Abstract
Abstract The metal adhesion and heat and water resistance of conventional neoprene latex adhesives are improved by the addition thereto of a polyamine and an epoxy resin wherein for every 100 parts by weight of dry neoprene, the epoxy is added in an amount of 10-40 parts and the amine is added in an amount sufficient to provide 50-150% of the stoichiometric amount required to cure the epoxy.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
135 words
An improved multi-part aqueous contact adhesive composition containing not more than a minor amount of organic solvent consisting essentially of an unreacted blend of: (a) a neoprene latex, (b) a polyamine, (c) an epoxy resin, and (d) a tackifier selected from the group consisting of natural and modified rosins, polyterpene resins having a softening poing of from about 80° to 150° C., and aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbon resins having a Ball and Ring softening point of from about 70° to 135° C.; wherein for every 100 parts by weight of dry neoprene, the epoxy resin is present in an amount of 10 to 40 parts, the polyamine in an amount sufficient to provide 50 to 150% of the stoichiometric amount required to cure the epoxy, and the tackifier in an amount of 20 to 50 parts.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
135 words
An improved multi-part aqueous contact adhesive composition containing not more than a minor amount of organic solvent consisting essentially of an unreacted blend of: (a) a neoprene latex, (b) a polyamine, (c) an epoxy resin, and (d) a tackifier selected from the group consisting of natural and modified rosins, polyterpene resins having a softening poing of from about 80° to 150° C., and aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbon resins having a Ball and Ring softening point of from about 70° to 135° C.; wherein for every 100 parts by weight of dry neoprene, the epoxy resin is present in an amount of 10 to 40 parts, the polyamine in an amount sufficient to provide 50 to 150% of the stoichiometric amount required to cure the epoxy, and the tackifier in an amount of 20 to 50 parts.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein the composition is provided in two parts with part I comprising the neoprene latex, the amine and the tackifier and part II comprising the epoxy resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein the neoprene latex comprises a copolymer of chloroprene with methacrylic acid or 2,3-dichlor-1,3-butadiene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein the amine is selected from the group consisting of isophorone diamine, tetraethylene pentamine, ethylene diamine, diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine, propylene diamine, butylene diamine and hexamethylene diamine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words
The adhesive composition of claim 4 wherein the amine is isophorone diamine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
48 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein the epoxy resin is selected from the group consisting of the reaction product of bisphenol A and epichlorohydrin, epoxidized novolac resins, resinous reaction products formed by reaction of epichlorohydrin and an aliphatic polyol, and resins obtained by epoxidation with peracetic acid.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
16 words
The adhesive composition of claim 6 wherein the epoxy resin comprises the 4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol epichlorohydrin reaction product.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
28 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein amine is present in an amount sufficient to provide 90 to 150% of the stoichiometric amount required to cure the epoxy.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
43 words
The adhesive composition of claim 1 wherein there is additionally present a metallic oxide stabilizer in an amount of about 1-3% by weight of the dry neoprene and an antioxidant in an amount less than about 2% by weight of the dry neoprene.
