The Systematic Control of Rubber to Metal Adhesion in the Wire and Cable Industry

摘要

There are many elements common to adhesive bonding in both the mechanical molded goods industry and the wire and cable industry. Some factors are listed about compounding. The rate of cure is not a problem, but heat transfer may be. Cleanliness of the metal surfaces is of vital importance and that more should be learned about the behavior of wet adhesive when it meets hot, moving rubber under high pressure. If other factors can be held constant, adhesion level can be controlled by selection and dilution of the adhesive.
