A nitrile group-containing rubber latex comprising an aqueous dispersion of a nitrile group-containing highly saturated rubber having an iodine value of not more than 120. The said rubber latex can be produced by converting a solution of a nitrile group-containing highly saturated polymer rubber having an iodine value of not more than 120 in an inert solvent into an oil-in-water emulsion using water and an emulsifier, and removing the solvent from the resulting emulsion.

Nitrile group-containing highly saturated polymer rubber latex and

In a method for bonding a nitrile group-containing highly saturated polymer rubber having an iodine value of 120 or less to fibers on vulcanization, the improvement wherein fibers treated with an aqueous dispersion comprising a halogen-containing polymer latex and a resorcinol-formaldehyde resin are used.

Method for bonding rubbers to fibers

A rubber composition comprising 20 to 70% by weight of a first rubber component which is butyl rubber, a halogenated butyl rubber or a mixture of both as a first rubber component and 80 to 30% by weight of a second rubber component which is at least one rubber selected from chlorinated polyethylene rubber, chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber and epichlorohydrin rubber, the first rubber component being dispersed as crosslinked rubber particles in the second rubber component.

Rubber composition

A process for the addition reaction of an unsaturated organic compound, except a rubber, having at least one carbon-carbon double bond in a molecule, which comprises reacting the unsaturated organic compound with an organic compound having a carboxyl group and an aldehyde group in the presence of a Lewis acid.

Process for addition reaction of unsaturated organic compounds

A cis-1,4-polyisoprene rubber composition capable of giving a vulcanizate having improved strength, said composition comprising (1) a synthetic cis-1,4-polyisoprene rubber having epoxy groups, (2) a compound having at least two primary amino groups, and (3) a sulfur vulcanization system.

Cis-1,4-polyisoprene rubber composition

A method for modifying a rubber having an unsaturated carbon bond which comprises reacting the rubber with an organic compound represented by the general formula ##STR1## wherein --R represents a hydrocarbon group, and --X is --H, --CN or ##STR2## in which --Y represents an organic atomic grouping, in the presence of a Lewis acid to introduce an ester group. Optionally, the ester group introduced is converted into a carboxyl group by chemically treating the reaction product.

Method for modifying rubbers
