Abstract

Abstract An oil resistant rubber hose having an internal layer made of a vulcanized rubber composition of, or composed mainly of, partially hydrogenated unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber in which at least 50% of the conjugated diene units is hydrogenated. This rubber hose is superior in resistance to deteriorated gasoline and low temperature, and is suitable for the automobile fuel line.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
A rubber hose having the internal layer made of a vulcanized rubber composition of partially hydrogenated unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber in which at least 50% of the conjugated diene units are hydrogenated, said copolymer rubber being incorporated with more than 2 wt% of liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer having a number-average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 58 words
A rubber hose having the internal layer made of a vulcanized rubber composition of partially hydrogenated unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber in which at least 50% of the conjugated diene units are hydrogenated, said copolymer rubber being incorporated with more than 2 wt% of liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer having a number-average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 66 words
A rubber hose as claimed in claim 1, wherein the unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber to be hydrogated contains 10 to 70 wt% of unsaturated nitrile, and the liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer is composed of 10 to 70 wt% of unsaturated nitrile, 20 to 80 wt% of conjugated diene, and 0 to 20 wt% of vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the unsaturated nitrile and conjugated diene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 67 words
A rubber hose having the internal layer made of a vulcanized rubber composition of partially hydrogenated unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber in which at least 50% of the conjugated diene units are hydrogenated, said copolymer rubber being incorporated with more than 2 wt% of liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer having a number-average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000 and more than 5 wt% of polyvinyl chloride resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 67 words
A rubber hose having the internal layer made of a vulcanized rubber composition of partially hydrogenated unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber in which at least 50% of the conjugated diene units are hydrogenated, said copolymer rubber being incorporated with more than 2 wt% of liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer having a number-average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000 and more than 5 wt% of polyvinyl chloride resin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 66 words
A rubber hose as claimed in claim 3, wherein the unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber to be hydrogenated contains 10 to 70 wt% of unsaturated nitrile, and the liquid unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer is composed of 10 to 70 wt% of unsaturated nitrile, 20 to 80 wt% of conjugated diene, and 0 to 20 wt% of vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the unsaturated nitrile and conjugated diene.
