摘要:
This invention discloses a process for synthesizing a modified crosslinked elastomeric particle which comprises a two-step polymerization of a conjugated diolefin monomer and a vinyl aromatic monomer by emulsion polymerization, wherein the particle is synthesized by the steps of (1) polymerizing a conjugated diolefin monomer, alone or in combination with a vinyl aromatic monomer, and optionally a crosslinking monomer, to create a crosslinked elastomeric core having residual double bonds and an outer surface; (2) polymerizing a monomer of a vinyl aromatic monomer, alone or in combination with a diolefin monomer, to create a polymeric shell, wherein the polymeric shell is grafted to the outer surface of the polymeric core by reacting with the residual double bonds of the polymeric core; and (3) coagulating the core-shell emulsion latex solution to recover the particles.
摘要:
A coupling system for use in a vulcanizable silica-filled rubber composition is disclosed. The coupling system comprises a non-active sulfur containing silane coupling agent for reacting with an associated silica or precipitated silica to produce a hydrophobic silica and a crosslinking reagent for reacting with the non-active sulfur containing silane coupling agent and an associated polymer. Furthermore, a rubber composition is disclosed comprising or produced by using the said coupling system. Finally, a vulcanizable silica-filled rubber compound for use in a tire, a tire component, a belt, a pipe, a hose, a fitting or footwear is disclosed, the compound comprising a diene-based polymer, a filler comprising at least silica or precipitated silica, a non-active sulfur containing silane coupling agent comprising at least one end terminating group reactive with a hydroxyl group contained on the silica, and a crosslinking reagent comprising at least one end terminating group reactive with a functional moiety contained on the non-active sulfur containing silane coupling agent and at least a second end terminating group reactive with the diene-based polymer.
