Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A method of forming a rubber-ceramic coating on a metal surface. A rubber coat is applied to the metal surface and heated to a temperature of about 100°F.
plurality of discrete ceramic bodies are positioned on the rubber surface. The ceramic bodies are then pressed into the rubber coat while maintaining the temperature at a range in which the rubber will not cure.

Description

RUBBER-CERAMIC COMPOSITION
This invention relate~ to a method of producing ceramic and rubber articles.

Articles made of a composition of rubber and ceramic are known. They combine the virtues of ceramics, with their great wear resistance, with the adhesiveness and bonding ability of rubber.

A disadvantage in ceramics i9 that they are brittle but this disadvantage i~ overcome by as~ociating the ceramic with rubber. However, in certain heavy duty circumstances, where hard use is encountered, either hy virtue of high vibration ~or contact with highly abra~ive materials and the like, problems are still encountered in that the bond of the rubber to the ceramic i8 not suf-ficiently strong to withstand the applied forces.

This is particularly ~o in mining machinery generally and, in particular, in pump liner~, cyclone parts, pipes and hoses.

Example~ of the prior art known to applicant include~ the United States patents 3,252,612 to Von ~yhre; 4,591~535 ~e Mizuhara; 2,128,635 to Hale and 4,1~4,000 to Denman.

O the above, Von Myhre dl~clo~e~ a aer~mic arkicle having an impaa~-ab90rbing rubber layer ~ormed on the ceramic ~ubstrate and~a proteative metal layer covering the rubber layer. In manufacturing this article the ceramic portion is glazed and then dipped into a bath of rubber, which adheres to the treated sur~ace. The rubber layer i8 then impreqnated with a metallic pigment and the entire artiale is plated with a metal.

Mizuhara teache~ a method o~ brazing ceramics u~ing active brazing alloys and i8 o interest or it~

~ 3-~?7 0 ~-description of a method of bonding ceramic to metal using a brazing alloy.

Denman discloses a coupling device used for securing glass to metal using a thermal plastic strip which is heated between 300 to 500F to create an adhesive surface that contacts the glass.

Hale teaches a method of bonding rubber to ceramic or metal articles~

All of the above display certain disadvantages and the present invention seeks to provide a method of improving the bond between rubber and ceramic to produce a product of particular value in heavy duty use.

Accordingly the invention provides a method of foxming a rubber-ceramic coating on a metal surface 15 comprising applying a rubber coat to the metal sur~ace; ``
heating the rubber coat to a temperature of about 100F;
positioning a plurality o~ discrete ceramic bodies on the rubber sur~ace; pressing the ceramic bodies into the rubber coat while maintaining the temperature at a xange in which the rubber does not cure and heatin~ the product to cure the product.

A~pects o~ the invention are illustrated in the drawings, on which:
2S Figuxe 1 i~ a secti~n through an apparatus use~ul in aarrying out thelmethod o~ the present invention; andi Figure 2 i8 a section on the line 2-2 o~ Figure l.

The drawings show an apparatus comprising a mold member 2 able to position ceramic tiles 4 in a metal body 6 coated with a rubber coating 8.

The method is carried out as follows.

!
.

~ 33~7 ~-All metal to be protected according to the present invention is sandblasted to white metal. Primer glue, for example Chemlok No. 220T~ is applied to the metal and a rubber primer, for example Chemlok TY-PLY~ is applied to the metal 6. Primers, for example Chemlok AP-134~H followed by Chemlok 250TM are applied to the ceramic tiles 4 and the rubber coating 8 is pre-heated to 100F.

~ he ceramic tiles 4 are coated with a solution of rubber dissolved in toluene and placed in position on the outer surface of the rubber. The rubber is maintained at a temperature of 100F while the ceramics are compressed into the rubber with mold member 2 or a hydraulic pres~.
Time is allowed for the rubber to flow between the tiles 4 to create the component according to the pre~ent invention.

If a mold is used, as shown in Figure 1, to compress the ceramic tile~ 4 into the rubber, the rubber is bonded to the metal or other surface before being imbedded with aeramic~. If a hydraulic press i9 used to compress the cerami¢ tiles 4 into the ruhbex 8, the composition is bonded to the metal or other surface.

Finally, ~he pxoduct i~ ~team aured in an autoalave.

It should be noted that the aeramic tiles mu~t not be overheated, that ls they should not be at a temperature greate~ than lOO~F for more than a hal~ hour, a~ter the primer~has bèen applied, ba~ore the curing process. Furthermore even pressure must be maintained aaro~s all aeramic tiles until those tiles have been compre~sed into the rubber and the pressure should be maintained during curing if at all possible.
!

:`, , 1 33~702 In general when the ceramic tiles are to be used in contact with particles smaller than 200 mesh the ceramic may be based on alumina.

The present invention, in addition to providing a new product, can also be used to repair existing products. Provided the component has a rubber layer greater than ~" thick a half inch of rubber may be ground out in order to allow room for a composition according to the pre~ent invention. Then the ~teps set out above are followed starting with the application of primer to the ceramic tiles.

In test~ conducted the present invention ha~
produced article~ that are extremely strong in their resistance to wear and vibration.
