Robert M. Shemenski, Sr. has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 4283460
    Abstract: The vulcanized, aged, adhesion of rubber to brass-coated steel cord is improved by the use of benzotriazole (BTA) and cyclohexylamineborate (CHAB). The BTA and CHAB are used alone or in combination. They are added directly to the surface of the cord or to the rubber immediately adjacent to the cord. BTA treatment will reduce surface contamination of the cord. CHAB will aid in improving aged adhesion.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 8, 1980
    Date of Patent: August 11, 1981
    Assignee: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company

  • Patent number: 4269877
    Abstract: The vulcanized aged adhesion of rubber to clean brass coated steel cord is improved by the use of benzotriazole (BTA) and/or a precipitation compound such as cyclohexylamine borate and/or an oxidation compound such as zinc chromate. These agents are added directly to the surface of the cord or to the rubber immediately adjacent to the cord. BTA treatment reduces surface degradation of the cord and the precipitation compound and oxidation compound aid in improving aged adhesion. Preferably the cord is cleaned in an acid dip, which can be used to deposit desired anions on the cord surface, prior to treatment.
