The resistances to abrasion, fatigue cracking, and swelling by solvents, and the electrical insulating properties of a vulcanized natural and/or synthetic rubber compound containing a filler or fillers are improved by the incorporation in the compound prior to vulcanization of one or more phenolic product(s) and one or more bifunctional aldehydiminic product(s) in a combined quantity of not more than 25 per cent by weight of the filler or fillers. The synthetic rubber may consist of a butadiene-styrene, a butadieneacrylonitrile, or an isobutylene-isoprene copolymer. The phenolic product(s) may comprise resorcinol either alone or in combination with hydroquinone. The or each aldehydiminic product, which also functions as a vulcanization accelerator, is preferably obtained by reacting a primary diamine with furfural in a molecular ratio of 1 : 2, e.g. difurfurylidene-hexamethylenediamine, difurfurylidene-di-beta-aminoethyl sulphide, difurfurylidene - p - phenylenediamine, or difurfurylidene - 1,5 - naphthylenediamine. The addition of the phenolic and aldehydiminic product(s) improves in particular the properties of natural and/or synthetic rubber compounds containing one or more lightcoloured filler(s), e.g. silicic acid, calcium silicate, or aluminium hydroxide, and is utilized for the making of vehicle tyres or for the insulation of electrical cables. In one example difurfurylidene-hexamethylene diamine is added to a vulcanizable composition including 80 parts by weight of natural rubber and 20 parts butadiene-styrene copolymer.ALSO:The resistances to abrasion, fatigue cracking, and swelling by solvents, and the electrical insulating properties of a vulcanized natural and/or synthetic rubber compound containing a filler or fillers are improved by the incorporation in the compound prior to vulcanization of one or more phenolic product(s) and one or more bifunctional aldehydiminic product(s) in a combined quantity of not more than 25 per cent by weight of the filler or fillers.

The addition of the phenolic and aldehydiminic product(s) improves in particular the properties of natural and/or synthetic rubber compounds containing one or more light coloured filler(s), and utilized for the making of vehicle tyres or for the insulation of electrical cables. In an example a composition is prepared, in parts by weight, of natural rubber 100, silicic acid 32, zinc oxide 5, benzothiazylcyclohexylsulphonamide 2, hexamethylenetetramine 0.5, phenyl - beta - naphthylamine 1, stearic acid 2, paraffin wax 1, sulphur 3.5, resorcinol 2.2, and difurfurylidene - hexamethylenediamine 1.2. The compound is vulcanized for 30 minutes at 134 DEG C. Other examples are described in which the silicic acid filler is replaced by either calcium silicate or aluminium hydroxide, whilst the aldehydiminic product may be difurfurylidene - p - phenylenediamine. In a further example the compound includes 80 parts natural rubber and 20 parts butadiene - styrene copolymer. |
