1,213,691. Metal-rubber laminates. LORD CORP. 4 Jan., 1968 [26 Jan., 1967], No. 714/68. Heading B5N. [Also in Division C3] Natural and synthetic rubbers may be bonded to metal with a composition comprising dinitrosobenzen (DNB) and a silane wherein at least one R is a methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy or acetoxy group or a chlorine atom, and any remaining groups R are inert to hydrolysis. Preferably the composition contains 0À1 to 7À5 parts by weight of silane per part of DNB, and also contains up to 3 part per parts of DNB/silane mixture of a chlorinecontaining film-forming polymer, e.g. chlorosulphonated polyethylene, chlorinated polyethylene - propylene copolymers, chlorinated P.V.C., chlorinated polyethylene and chlorinated natural rubber. In addition the composition may contain, per p.b.w. of DNB/ silane mixture, 0À01 to 1À5 parts of a polyisocyanate, and/or 0À5 to 3 parts of an epoxidized novolak. Other conventional additives may be present e.g. C black and ZnO, as fillers, or hydrocarbon or halohydrocarbon or ketone diluents. In the examples compositions are prepared from DNB and γ-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane in benzene or xylene alone (Examples 1-13) or with chlorinated polyethylene/propylene (60 : 40 by weight, containing 1-2 wt. per cent of cyclopentadiene) plus C black and ZnO, (Example 14) or with a chlorosulphonated polyethylene and dianisidine diisocyanate (DADI) (Examples 15 and 16) or with DADI and chlorosulphonated polyethylene, polychloroprene, chlorinated P.V.C., chlorinated polyethylene or chlorinated natural rubber or the resin 'of Example 14 (Examples 17-38). In Examples 39 and 41 DNB and silane is mixed with the terpolymer of Example 14 plus C black, an epoxy novolak and propylene dichloride/trichloroethylene, or with chlorosulphonated polyethylene, DADI, C black, ZnO, trichloroethylene and xylene. The compositions are used to bond natural rubber, polychloroprene, butadiene - acrylonitrile, butadiene-styrene and butyl rubber stocks to grit-blasted cold rolled steel. The rubber may be cured during bonding. A list of metals that may be bonded is given.
Abstract:
The invention refers to a rope (3) made of a textile fiber material, comprising a rope core (6) as well as a sheath (7) surrounding the rope core (6), wherein the rope (3) comprises at least one antistatic multifilament yarn (5) or antistatic monofilament that is located in the rope core (6), in the sheath (7), in an intermediate sheath (8) located between the rope core (6) and the sheath (7) and/or in a reinforcement located between the rope core (6) and the sheath (7), wherein the antistatic monofilament or individual filaments (12) of the antistatic multifilament yarn (5) each comprise a conductive fiber core (13) sheathed with a non-conductive plastic sheath (14), and wherein the at least one antistatic multifilament yarn (5) or antistatic monofilament is twisted with a twine (16) or yarn of a different material, wherein the other material of the twine (16) or yarn mentioned is preferably UHMWPE or PES.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composite based at least on a component having a metal surface and on a polymer matrix comprising a functional diene polymer that bears at least one aromatic group. The aromatic group is substituted by at least two hydroxyl functions, where two of the hydroxyl functions are vicinal. Such a composite has a good resistance to delamination.
Abstract:
An article containing an innerduct structure and a woven rope located within the innerduct structure. The woven rope an inner portion comprising a plurality of multifilament fibers in the length direction of the woven rope and a jacket portion covering the inner portion. The jacket portion contains a plurality of monofilament fibers in the length direction of the woven rope and at least one multifilament fiber in the circumferential direction interwoven with the monofilament fibers in the length direction of the jacket portion. The monofilament fibers of the jacket portion form the majority of the outer surface of the woven rope.
Abstract:
A method for stranding aramid yarn around an endless core includes a stranding step that involves a stranding apparatus having at least one yarn bobbin. The bobbin revolves around its own axis and the bobbin revolves around the core, wherein the yarn unwinds from the bobbin and winds around the core. The yarn is a continuous aramid yarn provided with 0.05 to 0.95 wt %, based on the weight of the aramid, of a finish including an organophosphorus compound. The organophosphorus compound is a compound of the formula X1X2X3P═O. X1, X2, and X3 are independently selected from Y1-, Y1-O—, and M-O. Y1 is a branched or straight-chain C1-C20 alkyl, aryl or alkenyl. M is selected from Li, Na, K, or ammonium. At least one of X1, X2, or X3 is selected from Y1- or Y1-O—.
Abstract:
Composite reinforcer (R-2) self-adhesive, by curing, to a diene rubber matrix, which can be used as reinforcing element for a tire, comprising: one or more reinforcing thread(s) (20), for example a carbon steel cord; a first layer (21) of a thermoplastic polymer, the glass transition temperature of which is positive, for example, a polyamide 6,6, covering individually said thread or each thread or collectively several threads; a second layer (22) comprising a functionalized diene elastomer bearing functional groups selected from epoxide, carboxyl, acid anhydride and acid ester groups, for example, an epoxidized natural rubber, covering the first layer (21). Process for manufacturing such a composite reinforcer and rubber article or semi-finished product, especially a tire, incorporating such a composite reinforcer.
Abstract:
A composite reinforcer capable of adhering directly to a diene rubber matrix, which can be used in particular as a reinforcing element for a tyre, comprises: one or more reinforcing thread(s), for example a thread or cord made of carbon steel; and a layer of a polymer composition which covers the said thread, individually each thread or collectively several threads, this layer comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer, the glass transition temperature of which is positive, such as, for example, a polyamide, and an epoxidized diene elastomer, such as, for example, natural rubber or a butadiene homopolymer or copolymer. A process for the manufacture of such a composite reinforcer, and a finished article or semi-finished product made of rubber, in particular a tyre, incorporating such a composite reinforcer are also disclosed.
