The second part of the adhesive is an amine curing agent. One effective example of the adhesive is formulated as follows: approximately 4 parts by weight of the bisphenol A epoxy resin is mixed per part of a carboxyl terminated butadiene acrylonitrile rubber and heated to 170.degree. C. At 160.degree. C., a catalyst of approximately 0.01 parts by weight of triphenyl phosphene per part of the rubber is added and the mixture stirred for one hour at 170.degree.-175.degree. C. to provide the reaction product.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 1983Date of Patent: October 9, 1984Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: David J. Crabtree, Elizabeth Y. Park
