Abstract

Abstract A vulcanizable rubber composition comprising a rubber component, a formaldehyde-donor and a formaldehyde-acceptor, the formaldehyde-acceptor being a co-condensate of formaldehyde with a mixture of resorcinol and a phenol other than resorcinol, or a mixture of a condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde and a condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde, which is useful for achievement of the excellent adhesion of rubber to reinforcing materials simultaneously with vulcanization.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 171 words
A vulcanizable rubber composition containing a rubber component, a formaldehyde-donor selected from the group consisting of di- to hexa-methylolmelamines, completely or partially etherified or esterified derivatives thereof and hexamethylenetetramine and a formaldehyde-acceptor, wherein the formaldehyde-acceptor is a co-condensate of formaldehyde with a mixture of resorcinol and a phenol selected from the group consisting of m-cresol, p-cresol, tertbutylphenols and tert-octylphenols, the molar ratio of formaldehyde and the mixture of resorcinol and the phenol being 0.4-1.3 : 1, and the weight ratio of resorcinol and the phenol being from 95:5 to 50:50, or a mixture of a condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde and a condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde, the molar ratio of resorcinol and formaldehyde in the condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde being 0.4-1.0 : 1, and the molar ratio of formaldehyde and the phenol in the condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde being 0.5-1.4 : 1, and the weight ratio of the condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde and the condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde being from 95:5 to 50:50
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 171 words
A vulcanizable rubber composition containing a rubber component, a formaldehyde-donor selected from the group consisting of di- to hexa-methylolmelamines, completely or partially etherified or esterified derivatives thereof and hexamethylenetetramine and a formaldehyde-acceptor, wherein the formaldehyde-acceptor is a co-condensate of formaldehyde with a mixture of resorcinol and a phenol selected from the group consisting of m-cresol, p-cresol, tertbutylphenols and tert-octylphenols, the molar ratio of formaldehyde and the mixture of resorcinol and the phenol being 0.4-1.3 : 1, and the weight ratio of resorcinol and the phenol being from 95:5 to 50:50, or a mixture of a condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde and a condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde, the molar ratio of resorcinol and formaldehyde in the condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde being 0.4-1.0 : 1, and the molar ratio of formaldehyde and the phenol in the condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde being 0.5-1.4 : 1, and the weight ratio of the condensate of resorcinol with formaldehyde and the condensate of the phenol with formaldehyde being from 95:5 to 50:50
