Role of Amines in Adhesion of Polybutadiene to Glass Substrates. IV. The Effect of Amine Structure and Concentration on the Strength of Adhesion.

摘要

An attempt to elucidate the role of amines in general, and of 3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane in particular, has been made through a study of the title subject by several different approaches. This paper describes the effect of amine structure and concentration on the strength of adhesion of peroxide cured polybutadiene to a glass surface. It demonstrates that adhesion of polybutadiene to glass surfaces is enhanced by incorporation of small amounts of amines into the elastomer. An 80-fold increase in the work of adhesion was observed in the presence of 3-aminopropyltrimethyoxysilane. The results are interpreted in terms of information reported in previous papers in this series.
