摘要:
The invention concerns a tyre tread comprising a crosslinkable rubber composition comprising at least a styrene and a butadiene copolymer prepared in emulsion, and a method for improving wear resistance of such a tyre tread. The invention concerns a tyre tread including for the major part black carbon as reinforcing filler. The inventive tyre tread includes at least a crosslinkable rubber composition comprising at least a styrene and butadiene elastomeric copolymer prepared in emulsion and a reinforcing filler comprising as major constituent carbon black, said carbon black being present in said composition in an amount not less than 55 parts per hundred parts of said or each polymeric elastomer. Said composition is characterised in that each or said copolymer comprises an emulsifier in an amount varying substantially between 1 and 3.5 parts per hundred of said or each elastomeric copolymer.

The invention relates to a tyre tread comprising an elastomer composition reinforced with silica and made from at least (pce = parts by weight per 100 parts of diene elastomer): (i) a diene elastomer; (ii) by way of a reinforcing filler, more than 80 pce of an inorganic filler consisting wholly or partly of a silica (called LS) having the following characteristics: (a) a BET specific surface area of between 50 and 100 m2/g; (b) an average particle size d¿w? of between 50 and 350 nm; (iii) a coupling agent that is used to link the reinforcing inorganic filler and the diene elastomer; (iv) a sulphur-based vulcanisation system. Preferably, said LS silica has a deagglomeration speed α that is greater than 5.10 -3 νm-1/min (measured with the deagglomeration test using ultrasound). In comparison to a standard tyre tread for green tyres reinforced with a silica having a higher specific surface area, the inventive tyre tread is provided with an improved performance trade-off in terms of wear resistance, rolling resistance, adhesion and drift thrust.

The invention concerns a tyre or a running tread incorporating an elastomeric composition with improved vulcanization kinetics, based on at least a diene elastomer, a reinforcing inorganic filler and, as coupling agent (inorganic filler/elastomer), a bis-alkoxysilane tetrasulphide of formula (I) wherein: the symbols R1, identical or different, represent each a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected among alkyls, linear or branched, having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R2 and R3, identical or different, represent each a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected among alkyls, linear or branched, having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and the phenyl radical; x is an integer or a fraction number between 3 and 5.

The invention concerns a tyre tread comprising a crosslinkable rubber composition including at least a styrene and a butadiene copolymer prepared in emulsion, and a method for improving the wear resistance of such a tread. The invention concerns a tyre tread comprising for the major part a white reinforcing filler as reinforcement filler. The inventive tyre tread comprises a crosslinkable rubber composition including at least a styrene and a butadiene copolymer prepared in emulsion and a reinforcing filler including as major component a white reinforcing filler, said white reinforcing filler being present in said composition in an amount not less that 40 parts per hundred parts of said or each polymeric elastomer. Said composition is characterised in that said or each copolymer comprising an emulsifier in an amount substantially varying between 1 to 3.5 parts per hundred parts of said or each elastomeric copolymer.

The invention relates to a tyre tread comprising an elastomer composition reinforced with an inorganic filler and made from at least: (i) a diene elastomer; (ii) by way of a reinforcing inorganic filler, more than 80 pce of a silica having a low specific surface area and the following characteristics: (a) a BET specific surface area of less than 130 m2/g; (b) an average particle size d¿w? of between 30 and 300 nm; (iii) a coupling agent that is used to connect the reinforcing inorganic filler and the diene elastomer; (iv) and a vulcanisation system comprising sulphur, a vulcanisation accelerator and, by way of a vulcanising activator, between 0.5 and 1.5 pce of zinc. Preferably, said silica has a deagglomeration speed α that is greater than 5.10?3 νm1¿/min (measured with the deagglomeration test using ultrasound). In comparison to a standard tyre tread for green tyres reinforced with a silica having a higher specific surface area, the inventive tyre tread is provided with an improved performance trade-off (wear resistance/rolling resistance/wet surface adhesion). Owing to the low zinc level, an increase in induction times during vulcanisation can be mitigated when a silica having a low specific surface area is used.
