Process of making molded products

A process for the preparation of a single-layered or multilayered molded article comprising shaping a mixture under conditions of heat and pressure, said mixture comprising:

• i) quasi-thermoplastic particles of a polyisocyanate-polyaddition product prepared by reacting, in a single stage or multistage process at an isocyanate index of from about 60 to about 140,
• (a) an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, or aromatic polyisocyanate;
• (b) a compound having a molecular weight of from 1800 to 12,000, and containing on statistical average at least 2.4 isocyanate-reactive groups;
• (c) at least 5% by weight, based upon the weight of component (b), of a compound selected from the group consisting of:
• (1) diamines having molecular weights of from 108 to 400 and having primary aromatically bound amino groups and/or secondary aromatically bound amino groups, and
• (2) non-aromatic compounds having molecular weights of from 60 to 1799 and containing at least two isocyanate-reactive groups,
• with the proviso that the amounts and types of components (b) and (c) are such that the molar ratio of urea groups to urethane groups in said polyisocyanate-polyaddition product is at least 2:1, and
• (ii) one or more processing auxiliaries selected from the group consisting of solvents that swell the surface of said polyisocyanate-poly-addition product, compounds that undergo an addition or condensation reaction with said polyisocyanate-polyaddition product, radical formers, and thermoplastic materials that can be processed under the conditions of the process.
