Abstract
From the results of this study it can be concluded that higher stearic acid concentration as a part of curing activator and high level of curative (i.e. sulfur and accelerator) causes higher crosslink density, tensile strength, modulus and hardness, and lower NBR to nylon-PET cord adhesion. Accelerator type also affects NBR/nylon-PET cord adhesion and using NOBS the highest coating adhesion is achieved. Using semi-efficient vulcanizing (i.e. accelerator/sulfur ratio around 1) is the most suitable way for achieving high NBR/nylon cord adhesion. And finally, independent from accelerator type, sulfur amount and efficiency of vulcanizing system, coating adhesion is a semi-linear function of crosslink density of nitrile rubber.
