Blends comprised of (A) a high molecular weight elastomeric polymer; (B) a sufficient amount of an ethylene/alphaolefin/nonconjugated polyene terpolymer having a number average molecular weight of between about 1,000 and about 15,000 such that the variety of the blend is at least about 5% lower than the viscosity of component (A) alone, and (c) a curative, exhibit increased processability, and, when cured, exhibit unexpectedly desirable tensile strength, ozone resistance and oil resistance.

Elastomeric composition

Adhesive tapes comprised of a curable composition comprising: (A) at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene/alphaolefin copolymer, ethylene/alphaolefin/nonconjugated polyene terpolymer, polyacrylate, polymethacrylate, polyisoprene, polyacrylonitrile, polymethacrylonitrile and polybutadiene, said polymer having a number average molecular weight of between about 500 and about 14,000; (B) an effective amount of curative having an activation temperature of at least about 100.degree. C; and (C) (optionally) a blowing agent possess admirable qualities for use as insulating compositions. Also disclosed are composites comprised of a substrate having cured insulating tape compositions adhered thereto.

Insulating adhesive tape composition and composites thereof

The invention relates to a novel low profile additive (LPA) for uncured polyester resins and the resultant molding compositions. The low profile additive is the reaction product of an ethylene/alphaolefin copolymer with a carboxylic acid or anhydride, to thereby form a non-thermoplastic carboxyl modified polyolefin. The novel LPA is a remarkably effective dimensional stabilizer and has displayed the ability to achieve net expansion in a cured polyester resin molding composition.

Carboxyl modified olefinic copolymer compositions

An elastomeric composition formed by curing a blend comprised of (A) between about 70 and about 94 phr of a highly unsaturated rubber; (B) between about 3 and about 27 phr of ethylene/propylene/nonconjugated diene terpolymer having a number average molecular weight of more than about 35,000; (C) between about 3 and about 27 phr of ethylene/propylene/nonconjugated diene terpolymer having a number average molecular weight of between about 500 and about 15,000; between about 2 and about 7.5 phr of a quinoline antioxidant; and (D) an effective amount of curative exhibit unexpectedly desirable ozone resistance. Also disclosed is a process for preparing such elastomeric compositions.

Carboxyl modified olefinic copolymer composition

A sprayable and foamable insulating composition comprising: (A) at least one low molecular weight polymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene/alphaolefin copolymer, ethylene/alphaolefin/nonconjugated polyene terpolymer, polyacrylate, polymethacrylate, polyisoprene, polyacrylonitrile, polymethacrylonitrile and polybutadiene; (B) an effective amount of curative; and (C) an effective amount of a blowing agent having an activation temperature which is less than or about equal to the curing temperature of component (B), said composition having a Brookfield viscosity of about 100,000 centipoise or less at shear rates of 5 sec.sup.-1 or greater. A process for providing a layer of insulating foam employing such composition is also disclosed.
