本実施形態のゴム組成物には、前述したアジピン酸系可塑剤及びグリコールエーテル系可塑剤以外の可塑剤が配合されていてもよい。本実施形態のゴム組成物に添加されるその他の可塑剤は、クロロプレンゴムと相溶性のあるものであれば特に限定されるものではなく、例えば菜種油、アマニ油、ヒマシ油、ヤシ油などの植物油、フタレート系可塑剤、DUP(フタル酸ジウンデシル)、DOS(セバシン酸ジオクチル)、DOA(アジピン酸ジオクチル)、エステル系可塑剤、エーテルエステル系可塑剤、チオエーテル系可塑剤、アロマ系オイル、ナフテン系オイル、潤滑油、プロセスオイル、パラフィン、流動パラフィン、ワセリン、石油アスファルトなどの石油系可塑剤が挙げられる。
加工助剤や滑剤は、ゴム組成物を混練したり加硫成形したりする際に、ロールや成形金型、押出機のスクリューなどから剥離しやすくして、加工特性や表面滑性を向上させるために添加される。加工助剤や滑剤の具体例としては、ステアリン酸などの脂肪酸系加工助剤、ポリエチレンなどのパラフィン系加工助剤、脂肪酸アミドなどが挙げられる。
本実施形態のゴム組成物には、耐熱性を向上させる目的で、老化防止剤を配合することができる。通常のゴム組成物に使用されている老化防止剤には、ラジカルを捕捉して自動酸化を防止する一次老化防止剤と、ハイドロパーオキサイドを無害化する二次老化防止剤とがあり、本実施形態のゴム組成物には、そのいずれも用いることができる。
本実施形態のゴム組成物には、クロロプレンゴムや天然ゴムと充填剤や補強剤との接着性を高め、加硫形成体の機械的強度を向上させるために、充填剤や補強剤と併せて、シランカップリング剤が添加されていてもよい。シランカップリング剤は、ゴム組成物を混練する際に添加してもよいが、予め充填剤又や補強剤をシランカップリング剤で表面処理しておき、この充填剤や補強剤を副原料として添加する際に、併せて添加される形式を採用することもできる。
本実施形態のゴム組成物を製造する際は、通常のゴム組成物の製造方法を適用することができる。具体的には、本実施形態のゴム組成物は、クロロプレンゴムと、天然ゴム又はイソプレンゴムと、アジピン酸系可塑剤と、必要に応じて、グリコールエーテル系可塑剤、加硫剤、その他の副原料を、所定量計量して混合することにより製造することができる。その際の混合方法は、特に限定されるものではなく、例えば、ニーダー、オープンロール、バンバリーミキサー及び押出機などの公知の混練装置を用いて、加硫温度以下の温度で混練すればよい。
次に、本発明の第2の実施形態に係る加硫成形体について説明する。本実施形態の加硫成形体は、前述した第1の実施形態のゴム組成物を、目的に応じた形状に加硫成形したものである。その際の加硫成形方法は、特に限定されるものではなく、ゴム組成物を成形中又は成形した後に、例えばプレス加硫、インジェクション加硫、直接釜加硫、間接釜加硫、直接蒸気連続加硫、常圧連続加硫又は連続加硫プレスなどの公知の方法により加硫すればよい。
クロロプレンゴム、天然ゴム又はイソプレンゴム及びアジピン酸系可塑剤と、一部の実施例ではグリコールエーテル系可塑剤を加え、更に、補強剤のカーボンブラック、加工助剤のステアリン酸、老化防止剤を所定の比率で配合して、加圧式型ニーダー試験機で混練した。ニーダー試験機で得られた混練物に、所定比率で加硫剤の硫黄、酸化亜鉛、酸化マグネシウム及び加硫促進剤のエチレンチオウレアを更に加えて、直径8インチの2本オープンロールを用いて40℃で混練し、厚さ2.3mmのゴム組成物シートを作製した。
前述した方法で作製した実施例及び比較例の各ゴム組成物シートを、160℃の温度で、5分間、圧力0.8MPaの条件でプレス加硫し、厚さ2.0mmの加硫成形体シートを作製した。この成形体シートから、試験片を切り出し、以下に示す方法で、引張り強度、破断伸び、デュロメーター硬さ及び脆化温度を測定した。
引張り強度及び破断伸びは、機械的強度の指標となる値であり、JIS K6251に準拠して測定した。具体的には、加硫成形体シートからダンベル状3号形試験片を切り出し、全自動ゴム引張り試験機(島津製作所社製 AGS‐H)を用いて、23℃の温度条件下で、引張り速度500mm/分の条件で測定した。その結果、引張り強度が15MPa以上、破断伸びが450%以上の値を示したものを合格とした。
デュロメーター硬さは、JIS K6253-3に準拠し、23℃の温度条件下で、加硫成形体シートを3枚重ねた状態で測定した。測定には、硬度計(アスカーゴム硬度計A型)を使用した。その結果、デュロメーター硬さが40~70ポイントであったものを合格とした。
脆化温度は、低温特性の指標となる値であり、JIS K6261に準拠して測定した。具体的には、脆化温度は、一定温度の試験槽に入れた片持ばりの短冊状試験片に、所定の打撃を与えて、その破壊個数を各温度で測定し、その値を所定計算式に代入して算出した。その結果、脆化温度が-40℃以下であったものを合格とした。
