Abstract
Abstract An adhesive composition for filling gaps and sealing joints in engineering assembly comprises a blend of 100 parts by weight of a liquid polybutadiene polymer having an average molecular weight from 1,000 and a viscosity from 2 to 800 dPas at 25 DEG C., at least 40 percent of the unsaturation having a 1,4 configuration, preferably cis 1,4; 5 to 60 parts of powdered sulphur; 2.5 to 70 parts of an organic accelerator or accelerators; and up to 80 percent by weight of an inert filler or fillers. The adhesive composition may also include promoters, dessicants, blowing agents and/or solid rubber, preferably solid polybutadiene.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
An adhesive composition which is in the form of a paste and which comprises a vulcanizable component, powdered sulfur, an accelerator system and a filler system, at least about 83 percent by weight of the vulcanizable component being a liquid polybutadiene polymer specimen having an average molecular weight in the range of 1,000 to 10,000, a viscosity in the range of 2 to 800 dPas at 25° C. and at least 40 percent of the unsaturation in the 1,4 configuration; said vulcanizable component constituting 100 parts by weight of the composition; said powdered sulfur constituting 5 to 60 parts by weight of the composition; said accelerator system constituting 2.5 to 70 parts by weight of the composition; and said filler system, which comprises at least one inert filler, constituting up to 80 percent by weight of the composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
138 words
An adhesive composition which is in the form of a paste and which comprises a vulcanizable component, powdered sulfur, an accelerator system and a filler system, at least about 83 percent by weight of the vulcanizable component being a liquid polybutadiene polymer specimen having an average molecular weight in the range of 1,000 to 10,000, a viscosity in the range of 2 to 800 dPas at 25° C. and at least 40 percent of the unsaturation in the 1,4 configuration; said vulcanizable component constituting 100 parts by weight of the composition; said powdered sulfur constituting 5 to 60 parts by weight of the composition; said accelerator system constituting 2.5 to 70 parts by weight of the composition; and said filler system, which comprises at least one inert filler, constituting up to 80 percent by weight of the composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
