- How is butyl rubber cross-linked or vulcanized?
- Butyl rubber is typically cross-linked or vulcanized by one of three basic methods. These are (1) accelerated sulfur vulcanization, (2) cross-linking with dioxime and related dinitroso compounds, and (3) a phenol-formaldehyde (resol) resin cure. This invention is concerned with the latter curing method.
- How long does butyl rubber last?
- The bladder is thus repeatedly used for a number of cycles. Subjecting phenol-formaldehyde resin cured butyl rubber to elevated temperatures, such as those reached during the process of curing tires, e.g., above 160°C, results in hardening or ageing of the butyl rubber. As a result, the butyl rubber has a limited life in such applications.
- How is butyl rubber made?
- Butyl rubber is produced commercially by copolymerizing isobutylene with small amounts of isoprene.
- How much phenol-formaldehyde resin is in butyl rubber?
- The amount of phenol-formaldehyde resin in the butyl rubber formulation should be about less than 9.5 parts, preferably less than about 9 parts, more preferably less than about 8 parts, to 95 parts by weight of uncured butyl rubber.
- What are the properties of butyl rubber?
- Butyl rubber in the uncured state is a weak material having the typical properties of a plastic gum; it has no definite elastic limit, that is, upon slow application of tensile stress, it elongates almost indefinitely without breaking, and exhibits virtually no elastic recovery after the stress is removed.
- What is the molar ratio of butyl rubber?
- Butyl rubber formulations cured with polycyclic phenol-formaldehyde resins having dimethylene ether bridges and methylene bridges, wherein the molar ratio of dimethylene ether bridges to methylene bridges is less than about 2.5:1, display improved heat ageing characteristics. This invention relates to curing of butyl rubber.
