- the invention relates to an elastomeric composition based on block terpolymers whose monomer conferring on the assembly its elastomeric property is an acrylate, and to its use for the manufacture of objects with elastic films, thin impervious by means of preforms.
- Elastic membrane-type objects such as gloves, condoms, balloons, some medical instruments, etc. have long been made from natural rubber.
- this natural rubber is used in the form of latex, that is to say a natural emulsion of water and rubber to which are added the agents necessary for stabilization and vulcanization.
- a shape of the object to be manufactured is then immersed in the latex bath the number of times necessary to make a layer of the desired thickness. After evaporation of the water, a solid rubber film is obtained which is then vulcanized to give it the proper properties.
- Natural rubber has many advantages in this type of application because of its strength, elasticity and pleasant "feel".
- natural rubber has a number of disadvantages due to the presence of tiny holes due to imperfections of the natural latex. These holes have the disadvantage of letting the small molecules pass and make them unusable in some medical applications in particular.
- These natural rubbers also have a susceptibility to ozone causing cracking, as well as an oxidative attack resulting in loss of storage properties.
- the natural rubber thus treated is not hypoallergenic and its regular use often causes allergic reactions.
- the second consists of ABu and MMA in substantially equivalent amounts in the presence of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate.
- the copolymerization of the monomers is carried out in the presence of a persulfate as initiator.
- This type of polymerization leads to a random copolymer, that is to say that the monomers are distributed randomly or according to their respective reactivities throughout the polymer chain. These are not block copolymers.
- the block copolymers are copolymers in which part of the molecular chain has a composition A, and at least one other part a composition B.
- the structures may be of the ABA type, or of the ABC type.
- An ABC type polymer will typically be obtained by reacting a first monomer or a monomer mixture of selected composition to obtain block A, then reacting a second monomer or a second comonomer composition to obtain block B, and finally a third monomer or third comonomer composition to obtain block C. If the compositions of blocks A and C are identical, an ABA block polymer is obtained.
- the anionic, cationic or controlled radical polymerization processes make it possible to obtain this type of structure.
- An ABA type structure can also be obtained by first forming a block B keeping a reactivity at its two ends, then coming to form the two blocks A simultaneously. Controlled radical polymerization allows this type of process.
- SBS polystyrene / polybutadiene / polyStyrene
- SIS polyStyrene / polylsoprene / polyStyrene
- Today many products such as synthetic gloves are made of S-EB-S block copolymers (polystyrene / polyethylene-butylene / polystyrene), copolymers that seem to have the best properties especially with regard to their mechanical and physical properties and their resistance to ozone and oxidation. These polymers are obtained by anionic polymerization.
- the US'900 patent describes an elastomeric composition formed from several triblock copolymers S-EB-S having different characteristics and which are dissolved in an organic solvent, generally toluene. It is in this solution, which may include other agents, a plasticizer for example, that the preform is dipped. It is then removed after formation of the copolymer film. Evaporation of the solvent then makes it possible to obtain the final elastic copolymer film.
- US 452 discloses the use in the manufacture of thin-film articles of an elastomeric composition based on S-EB-S triblock copolymers which are not dissolved in the organic solvent as in US Pat. 900, but dispersed in an aqueous phase in the presence of a surfactant, in the form of particles of small dimensions (about 2 microns). The rest of the process is the same as before with evaporation of the aqueous phase.
- the diagram of FIG. 1 illustrates the process with these different steps and in particular those of the mixture with high shearing coefficient (34) and the elimination (36) of the organic solvent associated with the copolymer.
- US'007 discloses the use in the manufacture of thin-film articles of an elastomeric composition based on a triblock copolymer S-EB-S which is dissolved in the organic solvent, toluene, as in the US'900 patent.
- the contribution to the state of the art of this patent lies in the selection of the block copolymers to be used and in particular the respective molecular weights of the various blocks, styrene and ethylene-butylene, of the block copolymer.
- the problem to be solved is to find for the manufacture of thin-film articles a block copolymer elastomer having at least the same performance as S-EB-S but available in the form of a stable latex similar to the latex of natural rubber and not not including the defects of the latter.
- the invention aims to overcome these drawbacks by proposing the use of novel triblock copolymers which, in addition, may be either in the form of a solution in an organic solvent, or in the form of a latex consisting of a stable emulsion, and which therefore, in this case, make it possible to dispense with the use of the organic solvent.
- the invention relates to a process for the manufacture of thin-film articles comprising the following steps: - preparation of a liquid phase containing, homogeneously dispersed, a polymer fraction comprising a majority of a triblock copolymer with a central block representing from 30 to 85% by weight of the copolymer, comprising a majority of an acrylate monomer having a low Tg conferring on this copolymer its elastomeric character, and identical or different side blocks having a Tg greater than that of the central block, depositing this phase liquid in the form of a film on a preform of the object to be manufactured, elimination of the liquid phase by evaporation, and solidification of the film to obtain a solid elastic film on the preform.
- the liquid phase will be in the form of a true solution of the polymer fraction in an organic solvent.
- This organic solvent should have good solubilization properties of the copolymers and homopolymers of the polymer fraction retained in the process. It will be chosen from aromatic derivatives such as toluene, ethylbenzene, chlorobenzene, xylene, or ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone. Toluene is the preferred solvent for the process of the invention.
- the liquid phase will be in the form of a stable aqueous emulsion of the polymer fraction (latex).

- the solidification of the film can be obtained by heating the latter.
- the solidification can also be obtained by local destabilization of the latex by coagulation by means of a coagulating agent, such as divalent cation salts or mineral acids, previously deposited on the surface of the preform.
- the operation can be repeated several times if it is desired to obtain a multilayer film with the same latex or the same solution, or a latex or a solution containing different grades and / or comprising complementary components capable of conferring additional properties to the final product.
