Heat and Oil Resistance of Compounds Based on Acrylate Rubber

Abstract

More stringent present-day requirements concerning the service characteristics of mechanical rubber goods has led to the expansion of the range of special-purpose synthetic rubbers becoming the most important direction of scientifi c and technical progress as regards the feedstock base for the production of mechanical rubber goods. These rubbers ensure increased durability of rubber products at high temperatures and on contact with different corrosive media. The aim of the present work was to investigate the resistance of acrylate rubber compounds previously developed by the authors to the action of oils at elevated temperatures.
