The subject invention discloses a low permeation curb pump hose comprising: (a) a tube layer, wherein the tube layer is comprised of a first nitrile rubber; (b) a barrier layer which is situated over the tube layer, wherein the barrier layer is comprised of a fluorothermoplastic; (c) a friction layer which is situated over the barrier layer, wherein the friction layer is comprised of a second nitrile rubber; (d) a reinforcement layer which is situated over the friction layer, wherein the reinforcement layer is comprised of braided steel wire, wherein the braided steel wire has a wire pack coverage of about 30 percent to about 60 percent; and (e) a cover layer which is situated over the reinforcing layer, wherein the cover layer is comprised of a chlorinated polyethylene.

Low permeation curb pump hose

A composition and method for treating an aramid cord include a bisphenol-A-based- and/or a bisphenol-F-based-liquid epoxy resin, a reactive diluent, and a curing agent. The composition and method also may include an elastomer-modified epoxy-functional adduct and/or an elastomer-modified epoxy-resin adduct.

Aramid cord treatment

The present invention is directed to an adhesion promoter for bonding fluoropolymers and, more specifically, for bonding a fluoroplastic layer to a fluroelastomer layer in a multi-layered article, such as a fuel filler hose. In one embodiment, the adhesion promoter includes a solvent, a polyallyamine (PAA), and an organo-onium compound. The solvent can include an organic solvent, such as an alcohol, e.g., methanol, ethanol, or isopropanol. The polyallylamine includes a homopolymer of 2-propen-1-amine, and the organo-onium compound can include an organic phosphonium salt. The final composition of the adhesion promoter can include solvent in the range of about 80% by weight to about 99% by weight; polyallylamine in the range of about 0.5% by weight to about 10% by weight; and organo-onium compound in the range of about 0.5% by weight to about 10% by weight. Such adhesion promoter may further optionally include a silane, such as an organosilane.

Adhesion promoter for bonding fluoropolymer layers in a multi-layered article

The present invention relates to a hose comprising: a thermoplastic fluoropolymer barrier layer; and a rubber layer adjacent to the barrier layer, the rubber layer comprising 100 parts by weight of an elastomer comprising FKM fluoroelastomer; from about 1 to about 15 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of elastomer, of at least one acid acceptor selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide, calcium hydroxide, litharge, dibasic lead phosphite, calcium oxide, and zinc oxide; from about 1 to about 6 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of elastomer, of at least one diamine curative; and from about 1 to about 10 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of elastomer, of at least one of a hydrotalcite or tricalcium aluminate hexahydrate; wherein the weight ratio of the at least one acid acceptor to the at least one hydrotalcite ranges from about 1 to about 5.
