Rubber composition, rubber molded body, and method for production of rubber molded body
A rubber composition contains: (A) an ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber including an ethylene unit and an α-olefin unit having 3 or more carbon atoms; (B) a fire retardant including a phosphorus atom and a nitrogen atom; (C) a thermally expandable graphite; and (D) additive particles that are porous particles or particles having ion exchangeability. A content of the fire retardant is 50 to 250 parts by mass and a content of the additive particles is 15 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber.
1. A rubber composition comprising:
(A) an ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber comprising an ethylene unit and an α-olefin unit having 3 or more carbon atoms;
(B) a fire retardant comprising a phosphate salt formed from phosphoric acid or a polyphosphoric acid and alkylene polyamine or polyalkylene polyamine;
(C) a thermally expandable graphite; and
(D) additive particles that are porous particles or particles having ion exchangeability, wherein the additive particles are silica particles, hydrotalcite particles, or a combination thereof, and wherein
a content of the fire retardant is 50 to 250 parts by mass and a content of the additive particles is 0.5 parts by mass to 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber.
2. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the additive particles is 5 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber.
3. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ethylene-α-olefin-based copolymer rubber further comprising a nonconjugated polyene unit.
4. A rubber molded body comprising the rubber composition according to claim 1 and/or a vulcanizate thereof.
5. A method for producing a rubber molded body, comprising heat-molding the rubber composition according to claim 1 in a mold.
