ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a compounded rubber composition comprising a polyurethane, an oil and/or a thermoplastic resin. The present invention further relates to the use of the compounded rubber for making molded articles such as hoses, dashboards, covers, grips, handles, footwear or parts thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Polyurethane rubbers have broad utility in the fashioning of flexible, strong articles. However, conventional polyurethane elastomers are found to be relatively incompatible with extender oils due to the nature of their polyether or polyester soft segment. Polar oils might be used with these commercial polyurethanes but they soften the rigid urethane hard segments to an unacceptable extent. Therefore, polyether-and polyester-based polyurethane rubbers, while flexible and strong, are relatively hard and are not easily compounded with extender oils.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a compounded rubber composition comprising:
(a) a hydrogenated, polydiene diol based polyurethane having a hard segment content of 10% or greater;
(b) a non-polar extender oil in an amount from 10 to 400 phr; and/or
(c) one or more thermoplastic resin(s) in an amount from 5 to 100 phr.
