Abstract
A production method for a glass run of EPDM material with a urethane slip layer and/or a flocked layer on its glass sliding area, whereby a primer layer for a urethane slip layer or a flocked layer can be co-extruded together with a glass run substrate of EPDM material. The primer layer is a polymer blend of NBR 40-80%, EPDM 20-60%, and SBR 0-35% by weight, respectively. Solventless urethane coating material is applied on each primer layer to form a urethane coat. Flocking is provided only on flocked layer area. The urethane coat is cured during vulcanization of the glass run substrate, and in this way a urethane slip layer and a flocking layer can be formed.
Claims2
A method of producing a glass run substrate of ethylene-1-olefin-nonconjugated diene rubber along with a urethane slip layer on a glass sliding area of said glass run substrate which comprises:
- co-extruding said glass run substrate with a primer layer on the glass sliding area of the glass run substrate, said primer layer comprising a polymer blend of nitrile rubber 40-80%, ethylene-1-olefin-nonconjugated diene rubber 20-60% and aromatic vinyl compound diene rubber 0-35% weight, respectively;
- applying a solventless urethane coating material on said primer layer immediately after said co-extruding to form a urethane coat;
- vulcanizing said glass run substrate and simultaneously curing said urethane coat thereby forming said urethane slip layer.
