  • Method for bonding elastomers to metals
    Patent number: 4396450
    Abstract: Environmental resistance of rubber-metal bonded assemblies is significantly improved by a process comprising treating such substrates in a "low temperature" plasma comprising at least one sulfur-containing reactive monomer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 1981
    Date of Patent: August 2, 1983
    Assignee: Lord Corporation
    Inventors: Donald R. Blenner, Herman V. Boenig
  • Method for bonding elastomers to metals
    Patent number: 4374694
    Abstract: Environmental resistance of rubber-metal bonded assemblies is significantly improved by a process comprising treating such substrates in a "low temperature" plasma comprising at least one 1,2-oxirane reactive monomer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 1981
    Date of Patent: February 22, 1983
    Assignee: Lord Corporation
    Inventors: Donald R. Blenner, Herman V. Boenig
  • Method for bonding silicone elastomers to metal substrates
    Patent number: 4366184
    Abstract: Adhesion of silicone elastomers to metal substrates, especially zinc phosphatized metal substrates, is significantly improved by exposing the substrate to a plasma comprising at least one organosilicon compound. In a preferred embodiment, the plasma-treated substrates are soaked in gaseous organosilicon monomer compound.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 1981
    Date of Patent: December 28, 1982
    Assignee: Lord Corporation
    Inventors: Robert A. Auerbach, Herman V. Boenig
  • Method for bonding elastomers to steel
    Patent number: 4349403
    Abstract: Adhesion and environmental resistance of rubber-metal assemblies is significantly improved by the use of metal substrates which have been nitrided at least in the bond area and subsequently exposed to a non-reactive gas, such as argon, prior to applying the adhesive.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 16, 1981
    Date of Patent: September 14, 1982
    Assignee: Lord Corporation
    Inventors: Donald R. Blenner, Herman V. Boenig
  • Method for bonding silicone elastomers to metal substrates
    Patent number: 4348426
    Abstract: Adhesion of silicone elastomers to metal substrates, especially zinc phosphatized metal substrates, is significantly improved by exposing the substrate to a glow discharge plasma selected from the group consisting of at least one inert gas, at least one organosilicon compound or a combination thereof, prior to the application of any adhesive materials to such substrates.
