  • Patent number: 10151393
    Abstract: A metal gasket material plate includes a sealing layer formed by layering a chemical coating layer, an adhesive layer, and a rubber coating layer in this order on at least one side of a metal plate. The chemical coating layer is formed by a thermosetting surface preparation agent including inorganic compound particles and a metal alkoxide compound. The adhesive layer is formed by an adhesive including an epoxy compound and an anti-corrosive pigment. The rubber coating layer is formed by a rubber agent including rubber.

  • Publication number: 20050221052
    Abstract: A metal gasket material plate has improved adhesion of a rubber layer to a metal plate by use of an adhesive layer, so as to prevent the rubber layer from happening delamination of the metal plate and to provide a chromium-free material plate in consideration of adverse effects on the environment and a human body. In a laminated metal gasket material plate provided with a rubber layer on a metal plate by use of an adhesive layer, the metal gasket material plate includes silane-based chemical conversion coating being formed between a surface of the metal plate and the adhesive layer by applying a silane coupling agent containing any of an epoxy group, a mercapto group, and an amino group as a functional group. Here, the adhesive layer is made of a phenol resin-based adhesive, and the rubber layer is made of an NBR-based rubber mixture.

  • Patent number: 6703078
    Abstract: There is provided a non-chromium treated material in which peeling resistance between a metal plate and a rubber layer via a primer layer and a bond layer, which is decreased by fretting and antifreeze liquid, can be improved, the rubber layer is less liable to peel from the metal plate, and the material has little effect on the environment and human body. In a metal gasket raw material plate 1 of a laminated form in which a rubber layer 5 is provided on a stainless steel plate 2 via a bonding layer 4, a primer layer 3 of a silica-alumina condensate is formed on the surface of the stainless steel plate 2.

  • Patent number: 6607830
    Abstract: The composite material for a metal gasket includes a metal plate; a rubber layer fixed on the surface of the metal plate; and a solid lubricant layer fixed on the rubber layer. The solid lubricant layer contains polytetrafluoroethylene and a resin as main components, and has a friction coefficient equal to 0.15 or lower. Thus, the seal durability of the metal gasket is improved by effectively preventing fretting wear.

  • Patent number: 5628518
    Abstract: A metal gasket assembly for a cylinder head includes a pair of elastic metal substrates each having an outer shape which conforms with the outer shape of the gasket assembly, cylinder openings corresponding to cylinders in the cylinder head, a peripheral region surrounding the cylinder opening, which may be greater in thickness than remaining region of the relevant substrate, and a bead in the peripheral region. The substrates are superimposed with each other with top portions of the beads of the substrates in abutment with each other. A by-plate may be arranged between the substrates and has an increased thickness in its peripheral region which surrounds the cylinder opening and which is in direct abutment with the top portions of the beads in the substrates.
