Abstract

A heat-resistant rubber hose for a diesel engine is provided, which is excellent in exhaust gas water resistance (acid resistance), heat resistance, flame resistance and low-temperature property. The heat-resistant rubber hose includes a tubular inner layer ( 1 ) and an outer layer ( 2 ) provided on an outer peripheral surface of the tubular inner layer ( 1 ), the inner layer ( 1 ) being composed of an inner layer material essentially including the following components (A) and (B) and free from an acid acceptor, the outer layer ( 2 ) being composed of an outer layer material essentially including the following components (A) to (C): (A) an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer rubber (EVM); (B) an organic peroxide crosslinking agent; and (C) at least one of a metal hydroxide and a surface-treated metal hydroxide.

Claims (11)

1. A heat-resistant rubber hose for a diesel engine, comprising:

a tubular inner layer; and

an outer layer provided on an outer peripheral surface of the tubular inner layer, wherein

the inner layer is composed of an inner layer material essentially comprising the following components (A) and (B) and free from an acid acceptor, and

the outer layer is composed of an outer layer material essentially comprising the following components (A) to (C), the component (C) being present in the outer layer material in a proportion of 50 to 80 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the component (A):

(A) an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer rubber (EVM);

(B) an organic peroxide crosslinking agent; and

(C) at least one of a metal hydroxide and a surface-treated metal hydroxide.

2. The heat-resistant rubber hose as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the outer layer material further comprises zinc borate.

3. The heat-resistant rubber hose as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the outer layer material further comprises red phosphorus.

4. The heat-resistant rubber hose as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising a fiber reinforcement layer provided between the inner layer and the outer layer.
