Abstract
Abstract A rubber is bonded to a polyolefine by placing on the rubber a layer of polyolefine of melt index less than 0.15 and applying heat and pressure. If the rubber is an unvulcanized mix containing a vulcanizing agent, the temperature, pressure and duration should be sufficient to cause vulcanization of the rubber. If the rubber is partly or fully vulcanized the pressure used is at least 10 kg./cm.2 and the polyolefine is heated to at least its melting point. The low melt index polyolefine may be in the form of a powder, powder suspension, film or sheet, which can thus be used to adhere a higher melt index polyolefine to the rubber. Various integral rubber/polyolefine articles are produced by this method.
