Abstract
A textile fabric composite comprised of a cord or fabric and an adhesive coating thereon formed by the application of an aqueous emulsion composition, said composition is comprised of the emulsion polymerization product of a monomer mixture of butadiene and either (a) glycidyl methacrylate and monomeric amide or (b) styrene, 2-vinyl pyridine and monomeric amide. The invention further relates to a composite, such as a pneumatic rubber tire reinforced with such fabric composite. The invention additionally relates to said emulsion composition used for the coating of the said fabric composite.
Claims9
A textile fabric composite comprised of (A) a cord or fabric thereof composed of fibers selected from at least one of nylon, polyester or aramid and (B) an adhesive coating thereon formed by the steps of (1) applying an aqueous emulsion composition coating to said fabric and (2) drying the coated fabric, wherein said aqueous emulsion composition is comprised of (a) the emulsion polymerization product of monomers comprised of (i) about 60 to about 95 parts by weight butadiene, (ii) about 5 to about 40 parts by weight glycidyl methacrylate and (iii) about 0.5 to about 10 parts by weight monomeric amide or (b) the emulsion polymerization product of (i) about 50 to about 90 parts by weight butadiene, (ii) about 0 to about 25 parts by weight styrene, (iii) about 5 to about 25 parts by weight 2-vinyl pyridine and (iv) about 0.5 to 10 parts by weight monomeric amide;
- wherein said monomeric amide is selected from at least one of N-(4-anilinophenyl)methacrylamide or N-(4-anilinophenyl)acrylamide.
