摘要:
A method for forming a vulcanizable composition of matter, the method comprising providing a polymer cement or latex comprising at least one rubber, adding at least one processing aid to the cement or latex to form a modified rubber cement or latex, isolating the rubber and at least one processing aid to form a premix, and mixing the premix with carbon black.
摘要:
A multi-functional polymer defined by the formula (Q-Rn-Z-P2—Y where (Q-R)n is a functionality cluster, Q is a functional group, R is a multi-valent organic group, P2 is a long-chain polymer, n is an integer from about 2 to about 10, Y is a proton, a weak functional group, or a selective functional group, and Z is a branch point where the functionality clusters join the long-chain polymer.
摘要:
A tire component including a tire tread that comprises a vulcanized rubber, a rubber filler, and a modified rubber, where the modified rubber i) contains pendent or functional groups that contain carboxylic acid or anhydride groups, ii) has pendently grafted thereto a polymerized metal salt of an unsaturated carboxylic acid, or iii) contains both i and ii. The use of such modified rubbers in tire components advantageously increases the G′ of such components.
摘要:
A method, and product thereof, for modifying the surface of recycled sulfur-cured rubber via surface devulcanization that minimizes alteration of the network structure of the recycled sulfur-cured rubber, while generating strong tack between mixed recycled rubber and fresh rubber for optimal adhesion upon subsequent co-curing. In one embodiment, the surface of recycled rubber is devulcanized by treating recycled rubber with a thiol and a base dissolved in a solvent that does not effectively penetrate and only minimally swells vulcanized rubbers.
摘要:
A polymer composition of low gas permeability. The composition includes an exfoliated organically-modified clay, butyl rubber, and a polymeric exfoliant. A method for producing the butyl composition by dry mixing the butyl rubber with the exfoliated clay is also provided.
摘要:
A device for an injection molding machine for releasably fastening a tool member to a fixing plate. The device includes a profiled part provided either on the fixing plate or on the tool member and a fixing element attached to the other component and provided with engaging members adapted to be moved relative to the profiled part and be brought into engagement with it to fasten the tool member and fixing plate together. The engaging members are one or more elongated carrier members that are brought into engagement with a profile on the profiled part, and a locking component is provided, displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the carrier members to move the carrier members into engagement with the profiled part.
摘要:
Provided are enophile functionalized polymer particles, nano-sized inorganic metal particles such as Al(OH)3 particles, and preparations thereof. Also provided is a method of improving the properties of a rubber composition, such as a tire, by formulating the rubber to incorporate nano-sized inorganic metal particles such as Al(OH)3. The composition exhibits improved properties including bonding rubber, tensile strength, tear strength, and wet traction, among others. A novel rubber composition comprising nano-sized inorganic metal particles is also disclosed.

摘要:
Methods are provided for making solution masterbatches containing a diene elastomer in an organic solvent and a silica filler, having a first average particle size, that is ground in an organic solvent to form a silica having a reduced second average particle size. Grinding of the silica in the organic solvent, with or without other ingredients including the elastomer, produces a solution masterbatch in which the silica is mixed with and well dispersed in the elastomer. The use of such desolventized solution masterbatches in vulcanizable rubber compounds results in excellent processing characteristics allowing for the reduced use of processing aids such as oil. The compound also demonstrates improved properties, including reduced hysteresis.
摘要:
An improved process for the continuous alkylation of phenol with olefins having 6 to 12 carbon atoms in the liquid phase and in the presence of strongly acid ion exchange resin catalysts mounted in a fixed bed. The phenol and olefins are passed in a first stage at temperatures from about 80.degree. to 120.degree. C. over an ion exchange resin catalyst having an exchange capacity of from 50 to 96 m Val per 100 ml of catalyst and then passed in a second stage at temperatures about 110.degree. to 130.degree. C. over another ion exchange resin catalyst having an exchange capacity of from 100 to 180 m Val per 100 ml of catalyst.
