SEALING MATERIAL

摘要

Provided is a sealing material having low hardness, low density, and excellent sealing properties. A sealing material, made by vulcanizing and foaming a blend containing: a thermoplastic resin; a foaming agent; a vulcanizing agent; and a rubber component containing a rubber copolymer of ethylene, a non-conjugate diene, and an α-olefin with 3 or more carbon atoms; wherein the blend contains 2 to 4 mass parts of stearic acid and 5 to 7 mass parts of CaO in 100 mass parts of the rubber component, and the 50% compressive stress of the sealing material is 100 kPa or less.

1. A sealing material obtained by vulcanizing and expanding an intimate mixture comprising a rubber component containing a copolymeric rubber of ethylene, an α-olefin having 3 or more carbon atoms and a non-conjugated diene, a vulcanizing agent, a foaming agent and a thermoplastic resin, characterized in that
the intimate mixture includes from 2 to 4 parts by weight of stearic acid and from 5 to 7 parts by weight of calcium oxide per 100 parts by weight of the rubber component, and the sealing material has a stress under 50% compression of 100 kPa or less.
