    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel polymer, an adhesive composition including the same, and a rubber reinforcing material treated with the same, and more particularly to an organic polysiloxane including a certain repeating unit, an adhesive composition including the same, and a rubber reinforcing material treated with the same. Because the organic polysiloxane and the adhesive composition including the same is superior in reactivity to a hydroxyl group, an amide group, or an amine group, and has high thermal resistance and low stiffness, the composition is preferably used for surface-treating a rubber reinforcing material such as a tire cord and make it possible to provide a rubber reinforcing material such as a tire cord having good properties.

  • Publication number: 20120083551
    Abstract: Telechelic resins with reactive end groups (e.g., epoxy phosphate and epoxy ester) were synthesized using bisphenol-A (BPA) epoxide. The bisphenol-A based epoxide and the telechelic resins were all modified with tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) oligomers to produce epoxide/polysilicate (organic/inorganic) hybrid systems. The modified epoxides were thermally cured with a melamine-formaldehyde resin, cast on steel substrates and salt spray analysis revealed that the inorganically modified epoxides provided improvement over unmodified epoxide resins with respect to both corrosion resistance and adhesion to steel substrates.
