Abstract:
The invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of silicate comprising: reacting rice husk ash with a silicate precursor P1 to obtain a silicate S2 having a SiO2/MxO molar ratio MR2, in which the precursor P1 is either a silicate S1 having a SiO2/MxO molar ratio MR1 such that MR2>MR1, or a mixture of sand with metal hydroxide.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of a polycarboxylic acid in the preparation of an elastomer composition comprising a precipitated silica as reinforcing inorganic filler and an elastomer, in which said polycarboxylic acid and said precipitated silica are incorporated, independently of each other, into an elastomer.The invention also relates to elastomer compositions and to a process for preparing the same.
