Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、特に高強度で低発熱性及び耐熱老化性を有するゴム組成物、及び該ゴム組成物を部材に適用した航空機用(リニアモーターカー用も含む)の空気入りラジアルタイヤに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
航空機やリニアモーターカー等に用いられる空気入りラジアルタイヤは、離陸及び着陸の際に、通常のトラック・バス用タイヤに比較して、遥かに高速回転でかつ高荷重を負担して故障(バーストなど)しないことが要求される。その為には、特に故障した場合には重大事故に繋がり兼ねないケース部(台タイヤ)やベルト部の周辺のゴム組成物には、高速かつ大変形の歪みを受けても発熱が小さく、かつ高強度であることが厳しく要求される。
【0003】
従来の航空機用等のタイヤでは、これらの要求を満たす手段として、カーボンブラックの配合量を減らし、カーボン分散助剤を併用したりしていたが、カーボンブラックの配合を減量することは低発熱性にはなるがその分破壊強度等の機械的物性が低下してしまう。また、カーボン分散助剤の併用は、初期段階においては低発熱性と高強度の両立が維持できるものの、摩耗したトレッド部を何度も更生して使用する航空機用等のタイヤでは、ケース部(台タイヤ)がその度に再加硫され、上記分散助剤の副作用である熱老化を起こし、台タイヤの破壊強度を大きく低下させてしまうという問題があった。
【0004】
低発熱化や耐熱老化性の改善は、航空機用タイヤに限られるものではなく、既に乗用車及びトラック・バス用タイヤについて多数の特許文献等が開示されている。例えば、耐熱老化性を有する架橋剤としてのビスマレイミド化合物のトレッドゴムへの適用(例えば、特許文献1及び2参照)、加硫戻り性の改良を目的とするヒドラジド化合物(例えば、特許文献3参照)、及びケース部材の亀裂成長性の改良を目的とするヒドラジド化合物(例えば、特許文献4参照)等の先行技術を挙げることができる。
【0005】
しかしながら、発熱性の抑制と機械的強度の向上は二律背反の関係にあり、両立させて改善することは非常に難しく、特に航空機用タイヤにおいては、その上更に、数回の更生(リトレッド)にも耐えられるだけの耐熱老化性を厳しく要求されるので、これら総ての要求を満足するゴム組成物及び該ゴム組成物を用いた航空機用並びにリニアモーターカー用の空気入りラジアルタイヤは、未だ提供されていないのが現状である。

また本発明の第2の目的は、高速高荷重での走行発熱を抑制し且つ高強度で耐熱老化性に優れ、トレッド部の更生(リトレッド)適性にも優れた空気入りラジアルタイヤ、特に航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤを提供することである。

<9> 前記空気入りラジアルタイヤが、航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤであることを特徴とする上記<8>に記載の空気入りラジアルタイヤ。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明のゴム組成物は、空気入りラジアルタイヤ、特に航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤのプライコーティングゴム、プライ間ゴム、ベルトコーティングゴム、ベルト間クッションゴム、ベルト端カバーゴム、及びスペースゴムの内、少なくとも1部材に適用されるゴム組成物であって、(1)天然ゴム及び/又は合成イソプレンゴム50〜100質量部と合成ジエン系ゴム50〜0質量部からなるゴム成分100質量部に対して、(2)HAF(N330)以上の高補強性カーボンブラックを30〜65質量部と、(3)一般式(I)で表されるビスマレイミド化合物を1〜3質量部と、(4)一般式(II)で表されるヒドラジド化合物を0.5〜2質量部を、配合したことを特徴とする。
【0010】
上記の様な配合からなる本発明のゴム組成物は、その加硫物の物性が発熱性が低く高弾性で高強度であり、且つ耐熱老化性にも優れているので、更生(リトレッド)後もこれらの優れた物性を保持できる。即ち、耐リバージョン性及び耐久性に優れているので、空気入りラジアルタイヤ、特に航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤ並びにリニアモーターカー等に用いられる空気入りラジアルタイヤのゴム部材、特に、プライコーティングゴム、プライ間ゴム、ベルトコーティングゴム、ベルト間クッションゴム、ベルト端カバーゴム、及びスペースゴム等の部材に好適に適用できる。
【0011】
特に、室温(25℃)におけるレジリエンスが60以上、好ましくは65以上である本発明のゴム組成物は、発熱性が更に低く高弾性で高強度であり且つ耐熱老化性にも優れるので、空気入りラジアルタイヤ、特に航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤのゴム部材に適用すると、更生(リトレッド)後も優れた物性を保持でき、耐リバージョン性及び耐久性に優れた空気入りラジアルタイヤを提供することができる。
以下、本発明のゴム組成物及び該組成物を部材とする空気入りラジアルタイヤ、特に航空機用空気入りラジアルタイヤについて、詳細に説明する。
【0012】
(ゴム成分)
本発明のゴム組成物のマトリックスをなすゴム成分は、天然ゴム(NR)及び/又は合成イソプレンゴム(IR)の50〜100質量部と該IRを除く合成ジエン系ゴムの50〜0質量部からなる。
上記の合成ジエン系ゴムとしては、特に制限はなく、目的に応じて適宜に選択することができる。具体的には、例えば、スチレン−ブタジエンゴム(SBR)、ブタジエンゴム(BR)、アクリロニトリル−ブタジエンゴム(NBR)、クロロプレンゴム(CR)、ブチルゴム(IIR)、ハロゲン化ブチルゴム(X−IIR)、エチレン−プロピレン−ジエン系共重合体ゴム(EPDM)等が好適に挙げられる。これらの合成ジエン系ゴムは、1種を単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上を併用して用いてもよい。
尚、本発明に用いるゴム成分としては、低発熱性と破壊特性と耐摩耗性を高いレベルで兼ね備え、且つ熱老化後にも良好な耐リバージョン性を保持する為に、60質量部以上の天然ゴム(NR)を配合することが好ましいく、更に70質量部以上の天然ゴム(NR)を配合することがより好ましい。
【0013】
(カーボンブラック)
本発明のゴム組成物には、機械的強度や耐磨耗性等を維持しながら低発熱性を確保する為に、HAF(N330)以上の高補強性カーボンブラックが30〜65質量部配合される。上記のHAF(N330)以上の高補強性のカーボンブラックとは、ヨウ素吸着量やDBP吸油量等で評価される比表面積(m/g)がHAFカーボンと同等或いはそれより大きいカーボンブラックを指し、ゴム組成物に配合した時に弾性率や破壊強度等を向上させる効果がHAFカーボンと同等或いはそれより高いカーボンブラックのことを意味する。
補強性がHAF(N330)未満のカーボンブラックを使用すると、高破壊強度と低発熱特性を両立させて獲得することが困難になる。また、上記カーボンブラックの配合量が30質量部未満であると、機械的強度や耐磨耗性等が不十分であり、一方、該配合量が65質量部を越えると、発熱特性が悪くなる。
【0014】
本発明に用いる上記カーボンブラックの具体的としては、例えば、N330(HAF)、N335、N339、N343、N347(HAF−HS)、N351、N356、N358、N375、N234、N231(ISAF−LM)、N220(ISAF−HM)、N134、N121、N110(SAF)、等のカーボンブラックが挙げられる。
上記のカーボンブラックの中でも、N330(HAF)、N335、N339、N343、N347(HAF−HS)、N351、N356、N358、N375のカーボンが好ましく、特に、N330(HAF)、N335、N339、N343、N347(HAF−HS)のカーボンがより好ましい。
上記のカーボンブラックは、1種を単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上を併用して用いてもよい。
【0015】
(ビスマレイミド化合物)
本発明のゴム組成物には、耐熱性や耐熱老化性及び動的貯蔵弾性率(E′)等を向上させる為に、下記一般式(I)で表されるビスマレイミド化合物が1〜3質量部配合される。
【化5】
Figure 2004217726
上記一般式(I)において、Aは炭素数6〜18の2価の芳香族基、又は炭素数7〜24の2価のアルキル芳香族基を表し、xとyは夫々独立に0〜3の整数を表す。尚、上記一般式(I)で表されるビスマレイミド化合物において、x又はyが4以上になると、分子量が大きくなり過ぎて、配合量の割には目的とする耐熱老化性や動的貯蔵弾性率等の向上効果が得られないため不都合である。
【0016】
一般式(I)で表されるビスマレイミド化合物の具体例としては、例えば、N,N′−1,2−フェニレンジマレイミド、N,N′−1,3−フェニレンジマレイミド、N,N′−1,4−フェニレンジマレイミド、N,N′−(4,4′−ジフェニルメタン)ビスマレイミド、2、2−ビス[4−(4−マレイミドフェノキシ)フェニル]プロパン、ビス(3−エチル−5−メチル−4−マレイミドフェニル]メタン等を好適に挙げることができる。これらのビスマレイミド化合物は、1種以上を配合することもできる。
上記のビスマレイミド化合物の中でも、N,N′−1,2−フェニレンジマレイミド、N,N′−1,3−フェニレンジマレイミド、N,N′−1,4−フェニレンジマレイミドが好ましく、特にN,N′−(4,4′−ジフェニルメタン)ビスマレイミドが効果が顕著な点で更に好ましい。
【0017】
本発明のゴム組成物において、上記一般式(I)で表されるビスマレイミド化合物の配合量は、ゴム成分100質量部に対して1〜3質量部である。該配合量が1質量部未満であると、耐熱老化性や動的貯蔵弾性率等の向上効果が不十分であり、一方、該配合量が3質量部を超えると、破壊物性及び耐屈曲疲労性が低下する。
【0018】
(ヒドラジド化合物)
また本発明のゴム組成物には、発熱を抑制し加硫戻り等に起因する耐熱老化性等を改善する為に、下記一般式(II)で表されるヒドラジド化合物が0.5〜2質量部配合される。
【化6】
Figure 2004217726
【0019】
上記一般式(II)において、Bは炭素数2〜18の多価の非環式脂肪族基(該官能基は、その中に芳香族基を含んでいてもよい。)、炭素数5〜20の多価の環式脂肪族基、炭素数6〜18の多価の芳香族基、又は炭素数7〜24の多価のアルキル芳香族基を表し、該官能基は酸素原子、窒素原子、硫黄原子の内少なくとも1種のヘテロ原子を含んでいてもよい。Xは水素原子、ヒドロキシ基、アミノ基、又はメルカプト基を表す。RとRは夫々独立に水素原子、又は炭素数1〜18のアルキル基、シクロアルキル基、芳香族環を表し、該置換基は酸素原子、窒素原子、硫黄原子の内少なくとも1種のヘテロ原子を含んでいてもよい。zは1〜3の整数を表す。
【0020】
上記一般式(II)で表されるヒドラジド化合物の具体例としては、例えば、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジド(HNH)の誘導体の他、N’−(1,3−ジメチルブチリデン)サリチル酸ヒドラジド(BMS)、4−ヒドロキシ安息香酸ヒドラジド、アントラニル酸ヒドラジド、1−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジドの各誘導体、等が好適に挙げられる。
【0021】
上記3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジド(HNH)の誘導体としては、例えば、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸(1−メチルエチリデン)ヒドラジド、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸(1−メチルプロピリデン)ヒドラジド、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸(1,3−ジメチルプロピリデン)ヒドラジド、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸(1−フェニルエチリデン)ヒドラジド等の3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジド等が挙げられる。
【0022】
これらの中でも、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジド(例えば、大塚化学(株)製の商品名「HNH」がこの化合物に該当する。)の誘導体や、N’−(1,3−ジメチルブチリデン)サリチル酸ヒドラジド(例えば、大塚化学(株)製の商品名「BMS」がこの化合物に該当する。)の誘導体は、低発熱性を維持しながらムーニー粘度を低く抑えることができる点で好ましい。特に、3−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジド(「HNH」)の誘導体である3−ヒドロキシ−N’−(1,3−ジメチルブチリデン)−2−ナフトエ酸ヒドラジドが効果が顕著な点で好ましく、該化合物の市販品としては、例えば大塚化学(株)製の商品名「BMH」を好適に使用することができる。
【0023】
上記一般式(II)で表されるヒドラジド化合物は、耐リバージョン性に優れ、ゴム成分として特に天然ゴムを含むゴム組成物に好適であり、高温加硫条件下でもその性能の低下が少ない。該ヒドラジド化合物は、1種を単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上を併用してもよい。
尚、上記一般式(II)で表されるヒドラジド化合物は、Pant,U.C.;Ramchandran,Reena;Joshi,B.C.Rev.Roum.Chim.(1979)24(3),471−82の文献に記載された方法に基いて製造することができる。
【0024】
本発明のゴム組成物における上記ヒドラジド化合物の配合量は、該ゴム成分100質量部に対し、0.5〜2質量部である。該ヒドラジド化合物の配合量が、0.5質量部未満であると、ゴム組成物の加硫戻り及び耐熱老化性の改善効果が十分でなく、一方、該含有量が2質量部を超えると、ゴム組成物の低発熱性が悪化してしまう。
【0025】
(その他の成分)
本発明のゴム組成物には、前述した必須成分の他に、本発明の効果を損なわない範囲で、目的ないし必要に応じて、その他の成分を適宜に選択して配合することができる。その他の成分としては、例えば、軟化剤、粘着賦与剤、分散剤、無機充填材、硫黄等の加硫剤、チアゾール系やスルフェンアミド系等の加硫促進剤、加硫助剤、酸化亜鉛、ステアリン酸、老化防止剤、酸化防止剤、オゾン劣化防止剤、着色剤、帯電防止剤、滑剤、カップリング剤、発泡剤、発泡助剤等の添加剤の他、ゴム業界で通常用いられる各種の公知配合薬品等が挙げられる。これらは、市販品を使用することができる。
【0026】
上記軟化剤としては、特に制限はなく、目的に応じて適宜選択することができるが、アロマチック系オイル、ナフテン系オイル、パラフィン系オイル、エステル系オイル等のプロセスオイル、液状ポリマー、樹脂などが好適に挙げられる。上記プロセスオイル等の油分が前記ゴム組成物に含まれていると、該ゴム組成物の流動性を制御することができ、該ゴム組成物の加硫前の粘度を低下させ、その流動性を高めることができ、良好に押出しや圧延(カレンダー)作業等を行なうことができる点で有利である。
【0027】
上記無機充填剤としては、例えば、シリカ、水酸化アルミニウム、クレー等が挙げられる。該無機充填剤の中でも、シリカ、水酸化アルミニウム等は補強性が比較的高い点で好ましく、クレー等はその形状特性を生かした効果が得られる点で有効である。
【0028】
該無機充填剤の添加量としては、特に制限はなく、その目的に応じて適宜に設定できるが、低発熱性や耐亀裂成長性、耐クリープ性、高温加硫時の耐破壊特性等をバランスよく改良するためには、前記ゴム成分100質量部に対し、10〜50質量部程度が好ましく、30〜40質量部がより好ましい。
【0029】
(ゴム組成物の製造)
本発明のゴム組成物は、前述したゴム成分に、カーボンブラック、ビスマレイミド化合物、ヒドラジド化合物を配合し、更に、亜鉛華、ステアリン酸、老化防止剤、硫黄、加硫促進剤、カーボンブラック分散剤、その他、目的或いは必要に応じて適宜に選択した添加剤を混練りして、押出或いは圧延した後、加硫することにより製造することができる。
【0030】
上記混練りの条件としては、特に制限はなく、混練り装置の投入体積やローターの回転速度、ラム圧等、及び混練り温度や混練り時間、混練り装置の種類等の諸条件について目的に応じて適宜に選択することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a rubber composition having particularly high strength, low heat buildup and heat aging resistance, and a pneumatic radial tire for an aircraft (including a linear motor car) in which the rubber composition is applied to a member.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Pneumatic radial tires used in aircraft, linear motor cars, etc., take off and land when compared to normal truck and bus tires, and they break down at a higher speed and with higher loads (burst etc. ) Is not required. For this purpose, the rubber composition around the case part (base tire) and the belt part, which may lead to a serious accident, especially when it breaks down, generates little heat even when subjected to high-speed and large deformation strains, and High strength is strictly required.
[0003]
In conventional aircraft tires, as a means to satisfy these requirements, the amount of carbon black was reduced and a carbon dispersion aid was used together. However, reducing the amount of carbon black reduces low heat buildup. However, mechanical properties such as fracture strength are reduced accordingly. In addition, although the use of the carbon dispersion aid can maintain both low heat buildup and high strength at the initial stage, the case portion (for aircraft tires that are used by renewing the worn tread portion many times) The base tire) is re-vulcanized each time, causing heat aging which is a side effect of the above-mentioned dispersion aid, and the fracture strength of the base tire is greatly reduced.
[0004]
Reduction of heat generation and improvement of heat aging resistance are not limited to aircraft tires, and many patent documents and the like have already been disclosed for passenger cars and truck / bus tires. For example, application of a bismaleimide compound as a heat aging crosslinker to a tread rubber (for example, see Patent Documents 1 and 2), a hydrazide compound for the purpose of improving reversion properties (for example, see Patent Document 3) ), And prior arts such as hydrazide compounds (for example, see Patent Document 4) for the purpose of improving the crack growth property of the case member.
[0005]
However, there is a trade-off between suppression of heat generation and improvement of mechanical strength, and it is very difficult to improve both at the same time, especially in aircraft tires, and even for several retreads. Since heat aging resistance that can withstand is strictly required, rubber compositions that satisfy all these requirements and pneumatic radial tires for aircraft and linear motor cars using the rubber compositions are still provided. The current situation is not.
