Effect of Testing Rate on Adhesion Properties of Benzoyl-Peroxide-Cured ENR 25/NBR Blend Adhesive Using Gum Rosin and Coumarone-Indene Resin as Tackifiers
Dependence of adhesion properties of benzoyl-peroxide-cured epoxidized natural rubber (ENR 25)/acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) blend adhesive on testing rate was systematically studied. Coumarone-indene resin and gum rosin were used as tackifiers. Toluene was used as solvent throughout the study. The SHEEN hand coater was used to coat the adhesive on polyethylene terephthalate at 30 and 120 mu m coating thickness. The adhesion properties were measured by a Lloyd adhesion tester operating at different rates of testing. Results showed that the loop tack, peel strength, and shear strength increased with increasing testing rate, an observation that was attributed to the viscoelastic nature of adhesive. In all cases, the adhesion properties of the adhesives also increased with increasing coating thickness.
