Abstract

A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition is disclosed, comprising a chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer having incorporated therein (a) from 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a metal salt of an organic acid, (b) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a phenylamine and/or a phenylenediamine, (c) from 1 to 30 parts by weight of an acid acceptor, and (d) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a vulcanizing agent, per 100 parts by weight of the chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer. The composition provides a vulcanized product excellent in ozone resistance as well as mechanical strength.

Claims

1. A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition comprising a chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer and the following components (a) to (d), (a) from 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a metal salt of an organic acid, (b) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a phenylamine, phenylenediamine, or phenylamine and phenylenediamine, (c) from 1 to 30 parts by weight of an acid acceptor, and (d) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a vulcanizing agent, per 100 parts by weight of the chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer.

2. A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said metal salt of an organic acid is a metal salt of a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 6 or more carbon atoms, a chain organic acid having less than 6 carbon atoms, an aromatic organic acid, or a cyclic organic acid.

3. A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said metal salt of an organic acid is present in an amount of from 0.3 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer.

4. A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said component (b) is present in an amount of from 0.5 to 7 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer.

5. A chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said vulcanizing agent is selected from diaminemaleimide compounds and thiuram compounds.
