The present disclosure discloses a preparation method of an ultraviolet (UV)-resistant and transparent lignin-based polyurethane (PU) elastomer. During the synthesis process, natural lignin-based polyols are directly used as an end-capping agent, isophorone diisocyanate and 2,2-dimethylolbutyric acid are used as a hard segment and polyether chain polyols are used as a soft segment, to synthesize a PU elastomer with a transparent brown appearance, excellent high elasticity and elastic recovery performance, as well as excellent mechanical properties, excellent UV resistance and repeatable processability. The lignin-based PU elastomer has a simple preparation process, and has great potential values for use in the fields such as PU elastomer film, fabric coating, and elastic fiber and biomass polymer materials.
