Abstract
Abstract A process is provided for the production of soft compounds which are curable by heat to rubbery elastomers which process comprises mixing in a trough type blade mixer a butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer, filler, tackifying resin, plasticizer, a polymerizable monomer and an organic peroxidic compound. The soft compounds may be used as gunnable or spreadable compounds or for gasketing or jointing purposes and cured in situ.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
170 words
A process for the production of soft compounds which are curable by heat to rubbery elastomers which process comprises the steps of: adding to a trough type blade mixer one or more inorganic fillers, organic tackifying resin, a butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer and an organic peroxidic compound polymerizable monomer having two or three polymerizable carbon-carbon double bonds, said trough type blade mixer being selected from the group consisting of sigma-blade mixers, Z-blade mixers, horizontal dispersion-blade mixers and double Naben-blade mixers, initiating the mixing in said mixer and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, then adding to said mixer organic plasticizer and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, then adding to said mixer an organic peroxidic compound and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, said mixing being at a temperature of from about 20° to about 50° C., and removing the final mixture from said mixer as an essentially homogeneous soft compound.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
170 words
A process for the production of soft compounds which are curable by heat to rubbery elastomers which process comprises the steps of: adding to a trough type blade mixer one or more inorganic fillers, organic tackifying resin, a butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer and an organic peroxidic compound polymerizable monomer having two or three polymerizable carbon-carbon double bonds, said trough type blade mixer being selected from the group consisting of sigma-blade mixers, Z-blade mixers, horizontal dispersion-blade mixers and double Naben-blade mixers, initiating the mixing in said mixer and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, then adding to said mixer organic plasticizer and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, then adding to said mixer an organic peroxidic compound and continuing mixing for a time of from about 5 to about 30 minutes, said mixing being at a temperature of from about 20° to about 50° C., and removing the final mixture from said mixer as an essentially homogeneous soft compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
