Elastomers polyamide

The thermoplastic elastomer polyamides have found use in conveyor and drive belts, ski and soccer shoe soles, computer keyboard pads, silent gears in audio and video recorders and cameras, and thin film for medical applications. [Pg.528]

Thermoplastic elastomers are most commonly formulated from elastomeric polyurethane or block copolymers of polystyrene-elastomer, polyamide-elastomer, or polyether-elastomer bases. Thermoplastic elastomers are provided as a raw material in pelletized form for subsequent compounding. The internal domain structure that is required for thermoplastic-elastomeric performance has been established by specific considerations of blending and structural-chemical interactions. In compounding operations, specific temperature ranges are required to assure that phase separation does not occur in the TPE base polymer. [Pg.9]

Zinc borate can be used as a fire retardant in PVC, polyolefins, elastomers, polyamides, and epoxy resins. In hal( en-containing systems, it is used in conjunction with antimony oxide, while in halogen-free systems it is normally used in conjunction with other FRs such as aluminum trihydrate, magnesium hydroxide, or red phosphorus. In a small number of specific applications, zinc borate can be used alone. [Pg.329]

With halogen-containing systems, zinc borate can partially or completely replace the antimony synergist in PVC, notably wire and cable, wallcoverings, roof membranes and tarpaulins. It is also effective in polyolefins, elastomers, polyamides and epoxy polymers while, in halogen-free systems, it can be used in conjunction with alumina trihydrate, magnesium hydroxide or red phosphorus.

Hot-melt adhesives are 100% solids that, in the broadest sense, include all thermoplastic polymers. Polymers that are primarily used as hot-melt adhesives include ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA), polyvinyl acetates (PVA), polyethylene (PE), amorphous polypropylene, block copolymers (thermoplastic elastomers), polyamides, and polyesters. The oldest hot-melt adhesive, which has been in use since early times, is sealing wax. In principle, glutins and glue jellies also may be regarded as hot-melt adhesives. However, modern hot-melt adhesives are primarily synthetic products. The simplest hot-melt adhesives are rosin-wax mixtures. But these products have limited strength and thermal stability. [Pg.19]

EPI is highly reactive with polyhydric phenols such as bisphenol A and forms glycidyls with many compounds containing active hydrogens. Epichlorohydrin (ECH) is used primarily in the manufacture of epoxy resins and synthetic glycerol. The main other uses include the production of epichlorohydrin elastomers, polyamide-epichlorohydrin resins, water treatment chemicals, and a variety of glycidyl derivatives. [Pg.270]

Polyamide 11 resistance to oils, hydraulic fluids, heating oil, and other fuels is excellent. Table 5.89 and Figure 5.335 left. Compared to polyester-based thermoplastic elastomers, polyamide 11 exhibits better mechanical properties as well as better dimensional stability because of its low moisture absorption. This is especially important for supply lines that transport these liquids. PA 11 also exhibits low permeability for fuels. [Pg.769]

Film adhesives They resemble hot melts and heat-activated adhesives in the sense that heat is used for activation with a subsequent cure schedule, which may include additional heat application under pressure. They may contain lightweight fabrics, nylon, polyester, glass mats in the form of carrier cloth. Thus, the adhesive thickness may be controlled uniformly. Epoxies, phenolics, nitrile-elastomers, polyamides, PVC, polyvinyl butyl, ethylene-carbolic acid copolymers are available in film form with or without carrier cloths. [Pg.272]
