Compositions comprising at least one copper salt, and an aromatic nitroso compound precursor are provided. The copper salt may oxidize the aromatic nitroso compound precursor to provide an aromatic nitroso compound. The compositions may find utility in polymer to metal, in particular, rubber to metal bonding. The aromatic nitroso compound precursor may be a nitrosobenzene/dinitrosobenzene precursor. The nitrosobenzene or dinitrosobenzene precursor may be at least one of a quinone oxime or a quinone dioxime.

Oxidising agents for elastomer bonding compositions

Compositions comprising at least one oxidant or adhesion promoter, and at least one molecule selected from an aromatic nitroso compound or an aromatic nitroso compound precursor dinitrosobenzene precursor and combinations thereof are provided. At least one of the components is encapsulated. The compositions may find utility in polymer to metal, in particular, rubber to metal bonding. The aromatic nitroso compound or an aromatic nitroso compound precursor may be nitrosobenzene/dinitrosobenzene or nitrosobenzene/dinitrosobenzene precursor respectfully. The nitrosobenzene or dinitrosobenzene precursor may be at least one of a quinone oxime or a quinone dioxime.

Elastomer to substrate bonding

A compound comprising at least one alkoxy silane moiety; and at least one moiety selected from a nitrosobenzene or a nitrosobenzene precursor and combinations thereof are provided and used in polymer to metal in particular rubber to metal bonding. The nitrosobenzene precursor may be at least one of a quinone dioxime or a quinone oxime.
