Description
2 ~
This invention relates to rubber compositions, and in particular to synthetic rubber compositions for use in gas masks and other items requiring CW agent penetration resistance.
Natural rubber has been the choice of rubber chemists for gas mask facepieces since the introduction of respiratory protecting gas masks towards the end of World War I. It has many advantages over synthetic elastomers for facepiece use including comfort, high resiliency, high strength, easy processing and moulding, non-dermatitic properties and good low temperature flexibility. HowevPr as protective equipment develops and improves, the materials they are made fxom require an ever increasing performance. With the advent of new mask designs some of the properties of the material require improvement. For example, it is highly desirable to maximize the Modulus 500~ to the range of 900-1600 psi, while keeping the Permanent Set at 500~
below about 12%. With this in mind, applicant has concentrated on providiny an improved rubbar composition for ~acepiece use that would exhibit such improved properties. Various synthetia rubb~r ~ormulations were evaluated. The material studies were based upon thc knowledge that when the flnal material was cho~cn it would bs susceptible to the present commercial injection moulding operation now used in industry.
The basic property which in~luences the material selection is its impermeability to chemical warfare (CW) agents, specifically H and GB agents. The ~tandard selected for comparison was twenty-four (24) hour proteation against H-agent :' . , ' .
.. . - ~, ~ ., ::: . .
(dichlorodiethyl sulfide). This skandard is accepted by many countries.
Accordi~g to the invention, applicant has now developed a novel non-black injection mouldable synthetic rubber composition, which provides twenty-four hour protection from penetration by H-agent, comprising:
bromobutyl rubber 100.0 silica 28.0 - 31.5 fatty acid cure promoter0.5 - 1.0 silane coupling agent (S-containing) 1.9 - ~.0 reinforcing filler 5.0 - 7.5 microcrystalline wax 0.5 - 1.0 low-temperature plasticizer0 - 8.0 rubber accelerator 2.5 - 3.0 process aid 0 - 2.2 alcohol phosphate 0.5 - 2.1 metal oxide curing agent5.0 - 5.5 pigment ~ 5 2-mercaptobenzothiazyl disul~ide 0 ~ 1.0 æul~ur 0. 0.25 diethylene glycol 0 - 3 wherein all proportions are expressed in parts by weight per one hundred parts o~ bromobutyl rubber (pph).
The silica employed is a non-dusting precipitated hydrated silica - 97.2% sio2 - particle size 100~300 microns, sold under th~ trade mark Zeosil 175. A similar material sold under the , , ~ , ' 2 ~
trade mark Zeosil 125 may also be employed. The purpose o~ thi~
component is to maximize Modulus 500% and Tensile strength.
The fatty acid cure promoter ~mployed is preferably stearic acid, although other fatty acid cure promoters could al~o be employed, such as Octoate Z, a trademark ~or a mixed fatty acid cure promoter.
The silane coupling agent is one which contains sulfur, such as vinyl mercaptosilane which is bifunctional polysulphide organosilane, sold under the trade mark SI-69. This component aids the silica to achieve the required 500~ Modulus, i.e. 900-1600 psi~
while keeping the Permanent Set at 500% below about 12%.
The reinforcing filler is a treated calcined clay-anhydrous aluminum silicate treated with a silane coupling ag~nt.
This component contributes to the optimi~ation of 500% Modulus and Permanent Set at 500%. Such materials include those sold under the trade marks Burgess KE and Nucap 100.
Various ester plasticizers have been employ0d in ~o~e formulati.ons to provide good low temperature ~lexlbil~ty and a~
lmprove resilience; including dibutyl~ebacate (D~S) Kodaflex rrx~IB~ dicapryl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate ~DOP) and dioctylazelate (DOA). The first three have been found to be equally applicable.
' -.
The microcrystalline wax employed is preferably Sunproof Canadian, although Sunproof Improved has alsQ been employed.
.
, The metal oxide curing agent employed i5 zinc oxid~.
Other curing agents such as lead oxide (Pb304~ could also be employed.
Perhaps the most significant improvement in properties is achieved by the accelerator system employed. The most di~ficult problem to overcome was having raised the Modulus 500% to levels in the range of 900-1600 psi, it was found that the Permanent Set was too high. This problem was overcome by including an alcohol phosphate, which was found to lower Permanent Set at 500% to below the useful maximum of about 12%, while maintaining Modulus 500% in the range of 900-1600 psi. A suitable alcohol phosphate is sold under the trade mark Zelec NE which is a neutralized alcohol phosphate.
The rubber accelerator per se is selected from Methazate, a trade mark for zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate; Tetrone A, a trade mark for dipentamsthylene-thiuram tetrasulfide; and Robac P25, also a trade mark for dipentamethylene-thiuram tetrasulfide.
A process aid (peptizing agent) such as Strucktol ~an : acidic ~atty acid) may be used with the accelerator in amounts up to about 2.2 pph to lubricate the polymer chain and reduce power requirements of the internal mixer.
Low-temperature T2 stiffening may be improved by the inclusion of a suitable plasticizer, e.g. TP-90-B, a trade mark for di(butoxy-ethoxy-ethy1) Pormal; and diethylene glycol.
Improved adhesion to metal, e.g. a~uminum inserts in gas masks may be achieved by including in the formulations MBTS
: (2-mercaptobenzothiazyl disulfide) and sulfur.

An appropriate adhesive is employed to bind the rubber material to a surface. Chemlok 205-220 (See page 193 of Chemical Dictionary) has been found acceptable for bonding to metal surfaces.
The pigments are selected to give an olive-drab coloration to the resulting material. Accordingly, the pigment composition typically comprises finely divided, BIK N-231 (Black) (0.17 pph~; Yellow 2n87 or 2089 (1.83 - 2.28 pph); and Green 4099 ~1.65 - 2.61 pph).
The results shown in the specific examples which follow illustrate the improved properties of the preferred ~ormulations according to the invention.

1985, with silica and a silane coupling agent in order to raise the modulus and tensile values. However, this deteriorates the Permanent Set to levels of 20 - 30%, as well as giving low ~heometer Modulus and extremely long raise before a rheometer plateau is reached.
Having established that silane is needed to raise the Modulus to the specification levels indicated in Table 1, and that highex Modulus values create higher Permanent Set, it was necessary to determine how to lower Permanent Set without affecting Modulus.
This led tQ the investigation of alcohol phosphate and treated silicate.
We were also able to bring cure injection times down to 180 secs from a previous high of 600 secs. Physicals on the faoepieces are within =pecification as of 240 secs.

This invention relates to rubber compositions, and in particular to synthetic rubber compositions for use in gas masks and other items requiring CW agent penetration resistance.
Natural rubber has been the choice of rubber chemists for gas mask facepieces since the introduction of respiratory protecting gas masks towards the end of World War I. It has many advantages over synthetic elastomers for facepiece use including comfort, high resiliency, high strength, easy processing and moulding, non-dermatitic properties and good low temperature flexibility. HowevPr as protective equipment develops and improves, the materials they are made fxom require an ever increasing performance. With the advent of new mask designs some of the properties of the material require improvement. For example, it is highly desirable to maximize the Modulus 500~ to the range of 900-1600 psi, while keeping the Permanent Set at 500~
below about 12%. With this in mind, applicant has concentrated on providiny an improved rubbar composition for ~acepiece use that would exhibit such improved properties. Various synthetia rubb~r ~ormulations were evaluated. The material studies were based upon thc knowledge that when the flnal material was cho~cn it would bs susceptible to the present commercial injection moulding operation now used in industry.
The basic property which in~luences the material selection is its impermeability to chemical warfare (CW) agents, specifically H and GB agents. The ~tandard selected for comparison was twenty-four (24) hour proteation against H-agent :' . , ' .
.. . - ~, ~ ., ::: . .
(dichlorodiethyl sulfide). This skandard is accepted by many countries.
Accordi~g to the invention, applicant has now developed a novel non-black injection mouldable synthetic rubber composition, which provides twenty-four hour protection from penetration by H-agent, comprising:
bromobutyl rubber 100.0 silica 28.0 - 31.5 fatty acid cure promoter0.5 - 1.0 silane coupling agent (S-containing) 1.9 - ~.0 reinforcing filler 5.0 - 7.5 microcrystalline wax 0.5 - 1.0 low-temperature plasticizer0 - 8.0 rubber accelerator 2.5 - 3.0 process aid 0 - 2.2 alcohol phosphate 0.5 - 2.1 metal oxide curing agent5.0 - 5.5 pigment ~ 5 2-mercaptobenzothiazyl disul~ide 0 ~ 1.0 æul~ur 0. 0.25 diethylene glycol 0 - 3 wherein all proportions are expressed in parts by weight per one hundred parts o~ bromobutyl rubber (pph).
The silica employed is a non-dusting precipitated hydrated silica - 97.2% sio2 - particle size 100~300 microns, sold under th~ trade mark Zeosil 175. A similar material sold under the , , ~ , ' 2 ~
trade mark Zeosil 125 may also be employed. The purpose o~ thi~
component is to maximize Modulus 500% and Tensile strength.
The fatty acid cure promoter ~mployed is preferably stearic acid, although other fatty acid cure promoters could al~o be employed, such as Octoate Z, a trademark ~or a mixed fatty acid cure promoter.
The silane coupling agent is one which contains sulfur, such as vinyl mercaptosilane which is bifunctional polysulphide organosilane, sold under the trade mark SI-69. This component aids the silica to achieve the required 500~ Modulus, i.e. 900-1600 psi~
while keeping the Permanent Set at 500% below about 12%.
The reinforcing filler is a treated calcined clay-anhydrous aluminum silicate treated with a silane coupling ag~nt.
This component contributes to the optimi~ation of 500% Modulus and Permanent Set at 500%. Such materials include those sold under the trade marks Burgess KE and Nucap 100.
Various ester plasticizers have been employ0d in ~o~e formulati.ons to provide good low temperature ~lexlbil~ty and a~
lmprove resilience; including dibutyl~ebacate (D~S) Kodaflex rrx~IB~ dicapryl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate ~DOP) and dioctylazelate (DOA). The first three have been found to be equally applicable.
' -.
The microcrystalline wax employed is preferably Sunproof Canadian, although Sunproof Improved has alsQ been employed.
.
, The metal oxide curing agent employed i5 zinc oxid~.
Other curing agents such as lead oxide (Pb304~ could also be employed.
Perhaps the most significant improvement in properties is achieved by the accelerator system employed. The most di~ficult problem to overcome was having raised the Modulus 500% to levels in the range of 900-1600 psi, it was found that the Permanent Set was too high. This problem was overcome by including an alcohol phosphate, which was found to lower Permanent Set at 500% to below the useful maximum of about 12%, while maintaining Modulus 500% in the range of 900-1600 psi. A suitable alcohol phosphate is sold under the trade mark Zelec NE which is a neutralized alcohol phosphate.
The rubber accelerator per se is selected from Methazate, a trade mark for zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate; Tetrone A, a trade mark for dipentamsthylene-thiuram tetrasulfide; and Robac P25, also a trade mark for dipentamethylene-thiuram tetrasulfide.
A process aid (peptizing agent) such as Strucktol ~an : acidic ~atty acid) may be used with the accelerator in amounts up to about 2.2 pph to lubricate the polymer chain and reduce power requirements of the internal mixer.
Low-temperature T2 stiffening may be improved by the inclusion of a suitable plasticizer, e.g. TP-90-B, a trade mark for di(butoxy-ethoxy-ethy1) Pormal; and diethylene glycol.
Improved adhesion to metal, e.g. a~uminum inserts in gas masks may be achieved by including in the formulations MBTS
: (2-mercaptobenzothiazyl disulfide) and sulfur.

An appropriate adhesive is employed to bind the rubber material to a surface. Chemlok 205-220 (See page 193 of Chemical Dictionary) has been found acceptable for bonding to metal surfaces.
The pigments are selected to give an olive-drab coloration to the resulting material. Accordingly, the pigment composition typically comprises finely divided, BIK N-231 (Black) (0.17 pph~; Yellow 2n87 or 2089 (1.83 - 2.28 pph); and Green 4099 ~1.65 - 2.61 pph).

1985, with silica and a silane coupling agent in order to raise the modulus and tensile values. However, this deteriorates the Permanent Set to levels of 20 - 30%, as well as giving low ~heometer Modulus and extremely long raise before a rheometer plateau is reached.
Having established that silane is needed to raise the Modulus to the specification levels indicated in Table 1, and that highex Modulus values create higher Permanent Set, it was necessary to determine how to lower Permanent Set without affecting Modulus.
This led tQ the investigation of alcohol phosphate and treated silicate.
We were also able to bring cure injection times down to 180 secs from a previous high of 600 secs. Physicals on the faoepieces are within =pecification as of 240 secs.
