Abstract
Abstract Urethane elastomers are prepared by reacting a long-chain polyol having a molecular weight of 400 - 5000 in a one-shot operation with an organic diisocyanate and a halogenated aromatic diamine of the general formula: <IMAGE> wherein X1, X2, X3 and X4 are the same or different and each represents a halogen atom and n is zero or 1. According to this process, urethane elastomers possessing excellent physical characteristics can be produced economically and advantageously in the operations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
80 words
A one-shot process for the production of solid urethane elastomers, characterized by reacting simultaneously a water-free mixture consisting essentially of a long-chain polyol having a molecular weight of 400-5000, an organic diisocyanate and at least one halogenated aromatic diamine ##STR11## selected from the group consisting of 3,3',5,5'-tetrachlorobenzidine, 2,2',5,5'-tetrachlorobenzidine, 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,5-dichloroaniline) 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,3-dichloroaniline), and 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,6-dichloroaniline), said diamine being preliminarily dissolved in said polyol without reacting the same and said diisocyanate and then being added to the resultant mixture to effect said simultaneous reaction.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
80 words
A one-shot process for the production of solid urethane elastomers, characterized by reacting simultaneously a water-free mixture consisting essentially of a long-chain polyol having a molecular weight of 400-5000, an organic diisocyanate and at least one halogenated aromatic diamine ##STR11## selected from the group consisting of 3,3',5,5'-tetrachlorobenzidine, 2,2',5,5'-tetrachlorobenzidine, 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,5-dichloroaniline) 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,3-dichloroaniline), and 4,4'-methylene-bis(2,6-dichloroaniline), said diamine being preliminarily dissolved in said polyol without reacting the same and said diisocyanate and then being added to the resultant mixture to effect said simultaneous reaction.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
103 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said long-chain polyol is at least one of a polyester glycol, a polyalkylene ether glycol, polybutadine having terminal hydroxyl groups, a copolymerizate of at least two alkylene oxides, a copolymerizate of at least two glycols with a dicarboxylic acid, a diol such as a mixture of aromatic glycols, a polyester polyol having 2-4 hydroxyl groups per molecule obtained by cocondensing a polyol and an aliphatic glycol with a dicarboxylic acid, and a polyether polyol having 2-4 hydroxyl groups per molecule obtained by decyclizing polymerization of a cyclic ether in the presence of a polyol as initiator.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said aromatic diisocyanate is 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate, 2,6-tolylene diisocyanate, a dimer of 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate, m-phenylene diisocyanate, 4,4'-biphenyl diisocyanate, 3,3'-ditoluene-4,4'-diisocyanate, dianisidine diisocyanate, 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 3,3'-dimethyl-4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate or a combination thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
40 words

Claim 6
Dependent Claim
63 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out in the presence of at least one catalyst selected from the group consisting of inorganic tin compounds, organic tin compounds, tertiary amines, cyclic amidines and quaternary ammonium salts thereof, cobalt naphthenate, sodium o-phenylphenate, bismuth nitrate, potassium oleate, tetra (2-ethylhexyl) titanate, cobalt 2-ethylhexoate, ferric chloride, ferric 2-ethylhexoate, zinc naphthenate and antimony trichloride.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
35 words
