Definitions

  • the present invention relates to new organosilyl polysulfides and their use as reinforcing additives for rubber, rubber mixtures containing these organosilyl polysulfides and the use of these organosilyl polysulfides for the production of these rubber mixtures, vulcanizates obtainable from these rubber mixtures and moldings, in particular tires.
  • Sulfur-containing organosilicon compounds which can be used as reinforcing additives in rubber mixtures are known.
  • DE-A 2141159, DE-A 2141160 and DE-A 2255577 describe sulfur-containing organosilanes as reinforcing additives, in particular for rubber vulcanizates containing silica for tire applications.
  • the sulfur-containing organosilanes disclosed there are derived from bis(trialkoxysilylalkyl)polysulfides; bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide (TESPT), for example, is explicitly described.
  • DE-A 2035778 also discloses organosilane-based reinforcing additives which are derived from trialkoxysilylpropyl compounds.
  • a disadvantage of these connections known from the prior art is that the hysteresis losses are reduced not only at high temperatures (approx. 60° C., correlating with the rolling resistance) but also at low temperatures (0° C.). In principle, a reduction in the hysteresis losses is desirable because it leads to a reduction in the rolling resistance of motor vehicle tires and thus to lower fuel consumption by the vehicles.
  • a low hysteresis at low temperatures (0 to 20°C) is associated with poor wet skid resistance of vehicle tires. It is therefore difficult to reconcile the two requirements of low rolling resistance and good wet skid resistance at the same time.
  • EP-A 447066 also describes the use of sulphur-containing organosilanes as adhesion promoters in rubber mixtures for the production of tire treads which are filled to a large extent with silica.
  • a special, silane-modified rubber, a silicic acid filler and adhesion promoters based on special trialkoxyalkyl polysulfides made it possible to reduce the rolling resistance of the tire.
  • these tire compounds also show that the adhesion promoters mentioned not only reduce the rolling resistance, but also the reduce wet grip.
  • EP-A 0680997 also discloses the use of certain bis-alkoxy/alkyl-substituted silylmethylene polysulfides as reinforcing additives for rubber mixtures with good rolling resistance and good wet grip.
  • the disadvantage here is on the one hand that the The raw materials used in the production of the reinforcing additives have to be produced in a complex manner via photochlorination and, on the other hand, the rubbers have a significant deterioration in performance properties such as strength, elongation at break and hardness.
  • EP-A 3622015 describes the use of bis(dimethylethoxysilylisobutylene)polysulfide as a reinforcing additive for rubber mixtures with good rolling resistance and good wet grip properties.
  • the object of the present invention was therefore to provide new reinforcing additives for rubbers based on sulfur-containing organosilicon compounds, and new rubber mixtures, which overcome the abovementioned disadvantages of the prior art.
  • organosilyl polysulfides each of which has a propylene group or a propylene group branched in the 2-position as a spacer between the silicon and sulfur atoms, are very suitable as reinforcing additives in rubber compounds without it being the case during the vulcanization of the rubber compound to the emission of volatile organic components (VOC).
  • VOC volatile organic components
  • the new organosilyl polysulfides bring about a rapid full vulcanization time (T95) in the rubber mixtures and lead to advantageous temperature-dependent hysteresis properties in the vulcanizates obtainable from them and to positive performance properties, such as high strength and high elongation at break.
  • tires made from these vulcanizates are distinguished by low rolling resistance and good wet grip.
  • the new organosilyl polysulfides are characterized by very advantageous low mixture viscosities, which makes it easier to produce the mixture.
  • the present invention therefore relates to new organosilyl polysulfides of the formula (I) wherein

Abstract

Les nouveaux polysulfures organosilylés représentés par la formule (I), dans laquelle les substituants R1 à R8 et l'indice x ont les significations indiquées dans la description, conviennent remarquablement à la fabrication de mélanges de caoutchouc présentant des propriétés de mélange améliorées, des vulcanisats et des produits en caoutchouc pouvant être obtenus à partir de ceux-ci, lesquels se caractérisent par une dureté, une résistance et un allongement à la rupture supérieurs ainsi qu'une faible résistance au roulement des pneumatiques fabriqués à partir de ceux-ci.
