The invention is directed to a production installation (100) that realizes production of a semi-finished product (50) having at least one unvulcanized elastomeric layer (50a) and a cover layer (50b) assembled therewith. The invention is also directed to a method for producing a semi-finished product (50) for use in tire production.

An pneumatic plug for sealing a pipeline. The pneumatic plug includes a tubular member that extends in an axial direction from a first end to a second end. The tubular member includes a rubber layer and an elastomeric band. The rubber layer extends from the first end to the second end of the tubular member. The elastomeric band is disposed on a top of the rubber layer. The elastomeric band is positioned between the first end and the second end of the tubular member.

A laminate of a thermoplastic resin or thermoplastic elastomer composition film and a rubber composition layer, which can be used as an inner liner for a pneumatic tire, with improved adhesive strength at the interface of the thermoplastic resin or thermoplastic elastomer composition film and the rubber composition layer. A laminate comprising a thermoplastic resin or thermoplastic elastomer composition film and a rubber composition layer, the rubber composition containing a rubber component, a condensate of a phenol compound and formaldehyde, and methylene donor and a vulcanizing agent, wherein 2.5-40% by mass of the rubber component is butyl rubber or halogenated butyl rubber, the content of the condensate is 0.5-20 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component, and the content of the methylene donor is 0.25-200 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component.

The present disclosure describes techniques for fabricating a textile article from a laminate formed by curing a reinforced fiber matrix and a resin substrate. The resin substrate may include iron oxide particles, such as iron oxide, Fe.sub.3O.sub.4, that are capable of absorbing and attenuating RF signals within a desired RF signal range, namely 0 GHz-3 GHz, 3 GHz,8 GHz, and greater than or equal to 10 GHz. The iron oxide particles may include Fe.sub.3O.sub.4Fe, Fe.sub.3O.sub.4Ni, or Fe.sub.3O.sub.4, and/or so forth. Each iron oxide particle is selected based on the RF signal range that the textile article is intended to absorb. In other words, a change in iron oxide particle composition and proportion by volume may impact the RF signals absorbed and attenuated by the textile article.

A laminate blank includes at least one rigidifying layer and at least one comfort layer. The rigidifying layer includes a reinforcement preform and a resin. The layers are pressed to form the laminate blank.
