Abstract
Abstract A rubber composition comprising (1) a partially hydrogenated copolymer rubber composed of 10 to 50% by weight of an acrylonitrile unit, 25 to 88% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 2 to 25% by weight of a conjugated diene unit, and (2) a sulfur vulcanizer system. The composition can give vulcanizates having improved ozone cracking resistance and oil resistance.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
80 words
A method of preventing deterioration of vulcanizable rubber products which come into contact with sour gasoline which comprises forming said product from a sulfur-vulcanized rubber article comprising a sulfur-vulcanized, filled partially hydrogenated random copolymer composed of 10 to 50% by weight of an acrylonitrile unit, 25 to 88% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 2 to 25% by weight of a conjugated diene unit, and allowing said sulfur-vulcanized rubber article to come into contact with sour gasoline.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
80 words
A method of preventing deterioration of vulcanizable rubber products which come into contact with sour gasoline which comprises forming said product from a sulfur-vulcanized rubber article comprising a sulfur-vulcanized, filled partially hydrogenated random copolymer composed of 10 to 50% by weight of an acrylonitrile unit, 25 to 88% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 2 to 25% by weight of a conjugated diene unit, and allowing said sulfur-vulcanized rubber article to come into contact with sour gasoline.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
The method of claim 1 in which the copolymer is composed of 25 to 45% by weight of acrylonitrile unit, 35 to 70% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 5 to 20% by weight of a conjugated diene unit.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the conjugated diene is at least one member selected from a group consisting of butadiene, isoprene and 1,3-pentadiene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
75 words
A rubber product such as hose or tube in combination with an internal combustion engine which generates sour gasoline from gasoline, said rubber product coming into contact with the sour gasoline and being formed from a sulfur-vulcanized, filled partially hydrogenated random copolymer composed of 10 to 50% by weight of an acrylonitrile unit, 25 to 88% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 2 to 25% by weight of a conjugated diene unit.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
75 words
A rubber product such as hose or tube in combination with an internal combustion engine which generates sour gasoline from gasoline, said rubber product coming into contact with the sour gasoline and being formed from a sulfur-vulcanized, filled partially hydrogenated random copolymer composed of 10 to 50% by weight of an acrylonitrile unit, 25 to 88% by weight of a hydrogenated conjugated diene unit and 2 to 25% by weight of a conjugated diene unit.
