Abstract:
Pourable, discrete, finely-divided, tack-free elastomer particles, preferably containing filler, are prepared from an aqueous elastomer emulsion comprising an elastomer dissolved in a volatile inert organic solvent having an emulsifying amount of an alkylamine or alkenylamine oxyalkylate surfactant and an aqueous suspension of a filler, which process comprises gradually adding the filler-containing aqueous elastomer emulsion into a hot aqueous precipitating bath maintained at a pH of 7 or less, and simultaneously evaporating the organic solvent to obtain a precipitate of particles in water, separating therefrom and drying to produce the said pourable filler-containing elastomer particles. The pourable particles are particularly suitable in vulcanization processes to form shaped objects.

Abstract:
An elongated strip as a hermetic sealing element in multiple glaze construction of spaced-apart glass sheets mounted in a metal channel peripheral member, which elongated strip is a tacky, moisture and vapor impervious composition predominately of a heat-processed, partially cured dinitrosobenzene cross-linked low-molecular weight butyl rubber from masticating at between 280*F and 310*F for at least twelve and up to sixty minutes total masticating time that blend of components which for heat processing and partial curing and cross-linking comprises: 100 parts by weight of the butyl rubber copolymer, having a viscosity average molecular weight between 10,000 and 45,000, of 96 to 95.5 parts of isobutylene and 4 to 4.5 parts of isoprene; and between 2 1/4 and 9 parts of a non-sulfur cure system providing dinitrosobenzene cross-linking moieties.
Abstract:
A rubber composition containing cobalt carboxylate for adhering to zinc of zinc alloy plated steel is compounded with 0.1 to 4.0 parts of magnesium oxide per 100 parts of rubber by weight so as to retain a high adhesion even after thermal aging.
Abstract:
1. THE METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING VEHICLE TIRE TREADS HAVING PARTICLES OF ABRASIVE MATERIAL EMBEDDED IN THE TIRE TREAD RUBBER FORMULATION THEREOF, COMPRISING: PREHEATING THE PARTICLES TO A PREDETERMINED PREHEAT TEMPERATURE LEVEL SUFFICIENT FOR THE PARTICLES TO COACT WITH A COATING MATERIAL; INTIMATELY CONTACTING THE PREHEATED PARTICLES WITH THE COATING MATERIAL BONDABLE TO THE TIRE TREAD RUBBER FORMULATION, THE HEAT GENERATED WITH THE INTIMATELY CONTACTING COATING MATERIAL AND A PORTION OF THE COATING MATERIAL BEING BONDED GENERALLY ABOUT THE OUTER PERIPHERAL SURFACE OF THE PARTICLES; DRYING THE COATED PARTICLES; MIXING THE DRIED COATED PARTICLES WITH THE UNVULCANIZED TIRE TREAD RUBBER FORMULATION; AND MOLDING AND CURING THE COATED PARTICLE-TIRE TREAD RUBBER FORMULATION MIXTURE TO FORM THE TIRE TREAD.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR MAKING IMPROVED COMPOSITIONS OF RUBBER VULCANIZATES, SIMULTANEOUSLY POLYMERIZED WITH SILICONES TO GIVE IMPROVED ABRASION RESISTANT BODIES CONTAINING POWDERS OR GRANULES OF ABRASIVE INORGNIC MATERIALS. THE BODIES ARE FORMED UNDER PRESSURE OF ABOUT 2 KG./CM.2 AND TEMPERATURES OF 100-180*C.
