Definitions
- An elastomeric composition An elastomeric composition, a method of preparing the composition, and a building block for an elastomeric composition
- the present invention relates to a novel elastomeric composition, a method of preparing it as well as a building block for an elastomeric composition.
- elastomeric composition includes elastomers, thermoplastics, and cross-linked polymers therefrom. Generally a large amount of different elastomer composition are known. Some of the most used compositions includes rubbers such as polybutadiene, ethylene- propylene rubber, polyisopren and natural rubber; thermoplastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl, polystyrene and polycarbonate; ionomers such as poly (ethylene-co-methacrylic acid); block co-polymers such as SBS, SIS, SEBS and etc. Other examples of elastomeric compositions are described in EP 626 978, US 4,431,777, US 4,925894 and GB 1,056,247.
- the objective of the present invention is to provide a novel elastomeric composition, which has relative good properties with respect to mechanical properties such as stress, strength, resistance to chemicals and wear resistance versus its cost compared to known polymeric compositions and thereby provide a further possibility to the constructors when selecting a polymer composition for a specific product.
- the elastomeric composition according to the invention has furthermore shown to be injection mouldable, which is a major advantage.
- elastomeric composition includes elastomers, thermoplastics, and cross-linked polymers therefrom which do still exhibit elastomeric properties.
- the elastomeric composition according to the invention should preferably have an elongation of at least 1%.
- the elastomeric composition should preferably have a Tg value above room temperature i.e. thermoplastic elastomers are preferred.
- the Tg value of the elastomeric composition or in case it is a thermoplastic elastomer, blocks of the elastomeric composition comprising block copolymers should have a Tg value below
- the elastomeric composition according to the invention comprises
- the particles may in principle be any type of particles solid at room temperature.
- the particles may preferably solid at a temperature up to at least about 100 °C .
- the fillers mat thus, e.g. be in the form of inorganic material selected from the group consisting of glass, silica, silicon dioxide, ceramics, carbon, minerals and metal, such as bronze and mixtures thereof.
- the particles may also be in the form of organic material preferably a polymeric material such as polymers selected from the group consisting of olefins polyolefines such as polyethylene; polystyrene, polivinylacetate, polyviylchloride, polyvinylpyrrolidene, polyacrylonitrile , polymethylmethacrylate , polytetrafluoroethylene, polypropylene, cellulose, nitrocellulose, starch, polysaccharides, natural rubber, butyl rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, silicone rubber, silicates, polysilicates and mixtures thereof
- olefins polyolefines such as polyethylene; polystyrene, polivinylacetate, polyviylchloride, polyvinylpyrrolidene, polyacrylonitrile , polymethylmethacrylate , polytetrafluoroethylene, polypropylene, cellulose, nitrocellulose, starch, polysaccharides, natural
- the particles is of a thermoplastic material having a melt point above about 120 °C. In one embodiment it is desired that the particles is of an inorganic material, more preferably of glass or carbon.
- the particles may have any shape, and it may be porous or nonporous. Preferably the solid particles is essentially non-porous.
- the particles may e.g. be in the form of fibres, beads and/or powder.
- the size of the particles measured without coating may vary in dependence of the properties desired in the final elastomeric compositions. In one embodiment it is preferred that at least 90 % by weight of the particles have a size between 1 nm and 1000 ⁇ m, more preferably between 10 and 600 ⁇ m, and even more preferably between 1 and 100 ⁇ m measured using sieving.
- the solid particles are in the form of glass beads, the size of the beads preferably being so that at least 90 % of the beads are in the interval 5-50 ⁇ m measured using sieving.
- the particles is partly or totally coated with one or more layers i.e. up to for example 10 layers of a material as will be discussed in further detain below.
- the innermost layer is designated a primary primer layer
- the outermost layer is designated a secondary primer layer.
- the particles is totally coated with at least the outermost layer, and preferably with all layers if more than one layer.
- the particles are coated with one primer layer only, i.e. this one primer layer constitutes both the innermost primer layer and the outermost primer layer.
- the particles is coated with two primer layers, wherein these two layers constitute, respectively, the innermost primer layer and the outermost primer layer.
- the secondary primer layer should comprise C atoms and/or Si atoms.
- the amount of C atoms and/or Si atoms should preferably be at least 1 per 1000 atoms of the material, more preferably least 1 per 100 atoms of the material. These C atoms and/or Si atoms should preferably be evenly distributed in the material, to provide an essentially homogeneous surface of the outermost primer layer for bonding to the primary polymer chains.
- the primary primer layer may preferably also comprise C atoms and/or Si atoms, and it is more preferred that the amount of C atoms and/or Si atoms should be at least 1 per 1000 atoms of the material, even more preferably least 1 per 100 atoms of the material.
- the secondary primer layer is of a material comprising oxygen atoms and/or halogen atoms, preferably in the form of organic groups carrying electronegative group, more preferably selected from the group consisting of ester groups and halogen acid groups .
