- FIG. 5 is a cross-setional view of a fiber reinforced elastomeric product formed with a fiber bundle of the type shown in FIGS. 3 or 4 in accordance with this invention.
- this difficulty in part stems from the completely smooth, rod-like surfaces of the glass fibers and in part from the fact that the glass fiber surfaces are highly hydrophilic in nature, thereby resulting in the formation of a thin, but tenacious film of moisture on the glass fiber surfaces almost immediately after they are formed which serves to destroy any bond, chemical or physical, which would otherwise be established between the glass fiber surfaces and the elastomeric material.
- FIG. 1 of the drawing depicts a fiber bundle-reinforced elastomeric product prepared in accordance with the concepts of the prior art.
- a plurality of fiber bundles 10 are molded between layers 12 and 14 of elastomeric material to cure and/or vulcanize the elastomeric material to securely anchor the fiber bundles to the elastomeric material.
- the interface 16 referred to above is formed between the elastomeric material immediately adjacent to the fiber bundles and the elastomeric material forming the bulk of the continuous phase 12 and 14 in which the fiber bundles are distributed.
- the overcuring or overvulcanization ofthe elastomeric material immediately adjacent to the fiber bundles is a result of the migration of low molecular weight components from the impregnant in the fiber bundles into the elastomeric material, to thereby trigger accelerators which are conventionally blended with the elastomeric material for activation during cure and/or vulcanization, and/or to thereby serve as accelerators in their own right.
- the elastomer-elastomer interface referred to above can be substantially minimized or eliminated with the result that the bonding relationship between the fiber bundles is significantly improved by providing the fiber bundles with at least a thin coating of a vulcanization retarder. It has been determined that the vulcanization retarder serves to moderate the rate of vulcanization and/or cure of the elastomeric material immediately adjacent to the fiber bundles with the result that a more uniform rate of vulcanization and/or cure takes place throughout the fiber bundleelastomeric composite.
- vulcanization retarders use can be made of a variety of materials useful for this purpose.

- the chemical nature of the fibers is not critical to the practice of the invention.
- EXAMPLE 1 This example illustrates the treatment of a glass fiber bundle impregnated with a resorcinol formaldehyde latex to form a coating of a vulcanization retarder on the surface of the bundle.
- a strand 18 of glass fibers which have been preferably, although not necessarily, sized in forming is passed over a guide roller 20 for passage downwardly into an impregnating bath 22 containing the following impregnating composition:
- the bundle is then turned under a pair of rollers 24 to effect a sharp bend in the bundle which operates to open the bundle to facilitate more complete penetration of the aqueous impregnating composition in the bundle of sized glass fibers for complete impregnation of the bundle.
- the impregnated bundle is then raised from the bath for passage through a roller or die 26 which operates to remove excess impregnating composition from the bundle and to work the impregnating composition into the bundle.
- the endless bundle is advanced over roller 28 into a drying oven 30, preferably in the form of an air drying oven maintained at a temperature above ambient temperature, and preferably within the range of l50-250 F. to accelerate removal of the aqueous diluent and to set the impregnant in situ in the fiber bundle. Drying will occur in relatively short time, generally ranging from 1-30 minutes depending somewhat on the temperature of drying.
- the impregnated bundle 32 is coated with a solution of one of the retarders of this invention dissolved in an inert solvent.
- Application of a coating may be made by passing the impregnated bundle 32 over a roller 34 which is constantly wet with the retarder solution from bath 36.
- a solution of N- nitrosodiphenylamine dissolved in acetone although it will be understood that any of a variety of suitable inert solvents can be used.
- bundle 10 is formed of a plurality of individual glass fibers 40 having optional size coating 42 on the surfaces thereof.
- the impregnant 44 which completely penetrates the bundle serves to separate the glass fibers each from the other and to form a unitary bundle structure.
- the N-nitrosodiphenylamine forms a thin coating 46 on the dried and impregnated bundle and is thus available to moderate the cure and/or vulcanization when the bundle is combined with elastomeric materials in the manufacture of glass fiber-reinforced elastomeric products.
- Example 2 The procedure of Example 1 is repeated using a plurality of steel fibers which have been previously coated with zinc to reduce corrosion.
- Introduction of the impregnant composition is made in an amount to impregnate with dry solids of l-25 percent by weight of the fiber system, and preferably -15 percent by weight.

- the foregoing impregnant composition can be used in the treatment of fibers of the type described above in accordance with the method described in Example EXAMPLE ll Melamine formaldehyde resin (63% 30% solids) N-nitrosophenylnaphthylamine 4% Water 66% EXAMPLE 13
- the impregnant used in this example is a polyepoxide formed of the condensation reaction product of bisphenol A and epichlorohydrin (Epon 728) marketed by Dow Chemical.
- an anchoring agent in the form of an organo silicon compound which serves to more securely anchor the fibers, and particularly glass fibers, to elastomeric materials when bundles of impregnated fibers are combined with elastomeric materials in the manufacture of fiber reinforced elastomeric products.
- an anchoring agent in the form of an organo silicon compound which serves to more securely anchor the fibers, and particularly glass fibers, to elastomeric materials when bundles of impregnated fibers are combined with elastomeric materials in the manufacture of fiber reinforced elastomeric products.
- the concepts of the present invention substantially minimize the problem of migration of these anchoring agents since the organo silicon compounds are reactive with the vulcanization retarders when the retarders are activated by heat during cure and/or vulcanization of an impregnated bundle in which the impregnant includes an anchoring agent to thereby prevent or minimize migration of the organo silicon compounds into the elastomeric continuous phase of the fiber reinforced elastomeric product.
- suitable anchoring agents which can be used in the practice of this invention are the organo silicons, their hydrolysis products and polymerization products (polysiloxane) of an organo silane having the formula:
- Z is a readily hydrolyzable group such as alkoxy having 1-4 carbon atoms (e.g., methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, etc.) or halogen, such as chlorine, n is an integer from 1 to 3, and R is hydrogen or an organic group in which at least one R group is an alkyl group having 1-10 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, etc.; alkenyl having 1-10 carbon atoms, such as vinyl, allyl, etc.; cycloalkyl having 4-8 carbon atoms, such as cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, etc.; aryl having 6-10 carbon atoms, such as phenyl, naphthyl, benzyl, etc.; alkoxy alkyl, such as methyloxyethyl, etc.; alkenylcarbonyloxyalkyl, such as carbonylpropylmethoxy, etc.; as well as the amino, epoxy,
- silanes are ethyltrichlorosilane, propyltrimethoxy silane, vinyl trichlorosilane, allyl triethoxy silane, cyclohexylethyltrimethoxy silane, phenyl 10 trichloro silane, phenyl dimethoxy silane, methacryloxypgopyltrimethoxy silane, gammaaminopropyltriethoxy silane, beta-aminovinyldiethoxy silane, N-(gamma-triethoxysilylpropyl)propylamine, gamma-aminoallyltriethoxy silane, paraaminophenyltriethoxy silane, N-(beta-aminoethyl ⁇ gamma-aminopropyltrimethoxy silane, gammachloropropyltrichloro silane, glycidoxy propyltrimethoxy silane, gly
- the organo silanes are generally present in the impregnant composition in an amount within the range of 0.1 to 5 percent by weight.
- impregnant compositions formulated to include such silanes may be illustrated by the following examples.
- EXAMPLE 14 Natural rubber latex-resorcinol 25% formaldehyde resin (38% solids-Lotol 5440") Gamma-aminopropyltriethoxy silane 1% N-nitrosodiphenylamine 6% Water 68% EXAMPLE 15 Vinyl pyridine-butadlene-styrene 30% terpolymer(4l% solids-Gentac”) 3,4-epoxycyclohexylethyl-trimethoxy 1.5% silane Phthalic anhydride 6.0% Tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide 4.0% Water 58.5%
- an anchoring agent When formulating an anchoring agent into the impregnant compositions in accordance with the concepts of the invention, it is frequently desirable to adjust the pH of the resulting impregnant composition to insure the stability of the system and prevent precipitation of the silane from the solution. For this purpose, it is frequently desirable to formulate the impregnant composition to include a quaternary ammonium hydroxide to adjust the pH to the alkaline side.
- compositions can be applied to any of the fiber systems of the types described above whereby the vulcanization retarder containing in the impregnant composition serves to moderate the rate of vulcanization when the impregnated bundle is combined with elastomeric material in the manufacture of fiber reinforced elastomeric products.
- the use of such anchoring agent is particularly desirable in the case of glass fiberreinforced elastomeric products since it is believed that the anchoring agents of the type described serve to intertie the impregnated bundle with the elastomeric material with which the bundle is combined.
- the elastomeric material with which the fiber bundle is combined will constitute a continuous phase, and it is believed that the tie-in between the impregnated bundles of fibers and the elastomeric material forming the continuous phase will occur primarily during cure or vulcanization of the elastomeric material during fabrication of the fiber reinforced elastomeric product.
- the bundles are admixed with the elastomeric material or otherwise laid down in the desired arrangement.
- the combination of the impregnated bundle and the elastomeric material or system is achieved in a conventional manner by molding or curing under heat and compression of the elastomeric material admixed with conventional accelerators, v'ulcanizing agents and/or other conventional processing aids in combination with the impregnated bundle whereby the bundle becomes securely integrated with the elastomeric material in the resultant product without the formation of the undesired elastomer-elastomer interface described above which serves to weaken the overall bond otherwise established between the impregnated fiber bundle and the elastomeric material when it is combined.
- the glass fiber bundles are thus integrated in the elastomeric material 11 forming the continuous phase without the formation of the elastomer-elastomer interface since the vulcanization retarders of this invention serve to moderate the rate of vulcanization of the elastomeric material immediately adjacent to the fiber bundles 10.
- the concepts of the present invention are applicable to strands formed of a plurality of individual glass fiber filaments, and to'cords formed of a plurality of strands which have been assembled or twisted together. Strands forming such cords may have a twist, a reverse twist or no twist at all in accordance with well known technology in the manufacture of glass fibers. In addition, the concepts of the invention are also applicable I to woven and non-woven fabrics formed from cords of the type described above.
