Abstract
Abstract Polyurethane paint is applied with good adhesion to a vulcanized rubber surface composed of halogenated butyl rubber or blends thereof with natural rubber, SBR rubber, EPDM rubber, polybutadiene rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, polychlorophrene rubber, synthetic polyisoprene rubber, or chloro sulfonated polyethylene rubber, the blends containing at least 30 phr halogenated butyl rubber, the rubber having been cured using a metal oxide or halide and an alkyl phenol polysulfide accelerator.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
The process of applying a polyurethane paint to a vulcanized rubber surface, said vulcanized rubber being selected from the group consisting of halogenated butyl rubber and blends of same with a rubber selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, EPDM rubber, polybutadiene rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, polychloroprene rubber, synthetic polyisoprene rubber, or chloro sulfonated polyethylene rubber, said blends containing at least 30 parts of halogenated butyl rubber per hundred parts by weight of vulcanized rubber, said rubber having been cured using a metal oxide or halide and an alkyl phenol polysulfide accelerator, said process consisting essentially of the step of applying said paint to the cured rubber surface, said rubber surface being substantially unmodified after curing whereby good adhesion of said paint on said surface is obtained.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
The process of applying a polyurethane paint to a vulcanized rubber surface, said vulcanized rubber being selected from the group consisting of halogenated butyl rubber and blends of same with a rubber selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, EPDM rubber, polybutadiene rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, polychloroprene rubber, synthetic polyisoprene rubber, or chloro sulfonated polyethylene rubber, said blends containing at least 30 parts of halogenated butyl rubber per hundred parts by weight of vulcanized rubber, said rubber having been cured using a metal oxide or halide and an alkyl phenol polysulfide accelerator, said process consisting essentially of the step of applying said paint to the cured rubber surface, said rubber surface being substantially unmodified after curing whereby good adhesion of said paint on said surface is obtained.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
