Banbury type mixer

The processing methods for siHcone mbber are similar to those used in the natural mbber industry (59,369—371). Polymer gum stock and fillers are compounded in a dough or Banbury-type mixer. Catalysts are added and additional compounding is completed on water-cooled roU mills. For small batches, the entire process can be carried out on a two-roU mill. Heat-cured siHcone mbber is commercially available as gum stock, reinforced gum, partially filled gum, uncatalyzed compounds, dispersions, and catalyzed compounds. The latter is ready for use without additional processing. Before being used, sihcone mbber is often freshened, ie, the compound is freshly worked on a mbber mill until it is a smooth continuous sheet. The freshening process eliminates the stmcturing problems associated with polymer—filler interactions. [Pg.53]

Rubber blends with cure rate mismatch is a burning issue for elastomer sandwich products. For example, in a conveyor belt composite structure there is always a combination of two to three special purpose rubbers and, depending on the rubber composition, the curatives are different. Hence, those composite rubber formulations need special processing and formulation to avoid a gross dissimilarity in their cure rate. Recent research in this area indicated that the modification of one or more rubbers with the same cure sites would be a possible solution. Thus, chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSP) rubber was modified in laboratory scale with 10 wt% of 93% active meta-phenylene bismaleimide (BMI) and 0.5 wt% of dimethyl-di-(/ r/-butyl-peroxy) hexane (catalyst). Mixing was carried out in an oil heated Banbury-type mixer at 150-160°C. The addition of a catalyst was very critical. After 2 min high-shear dispersive melt mix-... [Pg.465]

Carbon-black-filled rubber compounds are usually produced on Banbury-type mixers, while conductive thermoplastics are preferably produced on twin-screw extruders. Unlike other filled compounds or polymer blends it is essential to adhere very precisely to the carbon-black concentration and the production parameters, since a very delicate balancing act is usually required to stay on the tight-rope of optimum composition and avoid falling into the pits of insufficient conductivity, inadequate mechanical properties or sharply increased viscosity. [Pg.509]

In Banbury-type mixers, the rotors run at different speeds, while in intermix mixers the rotor speeds are equal but the kneading action between the thicker portion of one rotor and the thinner portion of the other produces a frictional effect. [Pg.252]

To improve dyeability, flexibility, and toughness of isotactic polypropylene, PP, it was compounded in a Banbury-type mixer with ethylene-vinyl acetate, 7 wt% EVAc. Several other ethylene copolymers were also used. In Miliprint patent, EVAc or ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer, 18-32 wt% EVAc or EEA, was found to improve impact strength, elongation, and low brittleness temperature of PP. hi Firestone patent, linear polybutadiene, BR, was used. The Mitsubishi patent disclosed improvements of PP impact strength properties by blending it with 0.5-25 wt% ethylene-aliphatic esters, e.g., EVAc... [Pg.1669]

A high intensity mixer commonly used in the plastic and rubber industry is the Banbury type mixer. The figure eight shaped chamber with the spiral lobed rotors creates a complex, transient flow. This flow is ideal for mixing different polymers into a homogenous blend, but makes analysis extremely difficult. In the Banbury... [Pg.871]

As they simulated the flow in a Banbury type mixer, Gramann and Osswald [11] were able to track particles throughout the processes. Figure 12.3 shows the deformation that can take place as the rotors turn. [Pg.873]

The processing methods for silicone rubber are similar to those used for natural rubber (1,476-478). Polymer gum stock and fillers are compoimded in a dough or Banbury-type mixer. Catalysts are added and additional compoimding is completed on water-cooled roll mills. For small batches, the entire process can be carried out on a two-roll mill. [Pg.7606]
