Description

本発明は、タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に関し、更に詳細には、耐摩耗性、転がり抵抗性及びウェットスキッド性能を同時に満足するだけでなく、環境・安全性においても優れたシリカ配合系タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に関する。   The present invention relates to a rubber composition for a tire tread, and more specifically, for a silica-compounded tire tread that not only satisfies wear resistance, rolling resistance and wet skid performance at the same time, but also has excellent environmental and safety characteristics. The present invention relates to a rubber composition.

従来、ゴムに対する相溶性が高く、可塑化効果が優れていることから、ゴム用可塑剤として石油系のエキストラクトが使用されてきたが、現今、環境安全性の観点から石油系代替油として芳香族成分の比率を減らして安全性を高めたオイルが検討されている。しかしながら、その芳香族成分の比率が下がることで、特に、シリカ配合系のタイヤトレッド用ゴムの場合には、ウェットスキッド性能が低下したり、耐摩耗性が悪化するだけでなく、ムーニー粘度が十分に下がらず、加工性も悪化するという問題点があった。   Conventionally, petroleum-based extracts have been used as rubber plasticizers because of their high compatibility with rubber and excellent plasticizing effect. Oils with increased safety by reducing the proportion of tribe components are being investigated. However, the ratio of the aromatic component decreases, especially in the case of silica compounded tire tread rubber, not only the wet skid performance deteriorates but the wear resistance deteriorates, and the Mooney viscosity is sufficient. However, there was a problem that the workability deteriorated.

前記したシリカ配合系ゴム組成物に対して、側鎖の不飽和結合をエポキシ化したエポキシ化変性スチレン−ブタジエンゴムを所定量ゴム成分中に配合することにより、弾性率の実質的低下を招くことなく耐熱老化性を改善する技術が、以下の特許文献1により提案されている。また、熱安定性、着色性に優れた安定性を有する塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物を得る目的で、当該塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物中にヨウ素価60以上のパーム油をエポキシ化して得られるエポキシ化パーム油を所定量配合する技術が、以下の特許文献2により提案されている。しかしながら、特定のエポキシ化合物をゴム用の可塑剤として、タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物、特にシリカ配合系のタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に配合する技術は、未だ提案されていない。   By blending a predetermined amount of epoxidized modified styrene-butadiene rubber with epoxidized unsaturated bonds in the side chain into the above-described silica compounded rubber composition, the elastic modulus is substantially lowered. The following patent document 1 proposes a technique for improving heat aging resistance. In addition, for the purpose of obtaining a vinyl chloride resin composition having excellent thermal stability and colorability, epoxidation obtained by epoxidizing palm oil having an iodine value of 60 or more in the vinyl chloride resin composition A technique for blending a predetermined amount of palm oil is proposed in Patent Document 2 below. However, a technique for blending a specific epoxy compound into a rubber composition for tire treads, in particular, a rubber composition for tire treads based on silica has not been proposed as a plasticizer for rubber.

特開平10−1564号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-1564 特開平11−49909号公報JP 11-49909 A

よって、本発明では、所定のSBRを含むジエン系ゴム/シリカ配合系タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に対して、不飽和脂肪酸又はその誘導体をエポキシ化した特定のエポキシ化合物を可塑剤として添加することにより、環境上安全で、耐摩耗性、転がり抵抗性及びウェットスキッド性能の三特性を改良するだけでなく、ムーニー粘度の低下も大きく加工性が大幅に改善されたタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, in the present invention, a specific epoxy compound obtained by epoxidizing an unsaturated fatty acid or a derivative thereof is added as a plasticizer to a diene rubber / silica blended tire tread rubber composition containing a predetermined SBR. Provided is a rubber composition for a tire tread that is environmentally safe, not only improves three properties of wear resistance, rolling resistance, and wet skid performance, but also greatly reduces Mooney viscosity and greatly improves processability. For the purpose.

本発明によれば、ブタジエン部分のビニル含量が20〜65重量%でスチレン含量が20〜50重量%のスチレン−ブタジエン共重合体ゴム40重量部以上を含むゴム成分100重量部とシリカ5〜70重量部を含む配合系に対して、下記一般式(1)で表される不飽和脂肪酸又はその誘導体をエポキシ化したエポキシ化合物0.1〜50重量部を配合してなるタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物が提供される。
1−(CH=CH−CH2)m−(CH2)n−COOR2 (1)
(式中、R1は、炭素数1〜10個のアルキル基を示し、R2は、水素又は炭素数1〜10個のアルキル基、アリール基、アルケニル基、(メタ)アクリル基もしくはアルコキシシリル基を示し、m及びnは、1〜20の整数である。)
According to the present invention, 100 parts by weight of a rubber component containing 40 parts by weight or more of a styrene-butadiene copolymer rubber having a vinyl content of the butadiene portion of 20 to 65% by weight and a styrene content of 20 to 50% by weight and 5 to 70 parts of silica. The rubber composition for tire treads which mix | blends 0.1-50 weight part of epoxy compounds which epoxidized unsaturated fatty acid represented by the following general formula (1) or its derivative (s) with respect to the compounding system containing a weight part. Is provided.
R 1 — (CH═CH—CH 2 ) m — (CH 2 ) n —COOR 2 (1)
(In the formula, R 1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and R 2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an aryl group, an alkenyl group, a (meth) acryl group or an alkoxysilyl group. And m and n are integers of 1 to 20.)

また、本発明によれば、前記タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に配合される前記エポキシ化合物のヨウ素価が60以上であることを特徴とする、タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物が提供される。   Moreover, according to this invention, the iodine value of the said epoxy compound mix | blended with the said rubber composition for tire treads is 60 or more, The rubber composition for tire treads characterized by the above-mentioned is provided.

本発明では、前記した所定のSBRを含むジエン系ゴム/シリカ配合系タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に対して、不飽和脂肪酸又はその誘導体をエポキシ化した特定のエポキシ化合物を可塑剤として所定量添加することにより、耐摩耗性、転がり抵抗性及びウェットスキッド性能の三特性を改良するだけでなく、ムーニー粘度の低下も大きく加工性が大幅に改善されることを見出したものである。   In the present invention, a predetermined amount of a specific epoxy compound obtained by epoxidizing an unsaturated fatty acid or a derivative thereof is added as a plasticizer to a diene rubber / silica blended tire tread rubber composition containing the predetermined SBR. As a result, it has been found that not only the three properties of wear resistance, rolling resistance and wet skid performance are improved, but also the Mooney viscosity is greatly reduced and the workability is greatly improved.

本発明のタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に用いられるゴム成分のSBRとしては、そのブタジエン部分のビニル含量が20〜65重量%でスチレン含量が20〜50重量%であるSBRが使用される。当該SBRにおけるスチレン含量が20重量%未満では、耐ウェットスキッド性能の低下を招くので好ましくなく、逆に50重量%を超えると、転がり抵抗が悪化するので好ましくない。また、当該SBRにおけるビニル含量が20重量部未満では、耐ウェットスキッド性能の低下を招くので好ましくなく、逆に65重量%を超えると、転がり抵抗及び耐摩耗性が悪化するので好ましくない。   As the SBR of the rubber component used in the rubber composition for a tire tread of the present invention, SBR having a vinyl content of 20 to 65% by weight and a styrene content of 20 to 50% by weight is used. When the styrene content in the SBR is less than 20% by weight, the wet skid resistance performance is deteriorated, which is not preferable. On the other hand, when it exceeds 50% by weight, the rolling resistance is deteriorated, which is not preferable. Further, if the vinyl content in the SBR is less than 20 parts by weight, it is not preferable because the wet skid resistance performance is lowered. Conversely, if it exceeds 65% by weight, the rolling resistance and wear resistance are deteriorated.

本発明のタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物におけるゴム成分として配合される前記SBRは、全体のゴム成分100重量部に対して40重量部以上の量とすることが必要である。このSBRの配合量が40重量部未満であると、耐ウェットスキッド性能の低下を招くので好ましくない。当該タイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物における他のゴム成分としては、ジエン系ゴム、例えば、天然ゴム(NR)、各種ブタジエンゴム(BR)、ポリイソプレンゴム(IR)、アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン共重合体ゴム(NBR)、クロロプレンゴム、エチレン−プロピレン−ジエン共重合体ゴム、スチレン−イソプレン−ブタジエン共重合体ゴム、イソプレン−ブタジエン共重合体ゴムなどが挙げられ、これらのジエン系ゴムは、所定の範囲で単独又は二種以上のブレンドゴムとして使用されてよい。   The SBR blended as a rubber component in the rubber composition for a tire tread of the present invention needs to be 40 parts by weight or more with respect to 100 parts by weight of the entire rubber component. If the amount of SBR is less than 40 parts by weight, the wet skid resistance performance is lowered, which is not preferable. Other rubber components in the rubber composition for tire treads include diene rubbers such as natural rubber (NR), various butadiene rubbers (BR), polyisoprene rubber (IR), acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer rubber (NBR). ), Chloroprene rubber, ethylene-propylene-diene copolymer rubber, styrene-isoprene-butadiene copolymer rubber, isoprene-butadiene copolymer rubber and the like, and these diene rubbers are used alone or in a predetermined range. It may be used as two or more blend rubbers.

また、本発明のタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物には、前記ゴム成分100重量部に対して5〜70重量部のシリカが配合される。当該シリカの配合量がゴム成分に対して5重量部未満では、シリカの充填剤効果が小さく、転がり抵抗が悪化するので好ましくなく、逆に70重量部を超えると、tanδ(0℃)の低下によるウェットスキッド抵抗の悪化及び耐摩耗性が著しく悪化するので好ましくない。   Moreover, the rubber composition for tire treads of the present invention contains 5 to 70 parts by weight of silica with respect to 100 parts by weight of the rubber component. If the amount of silica is less than 5 parts by weight relative to the rubber component, the silica filler effect is small and rolling resistance deteriorates, which is not preferable. Conversely, if the amount exceeds 70 parts by weight, tan δ (0 ° C.) decreases. This is not preferable because the wet skid resistance and wear resistance are significantly deteriorated due to the above.

本発明のタイヤトレッド用ゴム組成物に配合、使用される可塑剤としての特定のエポキシ化合物としては、下記の一般式(1):
1−(CH=CH−CH2)m−(CH2)n−COOR2 (1)
