Abstract

The effect of the content, dispersity, and surface polarity of calcium carbonate on the physicomechanical and rheological properties of filled noncuring hot melt sealant formulations based on butyl rubber and various thermoplastics was examined. In the formulations based on nonpolar polymers, the cohesion strength and viscosity increase with an increase in the content and dispersity of calcium carbonate, with the strongest reinforcing effect observed with hydrophobized grades of calcium carbonate. With an increase in the polarity of the polymer base, untreated natural carbonate (chalk) becomes more efficient.
