Description

Contain the rubber combination of cyclic polysulfide as vulcanizing agent
The application be submitted on October 13rd, 2004, application number is 200480007072.3, denomination of invention is divided an application for the Chinese invention patent application of " containing cyclic polysulfide as the rubber combination of vulcanizing agent and by the pneumatic tyre of its preparation ".
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of rubber combination and reach pneumatic tyre by its preparation; But said compsn contain cyclic polysulfide as vulcanizing agent and have the sulphur vulcanized rubber multiple improvement curability (for example; Combine other specific components in some cases, resistance to heat aging, heat generation, fracture characteristics, resistance to fatigue, wet and slippery property, adhesion property, ice and snow road braking quality, high speed weather resistance, rolling resistance, lateral stability, high firmness, HS, high elongation rate etc.).
Background technology
Because the cross-linked rubber that obtains through sulfur cross-linking comprises polysulfidic bond, so its thermotolerance and overcure-reversion are poor.In order to improve the problem of thermotolerance and overcure-reversion; Known vulcanizing agent for example tetrasulfide polymkeric substance or cyclic polysulfide is effective (Sho Yamazaki; Deng: The Society ofRubber industry, Japan, 1981Research Presentation Conference Abstract; P.532-17, and open (Kokai) No.10-120788 of japanese unexamined patent publication No.).Especially; Cyclic polysulfide is preferred with regard to cross-linking efficiency; But there are some problems in the method for preparing cyclic polysulfide of report so far; As prepare process long, use expensive material etc., but thereby shortage practicality (being open (Kokai) No.58-122944 of japanese patent and japanese unexamined patent publication No. (Kokai) No.2002-293783).
In recent years, pneumatic tyre improves in many aspects.In these improved, in order to improve the resistant to thermal aging performance, japanese unexamined patent publication No. open (Kokai) No.6-57040 had proposed the crosslinked method (promptly sneaking into a large amount of vulcanization accelerators to reduce the ratio of polysulfidic bond) of EV, but it has the relatively poor problem of dynamic resistance to fatigue.Therefore in open (Kokai) No.2002-293783 of japanese unexamined patent publication No., disclose a kind of method that solves this balance between resistance to heat aging and the dynamic resistance to fatigue, but situation can not be satisfied the demand still.
In addition, the tire tread glue of using as pneumatic tyre owing to improve wear resistance or adhesion property is essential, has found the rubber combination with high tensile or elongation at break.On the other hand, tire tread glue is degraded easily.Be accompanied by agingly, sclerosis and loss of adhesion takes place in tyre surface.Moreover, under some situation, even danger such as separation of tread are arranged.For improving the sticking power persistence of high-performance tire; For example making of vulcanizing agent or vulcanization accelerator has been used as research; But particularly in having the rubber combination of mass filler, can not satisfy sticking power and its persistence (referring to open (Kokai) No.2001-348461 of japanese unexamined patent publication No. and open (Kokai) No.10-151906 of japanese unexamined patent publication No.) simultaneously with gratifying level.
For impact plies rubber,, the rubber combination of high tensile and elongation at break is provided in searching in order to improve the high speed weather resistance.On the other hand, the high firmness impact plies rubber and the low tan δ impact plies rubber that is used to improve fuel efficiency of control stability also have been used to improve in searching.These physical propertiess are in the balance state.Consider the rubber combination that high firmness, HS and elongation is provided and can caused tan δ to raise in searching from this angle.
In addition; In in recent years to airtyred multiple improvement; For bead filler rubber,, the rubber combination (for example referring to open (Kokai) No.2002-105249 of japanese unexamined patent publication No.) of high tensile and elongation at break is provided in searching in order to improve resistance to fatigue.On the other hand, the high firmness impact plies rubber and the low tan δ impact plies rubber that is used to improve fuel efficiency (for example referring to open (Kokai) No.5-51487 of japanese unexamined patent publication No.) of control stability also have been used to improve in searching.These physical propertiess are in the balance state.Consider the rubber combination that high firmness, HS and elongation is provided and can caused tan δ to raise in searching from this angle.
Existence is to the airtyred demand of drivable in emergency circumstances, and this tire can make it even be used for being pierced during automobile etc., going under the situation such as burning certain distance and reduce internal pressure rapidly, i.e. run flat tire.For satisfying this demand, multiple suggestion has been proposed.As a kind of suggestion, for example open (Kokai) No.10-297226 of japanese unexamined patent publication No. and open (Tokuhyo) No.2001-519279 of japanese national disclose the upholder (center ring) and use its to support the pneumatic tyre that pierces through or alternate manner damages so that can run flat operation of running flat have been installed on the wheel rim of airtyred cavity.The rubber that is used for the side enhancement layer of this run flat tire requires to have low heating property and high firmness characteristic, and has sneaked into a large amount of polybutadiene rubbers (BR) thus or used the high crosslink density prescription.Yet; Said sidewall Reinforced Rubber requires to have strong thermotolerance and resistance to fatigue characteristic, therefore if attempt crosslinked thermotolerance (just sneaking into vulcanization accelerator that its amount Duos than the sulphur ratio with raising monosulfidic bond and disulfide linkage), then the bending fatigue strength meeting variation of improving through EV; And conversely; If use conventional crosslinked (that is to say that the amount that improves sulphur surpasses said promotor and the ratio that improves polysulfide), then can improve bending fatigue strength; But thermotolerance or aging resistance meeting variation that is to say that this is a self-contradictory problem.
In addition, the prescription of sidewall Reinforced Rubber comprises a large amount of polybutadiene rubbers, even therefore new product (before aging) also only has low elongation at break, thereby (aging back) its persistence that runs flat is limited behind the life-time service.In addition, because run flat tire has thick side members, therefore when sulfuration, the heat conduction of inside tires is difficult.When high temperature vulcanized, will produce huge difference near surface and internal physical character, and when cryogenic vulcanization, have the problem of producing rate variance.
The center ring 1 that runs flat as shown in Figure 1 is placed in the inner chamber 3 of pneumatic tyre 2, and it is made up of endless metal shell 4 and resilient ring 5 and is supported on the wheel rim 6.The resilient ring of the said center ring that runs flat need have low heat generation and high firmness; If but hardness increases (cross-linking density increase) and keeps low heat generation simultaneously; Then elongation at break can diminish, thereby can be restricted in the persistence of the operating period that runs flat.In addition, the resilient ring of center ring 1 contacts with said wheel rim all the time, and the heat that produces because of braking during normal running is sent to said wheel rim, thereby wheel rim is exposed under the quite high temperature for a long time.If therefore the resistance to heat aging of rubber is poor, then can exist in the problem that can not embody estimated performance under the state of running flat.
In addition; Airtyred air retaining wall often uses butyl type rubber; Like butyl rubber or halogenated butyl rubber (as referring to open (Kokai) No.10-87884 of japanese unexamined patent publication No.); But the poor performance of reinforcement such as butyl rubber carbon black, so the mechanical property of the compsn of butyl rubber is relatively poor and in application, be restricted.
In addition, require airtyred belt mixture that high rigidity is provided, if but attempt to improve rigidity through the sulfur consumption that increases carbon black loading or increase as vulcanizing agent or vulcanization accelerator, then elongation can descend and resistance to fatigue can reduce.The result can take place to separate and in tire, have problems at the end of said belt, thereby guarantees that high rigidity and elongation are necessary (japanese unexamined patent publication No. open (KoKai) No.2001-226528).In addition,, proposed to sneak into a large amount of sulphur (japanese unexamined patent publication No. open (Kokai) No.2000-233603), but this can cause resistance to heat aging to descend in order to obtain strong keying action.In order to improve resistance to heat aging, can increase inhibitor, but this can cause being easy to the keying action of infringement and wire (metal).
Detailed Description Of The Invention
So the objective of the invention is to solve the various problems that exists in the conventional pneumatic industry, and provide the rubber combination of multiple improvement physical properties to reach pneumatic tyre by its preparation with vulcanized rubber through the sulfur vulcanizing agent effect of using cyclic polysulfide to replace at least partly using always.
According to the present invention, but a kind of sulphur vulcanized rubber (A) that contains 100 weight parts is provided and as the rubber combination of formula (I) cyclic polysulfide (B) of 0.1~30 weight part of vulcanizing agent:
