The growth of the science and technology of plastics leads to the development of new materials with more desirable properties. Such kinds of materials include polyurethanes with isocyanurate structural units combining the properties of great strength and high temperature stability. Most of them are produced as rigid foams designed as insulation materials for industrial applications. However, great progress has been made with the introduction of isocyanurate rings in the non‐cellular areas, especially in elastomers. The aim of this work is to present an overview of the major developments on the field of poly(urethane‐isocyanurate) elastomers. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
