The present invention provides a composite molded body in which a rubber layer in the form of a thin film is formed on a surface of a resin molded body and a production method therefor. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a liquid composition containing a rubber component such as a rubber latex and a peroxide is applied to a surface of a resin molded body such as a polyamide-based resin having an amino group, causing crosslinking to occur in an uncrosslinked rubber layer and forming a crosslinked rubber layer in the form of a thin film. When a co-crosslinking agent is used in combination, adhesion to the resin molded body can be improved even when the thickness of the crosslinked rubber layer is small.

A masterbatch manufacturing method in accordance with the present disclosure comprises an operation in which pre-coagulation rubber latex comprising filler is coagulated to obtain a coagulum; an operation in which the coagulum is dewatered; and an operation in which the dewatered coagulum is plasticized as it is dried by means of an extruder; wherein, during the operation in which the dewatered coagulum is plasticized as it is dried, the coagulum comprises a peptizing agent.

Methods to prepare elastomer compounds are described that include dry mixing at least one additive to an elastomer composite masterbatch at low temperatures over a shortened mixing cycle with reduced energy consumption. The elastomer composite masterbatch is produced in a liquid masterbatch process. The resulting elastomer compounds are further described as well as property improvements that can be achieved.

Copolymers comprising recurring units of a phenyl glycidyl ether and alkylene oxides are disclosed. Some of the copolymers comprise a di- or polyfunctional nucleophilic initiator and recurring units of the phenyl glycidyl ether and an alkylene oxide. The di- or polyfunctional nucleophilic initiator is an alcohol, phenol, amine, thiol, thiophenol, sulfinic acid, or deprotonated species thereof. Other copolymers comprise a monofunctional nucleophilic initiator selected from thiols, thiophenols, aralkylated phenols, sulfinic acids, secondary amines, C.sub.10-C.sub.20 terpene alcohols, and deprotonated species thereof. Pigments dispersions comprising the copolymers are also disclosed. The copolymers meet the growing needs of the industry with their ease of manufacture, diverse structures, and desirable performance attributes for dispersing a wide range of organic and inorganic pigments. Agricultural applications for the copolymers are also disclosed.
