摘要:
A thermoplastic elastomer compound is disclosed having polyether-polyamide copolymer, epoxidized soybean oil, and vulcanized vegetable oil. The compound has a biorenewable content of the compound of at least about 70 weight percent. The compound can be used to make a plastic article needing a Shore A hardness of from about 22 to about 72. The compound is a sustainable solution for extruded or molded articles.

A thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) for overmolding (OM) a nylon substrate with an overmolded layer consists essentially of an inert filler, a plasticizer, preferably a mineral oil, and chosen combinations of ingredients from the following: (i) a functionalized “high rubber” SHDS (styrene-hydrogenated diene-styrene) having a functionality of 1%, the “small end blocks” together present in an amount in the range from about 8-25% by weight; (ii) hydrogenated SDS or SHDS block copolymer having polystyrene endblocks and a polymerized vinyl aromatic monomer in the poly(conjugated diene) midblock, the polystyrene endblocks together present in an amount in the range from 20-30% by weight of the block copolymer, excluding weight of the polystyrene in the polydiene midblock; (iii) a functionalized “high rubber” SHDS having a functionality of >1% but
摘要:
This invention describes a staged process in which successive dynamic vulcanizations of plural curable rubber blend components are based on condensation reactions of a functional group (reactive site) carried by each curable rubber. The process is carried out in three stages during each of which gases evolved during the condensation reactions are removed. It is essential to form an intermediate fully dense hard blend in the second stage. This intermediate hard blend contains a relatively large amount of plastic (relative to curable rubbers) and is therefore much harder than the desired final blend. In the third stage, additional rubber and curative for uncured rubber are added to achieve the desired softness. This process, carried out in an extruder, results in fully dense pellets which are injection moulded to produce articles having essentially the same specific gravity as that of the pellets.
摘要:
A blend of thermoplastic polyester elastomer, hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer, and high styrene content styrenic block copolymer is disclosed which has good processability and more effective abrasion resistance than the blend using polystyrene in place of the high styrene content styrenic block copolymer.

摘要:
A weatherseal or belt-line seal for a vehicle is formed by extrusion of an olefin-based thermoplastic elastomer or vulcanizate (first TPV) as an elongate body of arbitrary length and cross-section. The cross-section is adapted for use in a particular location in the opening of a structure to be protected against wind and rain, for example around the glass of a window in a vehicle's door, or around the opening (at the periphery) in which the door is closed, so as to present at least one sealing surface against which the glass or door may be abutted to provide a seal against the elements. A slip-coating is co-extruded onto one or more longitudinal sealing surfaces of the body; the slip-coating contains a novel compatibilizer which allows thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) to be chemically bonded to a graft copolymer of polypropylene (PP) and a compound having two anhydride groups. The reaction product of the grafted PP and the TPU effects a thermal bond with the sealing surface of the body. The slip-coating has a combination of softness and abrasion resistance which are uniquely suited for the purpose of the weatherseal.
