Abstract:
Double rustproof PC strand comprising a core wire (8) and six surrounding wires (9) twisted around said core wire (8), the wires having the following diameters: (A) diameter of the core wire (8): 4.42 ± 0.05 mm, diameter of the surrounding wire (9): 4.25 ± 0.05 mm; or (B) diameter of the core wire(8): 5.22 ± 0.05 mm, diameter of the surrounding wire (9): 5.06 ± 0.05 mm; or (C) diameter of the core wire (8): 5.40 ± 0.05 mm, diameter of the surrounding wire (9): 5.25 ± 0.05 mm. The tensile strength of the strand is 1850 N/mm 2 or higher. All wires were subjected to a wire drawing treatment and each wire comprises a plated layer (2). Additionally each plated wire or the strand is coated with a synthetic resin coating on an outer peripheral surface thereof. The PC strand has a uniform twisting pitch, durability and semi-permanent rustproof performance.
Abstract:
The invention relates to cord (20) comprising a number of filaments twisted together. The peripheral surface of the cord (20) is at least partially coated with an adhesion promoting coating (24). The adhesion promoting coating (24) comprises at least a first layer comprising a silicon based coating, a titanium based coating, a zirconium based coating or a combination thereof. The invention further relates to a composite material comprising such a cord (20) embedded in a polymer material. Furthermore the invention relates to a method to manufacture such a cord (20).
Abstract:
A steel filament adapted for the reinforcement of elastomer or for thermoplastic products has a carbon content ranging up to 0.20 per cent by weight. The steel filament is provided with a coating promoting the adhesion with elastomer or thermoplastic products. The steel filament is drawn until a final diameter of less than 0.60 mm and a final tensile strength of more than 1200 MPa. Intermediate heat treatments are avoided so that the carbon footprint of the steel filament is substantially reduced.
Abstract:
Tire (100) comprising at least one structural element including at least one metal cord comprising a plurality of elementary metal wires stranded together, each elementary metal wire being coated with at least one first metal coating layer, said metal cord being coated with at least one second metal coating layer, wherein said at least one second metal coating layer has a nominal thickness higher than or equal to 30 nm, preferably of from 50 nm to 120 nm, more preferably of from 70 nm to 100 nm.
Abstract:
A steel cord comprises more than one steel filament (10). At least some of the steel filaments have a zinc iron alloy layer (14) partially covered with a zinc cover (16). The zinc cover is only present in valleys formed in the zinc-iron alloy layer. The processability and adhesion level in rubber products of the stell cord are increased.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Gummiartikel mit einer Verstärkung aus Seilen, die in mindestens zwei Schichten gegliedert sind, wobei zumindest ein Filament einer inneren Schicht aus einer metallischen Legierung besteht, wobei zumindest die Filamente der äußeren Schichten des Seiles haftend in dem umgebenden Gummi ggf. unter Verwendung eines Haftvermittlers wie z. B. Messing eingebettet sind, wobei alle aus metallischer Legierung bestehenden Filamente mit einer gegen Korrosion schützenden Schicht überzogen sind. Zur Verbesserung des Korrosionsschutzes bei ausreichender Haftfestigkeit zum umgebenden Gummi wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß zumindest einige Filamente der inneren Schicht(en) gegen Korrosion durch eine Schicht geschützt sind, die ein intrinsisch leitfähiges Polymer enthält, während die übrigen Filamente, insbesondere die der äußersten Schicht, in an sich bekannter Weise gegen Korrosion geschützt sind, z. B. durch einen Messingüberzug, was gleichzeitig einen gut bewährte Haftvermittlung bereitstellt.
