Abstract
The processing temperature of linear thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers prepared from a polycarbonate polyol, a polyether polyol, an extender and a disocyanate compound which has been modified by reaction with a low molecular weight diol to form a modified diisocyanate compound prior to reaction with the other components of the elastomer, can be reduced by adding a millable thermoplastic linear polyurethane elastomer thereto. These materials possess an optimum combination of hydrolytic stability, toughness, flexibiity and low temperature processing characteristics.
