The difference of butyl rubber and butadiene styrene rubber? By Butyl Rubber Sheets - www.dongrubber.com, [email protected], Date: Sep.18.06 Butyl rubber sheets is a kind of synthetic rubber which is a copolymer of Isobutylene and a small amount of isoprene copolymer, short for IIR. Butyl rubber sheeting has good chemical stability and thermal stability, the most prominent character is the air tightness and water tightness. Its air transmittance is only about 1/7 of the natural rubber, 1/5 of the styrene-butadiene rubber. Meanwhile its transmittance of steam is 1/200 of the natural rubber, and 1/140 of the styrene-butadiene rubber. Thus IIR is mainly used in the manufacture of tires, inner tubes, steam pipe, water dam and bottom gasket and other rubber products. Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) is one of the biggest general synthetic rubber varieties, and is also among the first rubber to realize industrialization production. Styrene butadiene rubber sheet is a random copolymer of butadiene and styrene. Its physical performance, processing performance and product performance is close to those of natural rubber sheets, and some properties such as wear resistance, heat resistance, ageing resistance and curing rate are more excellent than natural rubber sheeting, SBR can be used with a variety of natural rubber sheets and synthetic rubbers, widely applied to tires, tape, rubber hose, wire and cable, medical instruments and various kinds of rubber products production and other fields.

Vulcanization & Accelerators
Vulcanization & Accelerators Vulcanization is a cross linking process in which individual molecules of rubber (polymer) are converted into a three dimensional network of interconnected (polymer) chains through chemical cross links(of sulfur). The vulcanization process was discovered in 1839 and the individuals responsible for this discovery were Charles Goodyear in USA and Thomas Hancock in England. Both discovered the use of Sulfur and White Lead as a vulcanization system for Natural Rubber. This discovery was a major technological breakthrough for the advancement of the world economy. Vulcanization of rubbers by sulfur alone is an extremely slow and inefficient process. The chemical reaction between sulfur and the Rubber Hydrocarbon occurs mainly at the C = C (double bonds) and each crosslink requires 40 to 55 sulphur atoms (in the absence of accelerator). The process takes around 6 hours at 140°C for completion, which is uneconomical by any production standards. The vulcanizates thus produced are extremely prone to oxidative degradation and do not possess adequate mechanical properties for practical rubber applications. These limitations were overcome through inventions of accelerators which subsequently became a part of rubber compounding formulations as well as subjects of further R&D. Following is the summary of events which led to the progress of ‘Accelerated Sulfur Vulcanization'.

Exxon™ Butyl Rubber Innertube Technology Manual
Exxon™ butyl rubber Exxon™ butyl rubber innertube technology manual Country name(s) 2 - Exxon™ butyl rubber innertube technology manual Exxon™ butyl rubber innertube technology manual - 3 Abstract Many bias and radial tires have innertubes. Radial truck tube-type tires are particularly common, and in many instances, such as in severe service, off-road applications, are preferred over tubeless radial tire constructions. The technology requirements for tubes for such tires is, in many respects, equally demanding when compared to that for the tire and wheel in the assembly. This manual has been prepared to describe how butyl rubber is important in meeting the demanding performance requirements of tire innertubes. Representative innertube compound formulations and compound properties are discussed along with typical processing guidelines of the compound in the manufacture of innertubes. Chlorobutyl rubber based compound formulations are also used in innertubes. Such innertubes show good heat resistance, durability, allow greater flexibility in compounding, and process equally well as regular butyl rubber tube compounds. An extensive discussion of bicycle tire innertubes has been included. Service conditions can range from simple commuting and recreation to high speed competitive sporting applications. Like automobile and truck tire innertubes, tubes for bicycle tires can thus have demanding performance requirements. Guidelines on troubleshooting provide a checklist for the factory process engineer to enhance manufacturing efficiency, high

The 1961 tests yielded significant results primarily because of the use of a new torque meter device to measure the friction forces. The tests were run with four different types of tires including one tire with the recently developed butyl rubber tread which provided high hysteresis or energy losses and high coefficients of friction on wet pavements. In view of the improved accuracy obtained with the new torque meter, and the high friction values obtained in the exploratory tests with the butyl rubber tire, a program of tests was carried out in 1962. Skid resistance measurements were made on a wide variety of pavement surfaces with two different brands of butyl rubber tires, and also with the 1958 and 1961 pavement test standard tires. Before 1961, it was generally assumed that the only way to obtain significant improvement in the skid resistance of wet pavements was by the selection of aggregate types and pavement construction methods and controls, and/or by de-slicking treatments which had been established by laboratory and field tests. Studies were conducted by California in 1961, by the British Road Research Laboratory, and by Dr. Tabor of Cambridge University, England.

Model Vulcanization Systems for Butyl Rubber and Halobutyl Rubber Manual
Exxon™ butyl and halobutyl rubber Model vulcanization systems for butyl rubber and halobutyl rubber manual Country name(s) 2 - Model vulcanization systems for butyl rubber and halobutyl rubber manual Model vulcanization systems for butyl rubber and halobutyl rubber manual - 3 Abstract The vulcanization of isobutylene-co-isoprene rubber (IIR), brominated isobutylene-co-isoprene rubber (BIIR), chlorinated isobutylene-co-isoprene rubber (CIIR), and brominated isobutylene-co-para-methylstyrene elastomer (BIMSM) differs from that of general-purpose rubbers (GPR). Butyl rubber has approximately 2% unsaturation in the backbone. Halobutyl rubber (BIIR and CIIR) incorporates the butyl backbone with either bromine or chlorine, which significantly increases the chemical reactivity of the isoprenyl units located in the butyl backbone. Similarly, in BIMSM the bromine atom is bonded to the para-methylstyrene (PMS) group, thus affording the completely saturated polymer backbone a site of chemical reactivity. Utilization of the unique attributes of butyl rubber and halobutyl rubbers with their minimal backbone unsaturation and of BIMSM elastomers with no backbone unsaturation is found in many areas of industry. These properties are excellent vapor impermeation, resistance to heat degradation, and improved chemical resistance as compared to general-purpose rubbers. However, this low amount of reactivity requires special consideration to vulcanize these isobutylene-based polymers. The type of vulcanization system selected is a function of the composite structure in which it is used, and the cured product performance requirements. Therefore, vulcanization systems vary and may include an accelerator package along with resins, zinc oxide, zinc oxide and sulfur, and quinoid systems. This review will discuss the types and selection of appropriate vulcanization systems for isobutylene-based elastomers.

Toyo Tire Talk
TOYO TIRE TALK Subject: Rubber Compound ··· Polymers As you will all know well, a tire is mainly made of "rubber" and cords. In the past, we have talked about the important functions of cords. Therefore, this time we would like to talk about the most important material in tires "rubber". When we talk about rubber, we generally mean the rubber compound to be exact. The compound is made by mixing polymer, reinforcement material, softener and various chemicals. Different characteristics are required for every type of tire or tire part. For example, a TBR tire requires heat, wear and cut resistance for the tread rubber, while the sidewall requires good weather resistance. We therefore need many kinds of rubber compounds. In this chapter, we'll talk about polymers, their types, characteristics and uses, that all perform very important functions. The main polymers used for tires are as follows : 1) Natural Rubber (NR) 2) Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) 3) Butadiene Rubber (BR) 4) Isoprene Rubber (IR) 5) Halogenated Butyl Rubber All of the above are synthetic rubber except Natural Rubber of course. 1) Natural Rubber (NR) Characteristics NR is made from latex taken from rubber Advantage Disadvantage trees, mainly grown in Southeast Asia. Tear Strength Uniformity of quality Although there are now various kinds of Wear Resistance Aging Resistance synthetic rubber available, Natural Rubber Impact Resilience Fatigue Resistance is still used extensively in tires.
