ON VULCANIZATION OF ELASTOMERS IN CONTACT WITH METALS WHEN IN COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Complex physical and chemical processes were observed in the region of adhesional contacts when composite materials were being prepared from metals and elastomers. The rate of these processes appeared to be dependent on the origin of the metallic substrate used. The kinetics of contact oxidation as well as that of bonding of an elastomer to a metal was analyzed. The catalysis of oxidative transformation in rubbers were found to be due to transfer, in the coating bulk, of metal containing compounds, resulting from interaction of thermally oxidative degradation products of rubber macromolecules and the metal substrate. Data were obtained on the effect of the metallic substrate and on the kinetics of rubber blends vulcanized with sulphur. The components of the vulcanizing group were observed to participate in transfer of the substrate metal in the elastomer. The role of the transferred compounds in vulcanization activation was understood.
