- oil-extended composition with (i) 2 -60wt % OBC, the OBC having a soft segment comonomer content from about 9 mol % to less than 15 mol % blended with (ii) a polyolefin unexpectedly reduces oil-bleed while maintaining softness in oil-extended OBC compositions.
- oil-bleed-out or "oil-bleed” is the phenomenon whereby oil migrates from the interior of a polymeric component to the surface of the polymeric component. Oil-bleed makes the surface sticky and/or slippery. Oil-bleed typically results in adverse "feel” (haptics) and/or adverse “optics” (visual appearance).
- oil exudation is the process of oil moving from an interior location to a surface of a polymeric component. Oil exudation yields oil-bleed. In other words, oil-bleed is the end result of oil exudation. Oil-bleed is accelerated by elevated temperatures.

- Normalized oil-bleed index is an optical measurement to compare oil- bleed characteristics. Molded plaques are aged for 24 hrs, 1 week, and 3 weeks (at 23 °C and 70°C) while resting on sheets of ZigZagTM cigarette paper (available from ZigZag Corp.). After aging, the cigarette paper is removed and optically scanned against a black background to measure the extent of oil-bleed.
- the scanning is performed using the Xerox WorkCentre M118i copier/fax/scanner.
- the image is scanned in "Text" mode at 200dpi, and saved as a TIFF file.
- the TIFF file is opened in MS Paintbrush, cropped on two sides, then saved.
- the image is then opened in Photoshop CS2 (v.9) and cropped on the other two sides.
- the TIFF file is opened in MS Paintbrush, cropped on two sides, then saved.
- the "text mode" image is a bi- tonal image. The percentage of black pixels in the image is the desired result.
- the text mode image is obtained in this software by first converting it to an 8-bit grayscale image so that a grayscale histogram could be created, with just 2 levels of grayscale, 0 (black) to 255 (white).
- the percentile of the 0 grayscale level in the histogram is the same as the percentage of black pixels. (This value is called “% gray scale” but may more accurately be described as "% black pixels" in the bi-tonal image).
- a normalized oil-bleed index (NOBI) is calculated according to the following equation:
- Normalized Oil-bleed Index 100 ⁇ (% grayscale sample - % grayscale control)/(100 - % grayscale control)
- % grayscale sample is the percent grayscale measured on the aged sample and "% grayscale control" is a measurement on an un-aged, untreated sheet of cigarette paper.
- Figure 1 shows four examples of grayscale: 20.1%, 34.6%, 51.6%, and 100% grayscale.
- Shore A hardness is measured on molded plaques in accordance with ASTM D 2240. This test method permits hardness measurements based on either initial indentation or indentation after a specified period of time, or both. In this case, a specified time of 10 seconds is used.
- SAXS Small angle x-ray scattering
- Tack Force is measured as follows. Samples are compression molded or injection molded into plaques with a thickness of 0.125 inches. Samples are cut into 1" x 6" strips and marked in 1" intervals. Samples are aged at elevated temperature if warranted. Mylar® sheets are cut into 1" x 6" strips, formed into loops with dimensions of 1" x 5". After aging, the samples are cooled to room temperature. Double-sided tape is used to affix the specimen to platform to prevent it from rising up off the surface. The loop is placed into the pneumatic grips of InstronTM 5564 and aligned parallel to the plaque. The loop is lowered at a rate of 300 /minute covering the 1" x 1" surface of the plaque. A new loop is used with each measurement taken. The Average Tack Force (N) and standard deviation are reported after five readings per specimen. One measurement is taken per each 1" x 1" portion of a sample. Surface Roughness
- Surface roughness is created on a mold by sanding a mirror-finished plate.
- the surface roughness of the mold is measured using a profilometer (Dektak 150 stylus profilometer) using the following parameters.
- Surface roughness is measured both in a direction parallel to and perpendicular to the sanding direction.
- Surface roughness values reported are Ra, average roughness, for the perpendicular direction.
- Roughness formerly known as Arithmetic Average (A A) and Center Line Average (CL), is the arithmetic average deviation from the mean line within the assessment length.
