Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 139 words
A method of improving adhesion between a vulcanizable elastomeric composition and a metal surface to provide a strong and durable bond, which method comprises (a) adding to a vulcanizable elastomeric composition a methylene acceptor and a methylene donor reactable therewith, and from 0.05% to 10% by weight based on the weight of the elastomer of a metal deactivating compound of the formula ##STR271## wherein R 12 is a lower alkyl group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R 13 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R 14 is hydrogen, an alkanoyl group containing 2 to 18 carbon atoms or a group represented by the formula ##STR272## and n is an integer from 0 to 5, and (b) vulcanizing the composition while it is in contact with the metal surface.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 139 words
A method of improving adhesion between a vulcanizable elastomeric composition and a metal surface to provide a strong and durable bond, which method comprises (a) adding to a vulcanizable elastomeric composition a methylene acceptor and a methylene donor reactable therewith, and from 0.05% to 10% by weight based on the weight of the elastomer of a metal deactivating compound of the formula ##STR271## wherein R 12 is a lower alkyl group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R 13 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R 14 is hydrogen, an alkanoyl group containing 2 to 18 carbon atoms or a group represented by the formula ##STR272## and n is an integer from 0 to 5, and (b) vulcanizing the composition while it is in contact with the metal surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 43 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the vulcanizable elastomer is selected from polybutadiene, polyisoprene, or a blend of natural rubber with (a) styrene-butadiene copolymer, (b) polybutadiene, (c) polyisoprene, or (d) unsaturated ethylene-propylene interpolymer, or a ternary blend of any of the above polymers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method of claim 1, wherein R 12 and R 13 are alkyl groups containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms and n is an integer of from 0 to 2.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
The method of claim 3, wherein R 14 is the group of the formula ##STR273##
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 4, wherein said compound is symmetrical.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 5, wherein said compound is N,N'-bis-beta-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionylhydrazine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 5, wherein said compound is N,N'-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-benzoyl)hydrazine.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the methylene acceptor and the methylene donor consist essentially of hexamethylenetetramine and resorcinol.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the methylene acceptor and the methylene donor consist essentially of a melamine and resorcinol.
