The invention discloses a preparation method of
nitrile rubber with improved thermo-oxidative
aging resistance, which comprises the following steps: butadiene and
acrylonitrile are used as main
polymerization monomers, and a reactive anti-aging agent with an
amide group is used as a
functional monomer; the total addition amount of butadiene and
acrylonitrile is 100 parts by
mass, and
acrylonitrile is added in batches or continuously, preferably more than three times; a low-temperature
emulsion polymerization method is adopted, and the compound emulsifier at least contains disproportionated
rosin soap, C10-C13 linear
alkyl benzene sulfonic acid and
naphthalene sulfonic acid formaldehyde condensate
sodium salt; the preparation method comprises the following steps of: adding a molecular weight
regulator into a compound emulsifier, preferably 3.2-6.5 parts by weight, more preferably 3.8-6.0 parts by weight of the compound emulsifier, adding the molecular weight
regulator once or multiple times, synthesizing
butyronitrile rubber cement, adding a terminating agent, degassing, condensing, washing and
drying to obtain the
butyronitrile rubber. According to the invention, the
nitrile rubber with good thermo-oxidative
aging resistance is produced, wherein the content of bound acrylonitrile is 17-20%, and the binding amount of
Mooney viscosity # imgabs0 # reactive anti-aging agent is 1-2%.
