The first patent for the use of aluminum oxide as filling agent as applied for in 1941 by the Deutsche Gold- un d edlberscholde- anstalt Firm. In this application aluminum oxide was mentioned as highly active fliling agent for natural and synthetic rubber0 Ely using aluminum oxide as the filling agent the tensile strength of butadienerubber is increased to 208 kg/cm2 and the strength limit is 462 percent. In tests by Jr. Lelles and Die ilauschulz in the Luna plant and tests by Jr, Pattok in the 2arbenfabri1 Tablfen, the ad- dition of aluminum oxide (obtained from alum or aluminum eul- phete) indicates an excessive degree of defornat1on (10,000 to 20,000 or more) although the soligity of the vulcanized meterial is increased (200-2/30 kg/cm-)0 leabber mixtures with such a high deformation depree cannot be processed in rubber plants. Therefore the industrial use of aluminum oxide as an active filling agent was not practicable in the form proposed by the Deutsche Gold- und oilberecheide- anstelt The value of eluminam oxide as filling material is also con- siderably reduced due to its excessive static stretch dilation (40 to 80 percent). Dr, Hellos and Dr. Lauschulz made seecial tests to obtain aluminum oxide with a normal rate of mixture deforezation0 email quantities of inorganic salts of alkali-metals and other :letals were added to the sulphate before the beatine process, The tests had no practical results. Illthoueh the decree of deformation declined,the tensile strength of the vulcanized material decreased .considerably. 5. It is probable that the addition of alkali-salts at a heat- ing temperature of 9000 to 1,0000Cleads to the formation of nonactivo meltines with aluminum oxide or favors sintering of aluminum oxide particles due to their size or share or the condition of the surface, thus producing nonactive forms. exe Espich tried to solve the ?nroblen of the low degree of dellormation by the same procedure, Aie also added various Inorganic salts to the basic wew material before heatine. However, his tests did not lead to any positive results either, The following data were listed in the experiments of Dr. Ir,seich; 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/08/11 : CIA-RDP82-00457R005100070009-3 25X1A Approved For Release 2003/08/11 : CIA-RDP82-00457R005100070009-3 25X1 taleteei CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY 25X1A Tf1,112e Designation Zixture Heating F D. of material degree ,aguawasz.v.,...,sp,a,,,neo.ax,d*asta.megalannewI*AMOIR*. bl.D Lel inaLIIIISie.1.4.0164,114%?-?

YON Summarizing the mentioned tests aluminum oxide is not suitable as a filling agent in the proposed form, Hoveirer, the research is sipnificant as it proves for the finet tiro, that the tensile strength of vulcanized material Is considerably increased by adding to the rubbeA: mixture aluminum oxide obtained from alum or aluminum sul- phate through disintegration at high temperature. Aluminum oxide can be used as active filling ogent in the rubber in- dustry only after the problem of reducing the degree of de- formation to a normal figure (1,500 to 3,000) has been solved. ley reducing of vulcanized dilation coefficient to solve this the degree of deformation many other qualities materials are also improved (stretch, stretch and so on).

This method was abandoned due to unsatisfactory results, b. The second met'aod consisted in covering the surface of the aluminum oxide with the layer of organic matter to decrease the friction between rubber and filling agent. thus reducing the degree of raw deformation. This represents an absolutely new procedure in the rubber industry. ehile examinin silipur as an active filling agent* obtained through precipitation of silikosol sulphate by moans of an ammoniacal. solution of sodium sulphate, Dr. Pattok tried various materials to increase the moistening property of the filling agent in tAe rubber compound. The following materials were tested: T.G. wet, chloric rubber, styrol, raw rubber,I,G, wax N (new) and benzyl cellulose. These materials were first dissolved in water or benzol and in this condition coated on the surface of the filling agent.

Conclusions of Abovelisted Tests a. The processing of aluminum oxide with various agents diminishes friction between rubber particles and the oxide surface produces a filling agent riving rubber a high rate of solidity (280-300 kg/cm), and tensile strength (000-750 percent) and, simultaneously, reduces the decree of deformation (from 200,000 up to norm). values). b. All tested materials can be divided into three croups. (1) The first group of admixtures lowers both the deformation degree and the solidity of vulcanized natters. This group is comprised of emulgator E-1000 and. sapel. (2) The second group of admixtures lowers the defo degree but retains the tensile strength. This group is comprised of merSolates and paraffinic acids. (3) The third group at admixtures lowers the defo degree at the same time increasing moderately or strongly the solidity. This group is comprised of seral, iron- naphtate, sodium-resinate, etc, 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/08/11 : CIA-RDP82-00457R005100070009-3 ? r ?

It is characteristic of all three croups that they lower the defo-degse to normal figures and considerably increase the ductility, sometimes up to. 34,100 percent (see ' tests with benzol-sulfonic acid). d. The use of all these admixtures usually reduces the elasticity. eveLLadS eaeo heee-feee te eelvo _this problem also, either by adding smaller quantities of aluminum oxide to the rubber compound or by using special arents for retaining the elasticity (see table 6). 10. a. This research is important because it proves aluminum oxide to be a high quality Milne agent for rubber com- pounds and also helped to considerably simplify production methods and find a furnace design for aluminum oxide production. aluminum oxide was produeed in a test cupola furnace with exterior heating in the Luna Plant. This kind of furnace cannot be considered a model type of an in- dustrial furnace. eiuffle-furnaces used for aluminum oxide production in 'aolfen and EitterfeId are also not model furnace types if the volume of aluminum oxide and the im- portance of this valuable filling agent for future pro- duction is considered. At present perfect furnace types are the modern dram rotary furnaces with exterior and interior heating and cupola fur- naces with interior heating. The furnaces have a high prow duction caracity and can be 'pe rated continuously. b. A rotary experimental furnace for aluminum oxide production was tested in the Polysius Plant in Dessau in June 1948. The furnace was 8 meters long and 30 to 40 cram diameter. aluminue sulphate was introduced at one end of the drum while the burner head was arranged at the other end. The test showed that the whole active part escaped in the smoke due to the great volatility of aluminum oxide. The part of aluminum oxide which reached the onposite end of the furnace was nonactive. This installation was not usable as separation of a volatile material such as aluminum oxide in gases heated to l000?C is very difficult and reluires a very complicated plant with various systems of cyclone filters, etc.., c. Uupola furnaces with interior heating olariously have the sale defects. Dr. oll proposed a noteworthy furnace con- struction for our aluminum oxide production departnent. He suggested the insertion of a thermax pipe of seell diameter into a conventional rotary furnace. The heating gases cover the outside+ of the the rmax pipe with aluminum sulphate and aluminum oxide insides while pipe and furnace revolve. However, such a furnace cannot be rerarded as a model type as there is a critical shortage of thermax material. The solidity of thermac also rapidly declines at temperatures of 1,000 to 2s000?C. d. The tests proved normal rotary furnaces without thermax or cupola furnaces with interior heating as the most suitable types for the aluminum oxide production. The aluminum oxide is seearated from the heating rases by wetting with water or a mild soda solution or other liquids. Experiments of this kind are presently done by Engineer Khycheyan and Dr. ,lean. 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/08/11 : CIA-RDP82-00457R005100070009-3 25X1A
