Description
A common name for isobutylene-isoprene elastomer. Butyl rubber was originally the trademark [Standard Oil Co.] for a rubber developed in the 1930s. It was made by the polymerization of butylene and isoprene. Butyl rubbers are less permeable to air and gas than natural rubber. They are more resistant to sunlight and weathering but will dissolve in oils and hydrocarbon solvents. Butyl rubbers are used in tires, inner tubes, hoses, gaskets and diaphragms. They are also used for paper coating, waterproofing textiles and as adhesives.
Synonyms and Related Terms
