Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a rubber composition comprising a non-polar rubber, a polar rubber a phenolic resin, a binder, particulate silica and conventional additives, and simultaneously having a high low temperature tan δ and a low high temperature tan δ. SOLUTION: This silica-containing rubber composition comprises (A) at least one kind of non-polar rubber comprising at lest 90wt.% of the polymer of a monomer comprising only C and H atoms and at least 10wt.% of the polymer of a monomer having at least two olefinic double bonds in the molecule, (B) at least one kind of a binder, (C) particulate silica having a specific surface area of 100-250m /g, (D) one or more conventional additives, (E) the polar copolymer rubber of monomers whose at least 20% have polar groups, and (F) a phenolic resin. The polar group has a bipolar moment of at least 1.668×10 on its bond to an aliphatic carbon atom having only single bonds.

Abstract:
A vulcanisate is prepd. from a mixt. of at least 2 rubbers, (A) contg. 50-95 pts. of rubber and 30-150 pts. of filler, and (B) 50-5 pts. of rubber and 50-95 pts. of filler, w.r.t. 100 pts. of rubber in the final mixt., and where (A) and/or (B) contain (C) 2-30 pts. of a reinforcing resin system. Compsns. differing in rubber, filler, oil, reinforcing system and opt. thermoplastic copolymer are mixed, opt. shaped and vulcanised at raised temp. The reinforcing resin is a novolak, used in 0-50 pts. in (A) and 10-60 pts. in (B); the novolak is esp. from phenol opt. mixed with phenols with 1-18C hydrocarbon substits., and HCHO. The rubber is styrene/butadiene and/or natural rubber, or mixts. of these with minor amts. of other rubbers. The active inorganic filler is (mainly) C black. The reinforcing system may comprise the novolak and an incorporated or separate hardener, esp. hexamethylene tetramine or a melamine resin.
Abstract:
Modified novolaks based on phenols which are trifunctional with respect to formaldehyde and contain, as modifying components, terpenes and unsaturated carboxylic acids or derivatives of these compounds, the weight ratio between the terpenes and the unsaturated carboxylic acids or derivatives thereof being in the range from 98.5:2.5 to 2.5:98.5 and the weight ratio between the phenolic component and the sum of the modified components being in the range from 95:5 to 5:95 and the modified novolaks having a melting point greater than 45 DEG C. Process for the preparation of the modified novolaks by admixing the modifying components indicated with non-modified novolaks in the necessary amounts at temperatures between 80 DEG and 300 DEG C. Use of the modified novolaks as reinforcing resins for rubber and elastomers, as tackifying agents for rubber, as binders for friction linings, curable molding compositions, impregnants, coatings, paints and binders for finely divided inorganic substrates.
Abstract:
A reinforced rubber mixture composed of (A) at least one natural, styrene/butadiene, polybutadiene, polyisoprene, transpolyoctenylene, ethylene/propylene/diene terpolymer and butyl rubber, (B) at least one phenol novolak resin and/or reactive polyphenol, (C) curing agents and, if appropriate, (D) customary additives, wherein the rubber mixture contains, as an additional component (E), at least one polar, chlorine-free rubber in the form of nitrile rubber having a nitrile content of at least 32% or polyurethane rubber in a proportion by weight of 1 to 49% by weight, relative to the total amount of rubber. Process for the preparation thereof and the use of the reinforced rubber mixtures for the production of industrial rubber goods, in particular for the production of antivibration units, rubber sleeves, coatings, conveyor belts and tires.
Abstract:
The preparation of binder resins having improved flow properties in the production of curable fibre composites from natural or synthetic fibre materials based on thermocurable novolaks which contain crosslinking agents, but virtually no free monocyclic phenols involves admixing the novolaks in the melt with polyglycols and/or polycarboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof and/or acidic esters made from polyglycols and polycarboxylic acids, preferably in total amounts of up to 20% by weight, cooling the mixture to room temperature, powdering the mixture and mixing the mixture intimately with the required amount of pulverulent crosslinking agent.
Abstract:
Vulcanisable rubber mixts. (I), with improved adhesion to steel cord- or textile fibre-based reinforcements, are claimed, together with the vulcanisation of such mixts.; (I) contain vulcanisable rubber, adhesion promoters (II), vulcanising agents, hardening agents, fillers and the usual additives; the novelty is that (II) is a modified novolak which is obtd. by simultaneous reaction of a polyhydric phenol with an aldehyde and an unsatd. hydrocarbon (III) at elevated temp. in the presence of an acid catalyst, and which contains no residual free phenol. (II) is produced from resorcinol, 1-10C aldehyde (pref. formaldehyde or a source thereof) and (III) (pref. a vinylaromatic cpd.), with mol. ratio resorcinol:(III):aldehyde = (1:0.1:0.3)-(1:1.5:0.95), pref. (1:0.4:0.5)-(1:1.1:0.8); (I) contain up to 20 wt.% (II).
