method for the treatment of a stainless stahlgegenstandes to improve its adhesion to a gummizusammensetzung

摘要

A process for the surface treatment of a steel substrate enabling its adhesion to a rubber-contg. compsn. which has the following characteristics: (a) the substrate is a stainless steel of compsn., 0.02-0.2% C; 3-20% Ni, and 12-28% Cr, the sum of Ni and Cr being at least 20-35%, the structure comprising at least 20% (vol) martensite and deficient (or less than 80%) in austenite; and (b) a silane is deposited on the surface before contacting with the rubber-contg. compsn.. Also claimed are manufactured rubber-based articles contg. the coated steel reinforcements esp. rubber tyres.
