Patent number: 4341667Abstract: The green strength of compositions containing elastomers and/or up to 100 percent of reclaimed rubber is improved by the addition of crystalline or semi-crystalline butene polymers selected from the group consisting of polybutene and interpolymers made from 1-butene with at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of alpha-olefins, non-conjugated dienes, and non-conjugated polyenes. Although reclaimed rubbers are utilized, an unexpected increase in green strength of an unvulcanized blend is obtained. The reclaimed rubbers utilized in the blend may be those which have been devulcanized by mechanical energy, heat, and/or chemical agents. Additionally and preferably, the rubbers may be reclaimed through the use of microwave energy.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 1980Date of Patent: July 27, 1982Assignee: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber CompanyInventors: Joginder Lal, Sandra J. Walters

Patent number: 4335033Abstract: An eraser based on polyvinyl chloride having particles of a crosslinked polymeric natural or synthetic rubber embedded in the polyvinyl chloride structure. Such erasers have high strength and good aging resistance. Additionally, conventional softeners in the eraser do not undergo significant migration and consequently, the eraser does not smudge. A process for manufacturing the eraser is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 1979Date of Patent: June 15, 1982Assignee: J. S. StaedtlerInventor: Werner Handl
