The polyisocyanate component includes any aromatic di- and/or poly-isocyanate. Parts produced by this process have excellent mechanical properties and a well-defined solid skin.
