    Abstract: Mouldings are prepared from elastomers containing urethane groups and/or urea and/or semicarbazide groups. The elastomers are prepared by reacting a polyester having at least two hydroxyl groups prepared from adipic acid and a mixture of 45-90% by wt. 1,6-hexanediol and 10-55% by wt. 2,2-dimethyl, 1,3-hexanediol, first with a polyisocyanate and then with a chain extender. The process may be carried out in the presence of an unreactive polar solvent. Up to 10% by wt. of the adipic acid may be replaced by other dicarboxylic acids, e.g. sebacic, pimelic, suberic or isophthalic acids.

    Abstract: An improved process for the continuous manufacture of polyamides by continuously conveying the aqueous solution of a salt of essentially equivalent amounts of a diamine, or of a mixture of several diamines, and of a dicarboxylic acid, or of a mixture of several dicarboxylic acids, or of mixtures of such salts with lactams and/or aminocarboxylic acids, through several reaction zones under polyamide-forming conditions, wherein the mixture of starting materials is heated, in a first reaction zone, to from 200 DEG to 300 DEG C, preferably from 220 DEG to 280 DEG C, at pressures which are above the corresponding saturation vapor pressure of water and prevent the formation of a vapor phase, the pressure action on the polycondensation mixture is released in a second reaction zone and condensation of the mixture, to form high molecular weight polyamides, is then completed in further reaction stages. According to the invention, A. THE MIXTURE OF STARTING MATERIALS IS HEATED, IN THE FIRST REACTION ZONE, UNTIL THE POLYCONDENSATION CONVERSION IS AT LEAST 80% AND PREFERABLY 90%, B. IN THE SECOND ZONE THE PRESSURE ACTING ON THE POLYCONDENSATION MIXTURE IS RELEASED, ADIABATICALLY, TO LEVELS OF NOT LESS THAN 3 ATMOSPHERES, PREFERABLY NOT LESS THAN 5 ATMOSPHERES, AND NOT MORE THAN 20 ATMOSPHERES, PREFERABLY NOT MORE THAN 15 ATMOSPHERES, SO AS TO REACH TEMPERATURES BELOW 215 DEG C, preferably 210 DEG C, c. the polycondensation mixture is then heated in a third reaction zone, comprising a heat exchanger consisting of heat exchange elements connected in parallel, to from 220 DEG to 330 DEG C, preferably from 250 DEG to 300 DEG C, in the course of less than 5 minutes and preferably less than 1 minute, the heating being carried out preferably in the presence of the water vapor formed during the adiabatic release of the pressure (in stage b), with application of heat and evaporation of the bulk of the water, at the pressure level to which the pressure has previously been released or at a lower pressure, and D. IN FURTHER REACTION STAGES, THE CONDENSATION IS COMPLETED, UNDER THE CONDITIONS PREVAILING AT THE END OF THE THIRD REACTION ZONE AND, FINALLY, BY CONVENTIONAL METHODS, TO FORM HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYAMIDES.
