Abstract

Abstract A poly(oxyethylene-oxypropylene)glycol and poly(tetramethylene ether)glycol are blended together and the resulting blend and a chain extender are reacted with an organic diisocyanate under conditions which produce a thermoplastically processible polyurethane elastomer. The polyurethane elastomer can be used to advantage for making the sheath of a hydraulic hose.
