Abstract

Abstract An improved double-layered rubber laminate is proposed, which is an integral body consisting of a first layer of an organopolysiloxane-based rubber composition and a second layer of an acrylic rubber-based composition. When the acrylic rubber in the latter composition is not a conventional acrylic rubber but a copolymeric rubber of a (meth)acrylate ester monomer and an organosilicon monomer having, in a molecule, at least one silicon-bonded vinyl group and an ethylenically unsaturated group other than silicon-bonded vinyl groups, such as 3-methacryloxypropyl, very firm bonding can be obtained between the layers by the co-vulcanization of the laminated layers to exhibit very high resistance against delamination.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 248 words
A double-layered rubber laminate which is an integral body consisting of (A) a first layer of a rubber which is a cured organopolysiloxane composition comprising (a) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula R a SiO.sub.(4-a)/2, in which R is an unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon group and the subscript a is a positive number in the range from 1.95 to 2.05; (b) from 5 to 500 parts by weight of a finely divided silica powder having a specific surface area of at least 1 m 2 /g; and (c) from 0.1 to 5 parts by weight of a first organic peroxide; and (B) a second layer of a rubber which is a cured acrylic rubber-based composition comprising (d) 100 parts by weight of an acrylic rubber comprising a copolymer of from 99.99% to 90% by weight of the (meth)acrylate ester monomer and from 0.01% to 10% by weight of a vinyl silyl-containing monomer which has another ethylenically unsaturated group indirectly bonded to the silicon atom; (e) from 10 to 200 parts by weight of a reinforcing filler having a specific surface area of at least 30 m 2 /g; and (f) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a second organic peroxide, the first and second rubber layers being integrally bonded to each other by curing a laminate consisting of a first layer of the organopolysiloxane composition before curing and a second layer of the acrylic rubber-based composition before curing.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 248 words
A double-layered rubber laminate which is an integral body consisting of (A) a first layer of a rubber which is a cured organopolysiloxane composition comprising (a) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula R a SiO.sub.(4-a)/2, in which R is an unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon group and the subscript a is a positive number in the range from 1.95 to 2.05; (b) from 5 to 500 parts by weight of a finely divided silica powder having a specific surface area of at least 1 m 2 /g; and (c) from 0.1 to 5 parts by weight of a first organic peroxide; and (B) a second layer of a rubber which is a cured acrylic rubber-based composition comprising (d) 100 parts by weight of an acrylic rubber comprising a copolymer of from 99.99% to 90% by weight of the (meth)acrylate ester monomer and from 0.01% to 10% by weight of a vinyl silyl-containing monomer which has another ethylenically unsaturated group indirectly bonded to the silicon atom; (e) from 10 to 200 parts by weight of a reinforcing filler having a specific surface area of at least 30 m 2 /g; and (f) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a second organic peroxide, the first and second rubber layers being integrally bonded to each other by curing a laminate consisting of a first layer of the organopolysiloxane composition before curing and a second layer of the acrylic rubber-based composition before curing.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 60 words
The double-layered rubber laminate as claimed in claim 1 in which the acrylic rubber as the component (d) is a copolymer of a (meth)acrylate ester monomer represented by the general formula CH 2 ═CR 1 --CO--O--R 2 , in which R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group and R 2 is an alkyl or alkoxy-substituted alkyl group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
The double-layered rubber laminate as claimed in claim 2 in which the ethylenically unsaturated group indirectly bonded to the silicon atom is selected from the group consisting of acryloxymethyl group, 3-methacryloxypropyl group, vinylphenyl group and 3-acrylamidopropyl group.
