Description

本発明は、高破壊強力及び高耐摩耗性を維持するゴム組成物を得るための微生物処理したゴム粉末とそれを配合したゴム組成物及び該ゴム組成物を用いたタイヤに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a microorganism-treated rubber powder for obtaining a rubber composition that maintains high fracture strength and high wear resistance, a rubber composition containing the rubber powder, and a tire using the rubber composition.

廃タイヤは、一般のプラスチック製品と比較して回収率は高く、特にセメント工場を中心に燃料として再利用されている。しかしながら、近年、タイヤゴム片あるいはゴム粉末末をそのまま使用する、いわゆるマテリアルリサイクル率の向上が求められている。廃タイヤの粉砕粉砕方法としては、ロール粉砕法などの常温で機械的に粉砕する方法以外に、液体窒素などにより冷凍してから粉砕する冷凍粉砕や、超高圧水を用いる水撃粉砕法があり、細かい粒子を低コストで作る試みがなされている。
一方、ゴム粉末を未加硫ゴムに混練し、加硫ゴム製品として使用するためには、ゴム粉末と新しい未加硫ゴムとの加硫接着が重要であり、ゴム粉末に再生剤とオイルを配合、過熱脱硫し、ロールでシート状にした再生ゴムも古くから使用されている。
また、ゴム粉末表面の各種の脱硫方法が提案されており、例えばゴム粉末に二軸押出機などで大きな剪断力を加えて粉砕脱硫する方法などがある。しかし、これらの方法は、処理温度が高温であることや高いせん断力処理することから、エネルギーコストが高いことが欠点である。
Waste tires have a higher recovery rate than ordinary plastic products, and are reused as fuel, especially in cement factories. However, in recent years, there has been a demand for an improvement in so-called material recycling rate that uses tire rubber pieces or rubber powder powder as they are. In addition to mechanical pulverization methods such as roll pulverization methods, waste tire pulverization methods include freeze pulverization after pulverization after freezing with liquid nitrogen, etc., and water hammer pulverization method using ultra-high pressure water. Attempts have been made to produce fine particles at low cost.
On the other hand, in order to knead rubber powder with unvulcanized rubber and use it as a vulcanized rubber product, vulcanization adhesion between rubber powder and new unvulcanized rubber is important. Recycled rubber that has been compounded, overheated, desulfurized, and rolled into a sheet has been used for a long time.
Various desulfurization methods for the surface of the rubber powder have been proposed. For example, there is a method of pulverizing and desulfurizing the rubber powder by applying a large shearing force with a twin screw extruder or the like. However, these methods are disadvantageous in that the energy cost is high because the processing temperature is high and the shearing process is high.

そこで、省エネルギー的な方法として、微生物による処理が検討されている。微生物処理は、低温での処理なので、エネルギー消費は最が少ない処理法といえる。微生物処理については、硬質ゴムを効率よく分解処理する方法が提案されているが(例えば、特許文献1又は2参照)、いずれもゴム片を完全に分解することを念頭にした処理方法が示されているだけで、どのようにすればマテリアルリサイクルに有効な粉ゴムを得ることができるかについては何も述べられていない。   Therefore, treatment with microorganisms has been studied as an energy-saving method. Microbial treatment is a treatment at a low temperature, so it can be said that the treatment method has the least energy consumption. As for microbial treatment, methods for efficiently decomposing hard rubber have been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1 or 2), but all of them show treatment methods with the goal of completely decomposing rubber pieces. However, nothing is said about how to obtain powdered rubber that is effective for material recycling.

However, there are very few examples of bacteria that degrade polyisoprene rubber. Furthermore, there are very few examples of actinomycetes that decompose hard rubber compounded with carbon black and the like, and few examples of bacteria are known.
As a result of intensive screening for natural rubber-degrading bacteria from many soils, the present inventors have found bacteria of the WU-YS09 strain, which is a bacterium belonging to the genus Ocrobactrum that can degrade carbon black compound rubber used in rubber products such as tires.
