Abstract
Abstract An improved method is provided for bonding together layers of fluoroelastomer compound and butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer compound by incorporating into one or both of the compounds a polysulphidic silane compound prior to vulcanization. There is also provided a vulcanized hose having an inner layer of fluoroelastomer compound and an outer layer of a butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer compound containing a polysulphidic silane compound incorporated into either layer.
