A thermoplastic polyurethane can be obtained by a process involving a reaction of a thermoplastic polyester (PE-1) with a diamine (D1), to obtain a composition (Z1) containing an amide (PA-1), and a reaction of the obtained composition (Z1) with an isocyanate composition (I1), containing at least one polyisocyanate, and a polyol composition (P1). The diamine (D1) has a molecular weight in the range from 50 g/mol to 700 g/mol. A process can produce such a thermoplastic polyurethane, and shaped articles can be made containing the thermoplastic polyurethane.

Hard-phase-modified thermoplastic polyurethane

The present invention relates to thermoplastic polyurethanes obtainable or obtained by reaction of at least one aliphatic polyisocyanate; at least one chain extender; and at least one polyol composition, where the polyol composition comprises a polyol selected from the group consisting of polyetherols and at least one bisphenol derivative selected from the group consisting of bisphenol A derivatives with a molecular weight Mw&#x3e;315 g/mol and bisphenol S derivatives with a molecular weight Mw&#x3e;315 g/mol, where at least one of the OH groups of the bisphenol derivative is alkoxylated, and to processes for producing such thermoplastic polyurethanes and to the use of a thermoplastic polyurethane according to the invention for producing extrusion products, films and moldings.

Methods for producing transparent, thermoplastic polyurethane having high mechanical strength and hardness

The present invention relates to a process for producing a molding (FK), comprising the production of a thermoplastic polyurethane, comprising the reaction of at least one polyisocyanate composition, at least one chain extender, and at least one polyol composition, the production of a molding (FK*) from the thermoplastic polyurethane, the heating of the molding (FK*) to a temperature below the temperature at which the molding (FK*) is permanently deformable, and above the switching temperature of the thermoplastic polyurethane, the compressing of the heated molding (FK*) to give a molding (FK), and the cooling of the molding (FK) to a temperature below the switching temperature of the thermoplastic polyurethane, and also to the moldings obtainable or obtained by such a process.
