摘要:
The invention relates to unique applications for the novel high melt flow, low viscosity, selectively hydrogenated styrene-butadiene-styrene (hSBS) or selectively hydrogenated controlled distribution styrene-butadiene/styrene-styrene (hSBSS) block copolymers, wherein the melt flow rate of said block copolymer is at least 100 g/10 min at 230° C. under 2.16 kg mass according to ASTM D1238. These block copolymers are novel and have the highest melt flow rate of any styrenic block copolymer also possessing high strength and elasticity. It has applications that prior to the present invention were not normally possible due to the normal low melt flow rate of styrenic block copolymers. The present invention also encompasses various fields of use such as a fiberglass hSBS or hSBSS reinforced mat, low viscosity hSBS or hSBSS coatings for industrial uses, hot melt adhesives prepared from hSBS or hSBSS blended with polyalpha-olefins, and elastic film, fiber, and nonwoven constructions using hSBS or hSBSS.
摘要:
The present invention relates to advanced flame/fire retardant compositions for fabric, upholstery, carpet, barrier, automotive, building construction, communication, and consumer electronics applications. The flame retardant composition comprises: about 5-25 wt. % hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer, about 6-40 wt. % polyolefin, about 50-80 wt. % inorganic flame retardant, about 0-5 wt. % coating, about 0-5 wt. % functionalized styrenic block copolymer, about 0-7 wt. % agri-derived heat resistant liquid, about 0.05-1.0 wt. % antioxidant, and about 0-7 wt. % optional additives such as metal deactivator, colorant, filler, and/or lubricants, wherein said composition totals 100 wt. %. An article made from the flame retardant composition, such as film, fiber, cable, and wire insulation meets various European and U.S. standards. The flame retardant compositions possess a good balance of tensile strength, elongation, flame resistance, and processability that has previously been unobtainable.

FIELD: chemistry.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the production of a rubber composition characterized by high transparency, toughness and heat resistance. Composition contains a neodymium catalyzed isoprene rubber (IR) component in an amount of from 5 to 95 mass parts and a rubber (RB) polymer component selected from the group: butadiene rubber (BR), 1,2-polybutadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), provided that the total amount of IR and RB polymers is 100 parts by weight. Composition is free from silicon dioxide and is characterized by turbidity, less than 20 % in relation to a sheet with a thickness of 2 mm, and a hardness of Durometer type A (0 sec), amounting to approximately 30 or more. Neodymium-catalyzed isoprene rubber has a cis isomer content of 95 % or more and includes approximately 10,000 ppm or less of iron or lithium.EFFECT: composition provides excellent transparency, durability and heat resistance.15 cl, 5 tbl, 9 ex
