Abstract

Abstract An aqueous alkaline dispersion of a rubbery vinyl pyridine copolymer, a polymethylol glycoluril compound, and a resorcinol-formaldehyde novolak, in certain amounts, is useful in forming an adhesive for bonding glass fiber reinforcing elements or cords to rubber compounds or stocks. After dipping the glass fiber cord in the one-step adhesive dip, the coated cord is heated to dry it and heat cure or heat set the adhesive on the cord. Thereafter, the adhesive containing glass fiber cord is combined or laminated (calendered) with a curable rubber compound and the resulting assembly is cured to form a composite in which the glass fiber cord is bonded to the rubber by means of said adhesive.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 145 words
A composition of matter useful in adhering glass fibers to rubber and consisting essentially of an aqueous alkaline dispersion of 100 parts by weight of a rubbery vinyl pyridine copolymer, from about 2 to 32 parts by weight of at least one water soluble polymethylolglycoluril compound having the formula ##STR3## where R is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl and where R' is hydrogen or methylol, at least two of the R's being methylol, from about 2 to 24 parts by weight of at least one water soluble, thermoplastic and non heat hardenable resorcinol-formaldehyde novolak, said novolak having been made by the reaction of formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde with resorcinol under acid conditions, from about 0 to 3 parts by weight of an alkaline material selected from the group consisting of NH 4 OH, KOH and NaOH, and from about 150 to 1100 parts by weight of water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 145 words
A composition of matter useful in adhering glass fibers to rubber and consisting essentially of an aqueous alkaline dispersion of 100 parts by weight of a rubbery vinyl pyridine copolymer, from about 2 to 32 parts by weight of at least one water soluble polymethylolglycoluril compound having the formula ##STR3## where R is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl and where R' is hydrogen or methylol, at least two of the R's being methylol, from about 2 to 24 parts by weight of at least one water soluble, thermoplastic and non heat hardenable resorcinol-formaldehyde novolak, said novolak having been made by the reaction of formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde with resorcinol under acid conditions, from about 0 to 3 parts by weight of an alkaline material selected from the group consisting of NH 4 OH, KOH and NaOH, and from about 150 to 1100 parts by weight of water.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 68 words
