The present invention relates to a process for the production of polyurethane urea elastomers from (a) NCO-terminated prepolymers based on polyisocyanates and polyethers having a molecular weight of 400 to about 10,000 and an ethylene oxide content of about 10 to 60 mole-% and (b) solid diaminodiphenyl ureas corresponding to the formula wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 may be the same or different and represent hydrogen or C1-C6 alkyl radicals and wherein the amino groups are in the m-and/or p-position to the urea group, characterized in that the NCO prepolymers are reacted with the diaminodiphenyl ureas in powder-form in a heterogeneous phase at temperatures of about 5 DEG to 40 DEG C. The present invention is also directed to the polyurethane urea elastomers prepared by this process.
