Description

Modified diene polymer and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a modified diene polymer, a preparation method of the modified diene polymer, the modified diene polymer prepared by the method, and application of the modified diene polymer as rubber-based rubber.
Background
In recent years, with the development of the automobile industry and the rising of the oil price, people pay more attention to the safety and energy saving of automobiles, and tires having high wet skid resistance and low rolling resistance are required. However, it is often difficult to achieve both improved wet skid resistance and reduced rolling resistance. Therefore, according to different use requirements, an optimum balance between high wet skid resistance and low rolling resistance needs to be found.
For producing a tire with low rolling resistance, the anion-polymerized solution-polymerized butylbenzene has more remarkable advantages than emulsion-polymerized butylbenzene because the anion solution polymerization can effectively adjust the content and the glass transition temperature of a conjugated diene structural unit with a double bond in a side chain. This advantage is advantageous for balancing the relationship between the wet skid resistance and the rolling resistance of the tire. Further, studies have shown that the addition of a silane coupling agent during the kneading of a rubber composition can promote the dispersion of a filler in the raw rubber to some extent and improve the relationship between the wet skid resistance and the rolling resistance of the rubber to some extent, but the reactivity of the silane coupling agent with the raw rubber and carbon black is lowered by the influence of other additives during the kneading of the rubber composition. Further, addition of the silane coupling agent during the kneading of the rubber composition also causes an unpleasant odor. It is disclosed in EP447066 that a silane having a structure represented by formula (1) can be used as a modifier to improve wet skid resistance and reduce rolling resistance of styrene-butadiene rubber:
USi(OR')jR''4-i-jthe compound of the formula (1),
wherein U is halogen, R 'and R' are C1-C20J is an integer from 1 to 4, i is an integer from 0 to 2, and the sum of i and j is from 2 to 4. The silane having the structure represented by formula (1) can be bonded to a polymer molecular chain by reacting a halogen with a catalyst residue at the end of the polymer molecular chain, however, usually, one polymer molecular chain can be bonded with only one silane molecule, and only a small influence is exerted on the interaction between the polymer molecular chains, and the wet skid resistance of the rubber cannot be effectively improved and the rolling resistance is reduced.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defect that the relation between the wet-skid resistance and the rolling resistance of rubber cannot be effectively improved by adopting the conventional method, and provides a modified diene polymer with high wet-skid resistance and low rolling resistance, a preparation method of the modified diene polymer, the modified diene polymer prepared by the method and application of the modified diene polymer.

wherein R is1-R4Is C1-C20A straight or branched hydrocarbon group or C containing a hetero atom1-C20The heteroatom is selected from one or more of halogen, oxygen, sulfur, silicon and phosphorus.
The present invention also provides a process for preparing a modified diene polymer, wherein the process comprises contacting a diene polymer comprising monovinylarene structural units and conjugated diene structural units with a silane coupling agent in an inert atmosphere and in the presence of an initiator, under conditions such that the silane coupling agent is chemically bonded to the diene polymer; the number average molecular weight of the diene polymer is 5-100 ten thousand, and the content of the conjugated diene structural unit with double bonds in the side chain in the diene polymer is 15-85 wt%, preferably 30-60 wt%, based on the weight of the conjugated diene structural unit in the diene polymer, and the silane coupling agent has a structure shown in a formula (II):
wherein R is1-R4Is C1-C20A straight or branched hydrocarbon group or C containing a hetero atom1-C20The heteroatom is selected from one or more of halogen, oxygen, sulfur, silicon and phosphorus.
The invention also provides another preparation method of the modified diene polymer, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
(1) in an inert atmosphere and in the presence of an initiator, carrying out polymerization reaction on monovinylarene and conjugated diene in a solvent to obtain a reaction product containing a diene polymer, wherein the polymerization reaction conditions enable the number average molecular weight of the obtained diene polymer to be 5-100 ten thousand, and the content of a conjugated diene structural unit with a double bond in a side chain in the diene polymer is 15-85 wt%, preferably 30-60 wt% based on the weight of the conjugated diene structural unit in the diene polymer;

The invention also provides the modified diene polymer prepared by the method.
In addition, the invention also provides the application of the modified diene polymer as rubber-based rubber.
As described above, in the prior art, the silane coupling agent is generally added during the mixing of the rubber mixture to improve the wet skid resistance of the rubber and to reduce the rolling resistance thereof, but the reactivity of the silane coupling agent with the raw rubber and the carbon black is reduced at this time, and it is difficult to significantly improve the relationship between the wet skid resistance and the rolling resistance of the rubber and an unpleasant odor is generated. The present inventors have made intensive studies and have found that, by chemically bonding a silane coupling agent to a diene polymer and using the resulting modified diene polymer as a whole as a part or whole of a rubber-based rubber, it is possible to avoid the problem of a decrease in the reactivity of the silane coupling agent with a raw rubber and carbon black caused during rubber compounding, and to effectively balance the relationship between wet skid resistance and rolling resistance of a tire made of the modified diene polymer, and also to improve an unpleasant odor caused by the use of the silane coupling agent during rubber compounding.

The amount of the initiator used in the present invention is not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected depending on the designed molecular weight. It will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that when it is desired to prepare a diene polymer having a relatively large molecular weight, the amount of initiator used can be reduced, but the rate of polymerization will be correspondingly reduced; when it is desired to prepare a diene polymer having a smaller molecular weight, the amount of the initiator used may be increased, but the polymerization rate is increased accordingly.

In the present invention, the pressures are gauge pressures.
According to the present invention, the solvent may be any of various substances capable of acting as a reaction medium in the preparation of the diene polymer, and for example, may be a hydrocarbon solvent and/or an ether solvent.

These solvents may be used alone or in combination. The amount of the solvent to be used may be appropriately selected depending on the amount of the monomer, and for example, the amount of the solvent to be used may be such that the total concentration of the monovinylarene and the conjugated diene is from 1 to 30% by weight, preferably from 5 to 20% by weight.
According to the invention, after the polymerization has been completed, a coupling agent may also be added to the polymerization system in order to couple together at least part of the diene polymers.

The amount of the coupling agent used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and may be suitably selected depending on the amount of the initiator used, and for example, the molar ratio of the coupling agent to the initiator may be 0.1 to 2:1, preferably 0.1 to 1: 1.
According to the present invention, it is preferable that a structure modifier is further added during the preparation of the diene polymer, so that the microstructure of the diene polymer can be effectively controlled. The structure modifier may be any of various existing substances capable of modifying the microstructure of the diene polymer, and may be, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of diethyl ether, dibutyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dioxane, crown ether, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol diethyl ether, triethylamine, tetramethylethylenediamine, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, potassium tert-butoxide, potassium tert-amylate, potassium laurate, potassium alkylbenzenesulfonate and sodium alkylbenzenesulfonate. Generally, the molar ratio of the structure-modifying agent to the initiator used for the preparation of the diene polymer may be from 1 to 100:1, preferably from 80 to 100: 1.
Generally, anionic polymerization systems do not have significant termination and transfer reactions, and the reactive sites remain when all of the monomer is consumed. Therefore, after the polymerization reaction is completed, the resulting polymer solution should be contacted with a terminating agent to inactivate the active centers. The amount of the terminator to be used may be appropriately selected depending on the amount of the initiator to be used for preparing the diene polymer, and in general, the molar ratio of the terminator to the initiator to be used for preparing the diene polymer may be from 0.1 to 1: 1. The terminator may be any of various agents capable of inactivating the anionic active sites, and may be, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of water, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol, preferably isopropanol.
The conditions for contacting the diene polymer with the silane coupling agent in the present invention are not particularly limited as long as the silane coupling agent can be chemically bonded to the diene polymer, and for example, the contacting conditions generally include a contacting temperature, a contacting pressure and a contacting time.
