Sn. Lawandy et al., USE OF AN ALIPHATIC HYDROCARBON TO IMPROVE ADHESION IN BUTYL RUBBER-PROOFED POLYESTER FABRIC, Journal of adhesion science and technology, 11(12), 1997, pp. 1577-1587
An aliphatic hydrocarbon resin (Escoraze) was used as an additive in f
our bonding systems. These systems were based on (i) resorcinol, (ii)
o-aminophenol, (iii) m-aminophenol, and (iv) m-phenylene diamine. Esco
raze caused a significant additional adhesion force between the butyl
rubber and the polyester fabric. The rubber-proofed fabric was subject
ed to an ionizing radiation. This led to better adhesion properties of
the product. The permeability, the dielectric constant, and the elect
rical resistivity of the rubber-proofed fabric were measured.
