摘要:
The present invention relates to a multistage process including at least two steps for making a heat and oil resistant preroxide-cured thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV) based on hydrogenated carboxlated nitrile butadiene rubber (HXNBR) and at least one polyamide. TPV's according to the present invention have improved properties and morphology over known TPV's prepared in single-stage processes.
摘要:
A continuous process for the production of a dynamically vulcanized thermoplastic elastomer comprising a thermoplastic resin and a non-halogenated elastomer with a multiolefin content of greater than 3.5 mol% that has been modified in situ with a carboxylic anhydride. The process provides materials with improved elongation at break and ultimate tensile strength that can be produced economically and with reduced environmental impact.
摘要:
An adhesive polymer comprising a maleic anhydride grafted butyl rubber and a polymer compound made from the adhesive polymer further comprising a functionalized siliceous nanoclay. The adhesive polymer and polymer compound exhibit greatly improved adhesion to certain substrate surfaces. Examples of substrate materials include stainless steel, glass, mylar or Teflon®. The greatest adhesion was observed in polymer compounds comprising maleic anhydride grafted butyl rubber produced according to a solution process and from 5 to 15 phr of a montmorillonite nanoclay. The adhesion is improved with increasing levels of nanoclay content in the compound up to a limit where filler-filler interactions occur.

摘要:
A butyl rubber ionomer having improved adhesion to substrates whose surfaces have polar functional groups. Examples of such substrate materials include stainless steel, glass, mylar or Teflon®. The adhesion of the butyl rubber ionomer to the substrate is at least 25% greater than the adhesion of a non-ionomeric butyl rubber to the same substrate surface and with certain substrates is more than 150% greater. The adhesion is improved with increasing levels of multiolefin content in the butyl rubber ionomer. The adhesion is greatest for butyl rubber ionomers having a high multiolefin content (at least 3.5 mol% of multiolefin monomers or at least 1.5 mol % of residual multiolefins). By taking advantage of these high adhesion levels, a composite article can be formed between the butyl rubber ionomer and the substrate.
