What is claimed is:
1. An impression material for use in dentistry comprising (I) the reaction product of (a) a diisocyanate or triisocyanate, (b) a dihydroxy compound selected from the group consisting of polyesters, polyethers, polythioethers, polyacetals, polycarbonates and polyester-amides having a molecular weight of from 300 to 10,000 and (c) a derivative of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid having a hydroxyl group wherein the molar ratio of compounds (a), (b) and (c) is 2:1:2, and (II) an inert dental carrier, said impression material having a hardening time of about 4-5 minutes.
2. A material according to claim 1 wherein the isocyanate (a) is a diisocyanate.
3. A material according to claim 2 wherein the diisocyanate (a) is hexamethylene-diisocyanate, toluylene-diisocyanate, isophorone-diisocyanate or diphenylmethane-4,4'-diisocyanate.
4. A material according to claim 2 wherein the dihydroxy compound (b) has a molecular weight of from 1,000 to 8,000.
5. A process for preparing an impression material according to claim 1 which comprises mixing the dihydroxy compound (b) with the monohydroxy compound (c), then reacting the mixture with the diisocyanate (a).
6. A process for preparing an impression material according to claim 1 which comprises reacting equimolar amounts of compounds (a) and (c), then reacting the reaction product with compound (b).
7. A process according to claim 5 wherein a polymerization inhibitor is present to prevent premature gelling.
8. A process according to claim 6 wherein a polymerization inhibitor is present to prevent premature gelling.
9. An impression material according to claim 1 additionally containing a hardening catalyst.
10. A material according to claim 1 wherein the dihydroxy compound (b) has a molecular weight of from 2,000 to 4,000.
11. A material according to claim 2 wherein the dihydroxy compound (b) has a molecular weight of from 2,000 to 4,000.
