This is because microalgae belonging to the genus Euglena are easy to culture, and when cultured under aerobic conditions, paramylon is accumulated in the cells as carbohydrates and then accumulated under anaerobic conditions. It is known that paramylon is decomposed to produce oil (ester of (higher) fatty acid and (higher) aliphatic alcohol) (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-118090). This is because it has been found that the effects of the present invention can be obtained more effectively by blending oil into the rubber composition as a plasticizer component.
また、ユーグレナ属に属する微細藻類は、培養条件によっては、乾燥菌体質量の50質量%にも達する極めて高い生産効率でオイル((高級)脂肪酸と(高級)脂肪族アルコールとのエステル)を生産することが知られており(特開昭59−118090号公報)、生産効率の点でも、他の天然由来オイル類と比較して優れている。 In addition, microalgae belonging to the genus Euglena produce oils (esters of (higher) fatty acids and (higher) fatty alcohols) with extremely high production efficiency that reaches 50% by weight of the dry cell mass depending on the culture conditions. (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-118090) is superior to other naturally-derived oils in terms of production efficiency.
ユーグレナ属に属する微細藻類は、動物学ではミドリムシ目、植物学ではEuglenophyceae網、ミドリムシ目に属する鞭毛虫の一群であり、池や沼等の天然水系に自然に生息している採取、培養が容易なものである。代表的なものとして、ユーグレナ・グラシリス・Z株、ユーグレナ・グラシリス・バシラリス変株、ユーグレナ・ビリディス、アスタシア・ロンガ等が挙げられるが、これらに限定されるものでなく、また公知の方法で処理した各種変異株も使用することができる。 The microalgae belonging to the genus Euglena are a group of flagellates belonging to the order of Euglena in zoology, Euglenophyceae net in the botany, and Euglena, and can be easily collected and cultured in natural water systems such as ponds and swamps. It is a thing. Representative examples include Euglena Gracilis Z strain, Euglena Gracilis Basilis variant, Euglena Viridis, Astasia Longa, etc., but are not limited thereto, and were treated by a known method. Various mutant strains can also be used.
微細藻類の培養には、各種微生物を培養する公知の方法が適用できる。具体的には、炭素源、窒素源、無機塩、ビタミン類を適量加えた培地であれば良く、公知のものとしては、コーレン・ハットナー培地(Korren and Hutner,J.Protozool.14,Supple.17(1967))、ハットナー培地(Hutner,J.Protozool,6,23(1959))、クレマー・マイヤー培地(Cramer and Myers,Arch.Mikrobiol,17,384,(1952))等が挙げられるが、この限りではない。 For culturing microalgae, known methods for culturing various microorganisms can be applied. Specifically, a medium containing an appropriate amount of a carbon source, a nitrogen source, an inorganic salt, and vitamins may be used, and known media include Koren-Hutner medium (Korren and Hutner, J. Protocol. 14, Supple. 17). (1967)), Hutner medium (Hutner, J. Protocol, 6, 23 (1959)), Kramer-Myers medium, Archer Mikrobiol, 17, 384 (1952)) and the like. Not as long.
また微細藻類の培養、微細藻類からのオイルの抽出に関しては、公知の方法、例えば、北岡らの成書(「ユーグレナ」北岡正三郎編、学会出版センター(1989年))や、化学と工業(谷口道子、化学と工業、52巻、262項(1999))などに詳しくまとめられている方法に基づいて行うことができる。また、上記微細藻類のなかでも、ユーグレナ属、クロレラ属、スピルリナ属、アルスロスピラ属に属する微細藻類等は、既に工業的規模で培養されている。 Regarding the cultivation of microalgae and the extraction of oil from microalgae, known methods such as Kitaoka et al.'S book ("Euglena" edited by Shozaburo Kitaoka, Society Publishing Center (1989)), Chemistry and Industry (Taniguchi) Michiko, Chemistry and Industry, Vol. 52, Item 262 (1999)) and the like. Among the above-mentioned microalgae, microalgae belonging to the genus Euglena, Chlorella, Spirulina, and Arsulospira have already been cultured on an industrial scale.
炭素源としては、グルコース、澱粉水解物、糖蜜、グルタミン酸、酢酸、エタノールなどが好ましく、2種類以上を組み合わせて用いてもかまわない。 As the carbon source, glucose, starch hydrolyzate, molasses, glutamic acid, acetic acid, ethanol and the like are preferable, and two or more kinds may be used in combination.
窒素源としては、アンモニア、アンモニウム塩、グルタミン酸、アスバラギン酸などが好ましく、2種類以上を組み合わせて用いてもかまわない。また前記炭素源と窒素源の質量比(C/N)は4〜30が好ましい。 As the nitrogen source, ammonia, ammonium salt, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and the like are preferable, and two or more kinds may be used in combination. The mass ratio (C / N) of the carbon source and nitrogen source is preferably 4-30.
無機塩としては、カルシウム、マグネシウム、マンガン、鉄類を含む無機塩を組み合わせることが望ましい。 As the inorganic salt, it is desirable to combine inorganic salts containing calcium, magnesium, manganese, and irons.
ビタミン類としては、ビタミンB1、ビタミンB12、ビタミンB16等を組み合わせて加えることが好ましい。 As vitamins, vitamin B 1 , vitamin B 12 , vitamin B 16 and the like are preferably added in combination.
培養温度は20℃〜35℃が好ましく、27℃〜33℃がより好ましい。20℃未満でも35℃を超えても培養は可能であるが、成長が遅くなりオイルの生成効率が悪くなる傾向がある。 The culture temperature is preferably 20 ° C to 35 ° C, more preferably 27 ° C to 33 ° C. Culturing is possible at temperatures below 20 ° C. and above 35 ° C., but growth tends to be slow and oil production efficiency tends to be poor.
培養は、暗所で行っても明所で行ってもよい。すなわち、光照射を行ってもよく、暗黒下や、室内光下でもよい。 Culture may be performed in the dark or in the light. That is, light irradiation may be performed, and it may be under dark or indoor light.
液体又は懸濁液で培養する際には、適度の振盪、若しくは攪拌を行うことが望ましい。また、培養は好気性条件下で行うことが望ましく、通気は、培養液1リットル、1分間あたり0.4〜2リットルが、生育上望ましい。また、通気と炭素源供与をかねて、酸素/二酸化炭素混合溶液を通気してもかまわない。 When culturing in a liquid or suspension, it is desirable to perform appropriate shaking or stirring. In addition, the culture is preferably performed under aerobic conditions, and aeration is desirably 1 to 2 liters of culture solution per minute and 0.4 to 2 liters per minute. Further, the oxygen / carbon dioxide mixed solution may be ventilated for both aeration and carbon source donation.
また、特開昭59−118090号公報に記載のように、パラミロンのオイルへの変換を促進するため、ユーグレナ属に属する微細藻類を好気性条件下で一定期間培養してパラミロンを細胞内に蓄積した後、嫌気性条件下に移行させて培養し、オイル((高級)脂肪酸と(高級)脂肪族アルコールとのエステル)を生成させることが望ましい。この場合、4日〜7日間好気性条件下で培養し、成長の定常期に達したところで、嫌気性条件下に変換して1〜3日間培養することが望ましい。これにより、多量のオイルを効率良く生成できる。 Further, as described in JP-A-59-118090, in order to promote the conversion of paramylon into oil, microalgae belonging to the genus Euglena are cultured for a certain period under aerobic conditions to accumulate paramylon in the cells. Then, it is desirable to transfer to anaerobic conditions and culture to produce oil (ester of (higher) fatty acid and (higher) fatty alcohol). In this case, it is desirable to culture under aerobic conditions for 4 days to 7 days, and after reaching the stationary phase of growth, convert to anaerobic conditions and culture for 1 to 3 days. Thereby, a lot of oil can be generated efficiently.
嫌気性条件下に変換する方法としては、例えば、好気性条件下で培養した細胞を遠心分離等で集めた後、リン酸緩衝液等の溶液に懸濁し、窒素ガスを通気する方法等が挙げられる。 Examples of the method for conversion to anaerobic conditions include a method in which cells cultured under an aerobic condition are collected by centrifugation and then suspended in a solution such as a phosphate buffer and aerated with nitrogen gas. It is done.
また、オイル((高級)脂肪酸と(高級)脂肪族アルコールとのエステル)は、構成する脂肪酸、脂肪族アルコールの炭素数が小さいほど、また不飽和度が大きいほど低い融点を示す傾向がある。そのため、特開昭61−254193号公報に記載のように、微細藻類の培養の際に、脂肪酸を添加することによって、生成するオイルの融点を目的に応じて制御することができる。 Oils (esters of (higher) fatty acids and (higher) aliphatic alcohols) tend to exhibit a lower melting point as the number of carbon atoms of the fatty acids and aliphatic alcohols formed is smaller and as the degree of unsaturation is larger. Therefore, as described in JP-A-61-254193, the melting point of the oil to be produced can be controlled according to the purpose by adding a fatty acid during the cultivation of microalgae.
本発明のように、得られたオイル(脂肪酸エステル)を加工性の向上、氷上性能、耐摩耗性の改善等を目的として可塑剤としてタイヤ用ゴム組成物に配合する場合、ユーグレナ属に属する微細藻類を通常の培地(脂肪酸が添加されていない培地)で培養することにより得られる不飽和結合が少ない脂肪酸エステルは、25℃で固形状であるため、可塑剤として充分な効果(特に、加工性及び氷上性能の向上効果)が得られないおそれがある。そのため、脂肪酸エステルの融点を低下させるために脂肪酸を添加することが好ましい。これにより、加工性及び氷上性能の向上効果が向上し、得られたオイルをより好適に可塑剤として使用することができる。 When the obtained oil (fatty acid ester) is blended in a tire rubber composition as a plasticizer for the purpose of improving processability, performance on ice, improving wear resistance, etc., as in the present invention, Fatty acid esters with low unsaturated bonds obtained by culturing algae in a normal medium (medium without added fatty acid) are solid at 25 ° C., and are therefore sufficiently effective as plasticizers (especially processability). In addition, there is a risk that the on-ice performance improvement effect) cannot be obtained. Therefore, it is preferable to add a fatty acid in order to lower the melting point of the fatty acid ester. Thereby, the improvement effect of workability and on-ice performance improves, and the obtained oil can be used more suitably as a plasticizer.
従って、上記添加物とは別に、特定の組成のオイル(例えば、特定の炭素数を有するオイルや特定数の不飽和結合を有するオイル)を生成させる目的で、脂肪酸を添加することが好ましい。脂肪酸を添加するタイミングとしては、特に限定されず、培養の初期段階から添加しておいてもよいが、上述のように、ユーグレナ属に属する微細藻類を好気性条件下で一定期間培養してパラミロンを細胞内に蓄積させた後、嫌気性条件下に移行する際、又は嫌気性条件下への移行の前後24時間以内に行うことが好ましい。これにより、添加した脂肪酸を構成成分とする脂肪酸エステルを効率的に生成できる。 Therefore, apart from the above additives, it is preferable to add a fatty acid for the purpose of producing an oil having a specific composition (for example, an oil having a specific carbon number or an oil having a specific number of unsaturated bonds). The timing of adding the fatty acid is not particularly limited, and may be added from the initial stage of the culture. However, as described above, the microalga belonging to the genus Euglena is cultured under aerobic conditions for a certain period of time. Is preferably carried out within 24 hours before or after the transition to anaerobic conditions. Thereby, the fatty acid ester which makes the added fatty acid a structural component can be produced | generated efficiently.
脂肪酸の炭素数としては、生成するオイル(例えば、脂肪酸エステル)の望ましい融点を考慮すると、8〜40が好ましく、10〜30がより好ましく、15〜30がさらに好ましい。 The carbon number of the fatty acid is preferably 8 to 40, more preferably 10 to 30 and even more preferably 15 to 30 in consideration of a desirable melting point of the oil (for example, fatty acid ester) to be generated.
上記脂肪酸としては、ミリストレイン酸、パルミトレインン酸、オレイン酸、ネルボン酸、エライジン酸、リノール酸、リノレン酸、ガドレイン酸、ゴンドイン酸、セトレイン酸、エルカ酸等の不飽和脂肪酸;ラウリン酸、ミリスチン酸、パルミチン酸、ステアリン酸、ツベルコロステアリン酸、アラキジン酸、ベヘン酸、リグノセリン酸、セロチン酸、モンタン酸等の飽和脂肪酸等が挙げられる。これらは単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を組み合わせて使用してもよい。なかでも、不飽和脂肪酸が好ましく、ミリストレイン酸、パルミトレイン酸、オレイン酸、ネルボン酸、エライジン酸、ガドレイン酸、セトレイン酸、エルカ酸のような不飽和結合(二重結合)を分子内に1つ有する不飽和脂肪酸がより好ましい。これにより、得られる脂肪酸エステルが不飽和結合を有することとなり、脂肪酸エステルの融点を低下させることができ、可塑剤としてより好適に使用できる脂肪酸エステルが得られる。 Examples of the fatty acids include unsaturated fatty acids such as myristoleic acid, palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, nervonic acid, elaidic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, gadoleic acid, gondoic acid, cetreic acid, erucic acid; lauric acid, myristic acid And saturated fatty acids such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, tubercolostearic acid, arachidic acid, behenic acid, lignoceric acid, serotic acid, and montanic acid. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Of these, unsaturated fatty acids are preferred, and one unsaturated bond (double bond) such as myristoleic acid, palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, nervonic acid, elaidic acid, gadoleic acid, cetreic acid, and erucic acid is present in the molecule. An unsaturated fatty acid is more preferable. Thereby, the obtained fatty acid ester has an unsaturated bond, the melting point of the fatty acid ester can be lowered, and a fatty acid ester that can be more suitably used as a plasticizer is obtained.
脂肪酸の添加量としては、培地に対して0.1〜5質量%程度が好ましい。 The amount of fatty acid added is preferably about 0.1 to 5% by mass relative to the medium.
培養した微細藻類(細胞)からオイル成分を精製する方法としては、公知のいずれの方法を用いても構わない。例えば、培養液よりろ過、及び/又は遠心分離により細胞を集め、有機溶媒により抽出する方法、細胞を超音波等で破砕し、遠心分離することによりオイル成分を分離する方法、細胞を超音波等で破砕し、有機溶媒により抽出する方法等が挙げられる。また、カラムクロマトグラフィー等で、さらに精製しても構わない。 Any known method may be used as a method of purifying the oil component from the cultured microalgae (cells).

表2の配合に従い、135℃に加熟した250ccインターナルミキサーを用いて、88rpmの条件で加硫促進剤及び硫黄以外の薬品と各種マスターバッチとを3分間混練りした。混練りしたゴムを排出して、60℃、24rpmの条件で6インチオープンロールにより加硫促進剤と硫黄を添加、5分間混練し、未加硫ゴム組成物を得た。得られた未加硫ゴム組成物を150℃でプレス加熱することで、加硫ゴム組成物を得た。作製した加硫ゴム組成物を用い、以下に示す評価を行った。結果を表2に示す。 In accordance with the formulation shown in Table 2, a vulcanization accelerator and chemicals other than sulfur and various master batches were kneaded for 3 minutes under the condition of 88 rpm using a 250 cc internal mixer ripened to 135 ° C. The kneaded rubber was discharged, and a vulcanization accelerator and sulfur were added with a 6-inch open roll at 60 ° C. and 24 rpm, and kneaded for 5 minutes to obtain an unvulcanized rubber composition. The obtained unvulcanized rubber composition was press-heated at 150 ° C. to obtain a vulcanized rubber composition. The following evaluations were performed using the prepared vulcanized rubber composition. The results are shown in Table 2.
(氷上性能)
−5℃に温度制御された恒温室内に設置された−2℃の氷面上に、前記加硫ゴム組成物を2kg/cm2で押し付け、20km/hで滑らせるときの摩擦係数(氷上摩擦係数)を測定し、比較例1の氷上摩擦性能指数を100とし、下記計算式により、各配合の氷上摩擦係数を指数表示した。氷上摩擦性能指数が大きいほど、空気入りタイヤとして用いた場合に、氷上摩擦性能が高く、氷上性能に優れることを示す。
(氷上摩擦性能指数)=(各配合の氷上摩擦係数)/(比較例1の氷上摩擦係数)×100
(Performance on ice)
Friction coefficient (friction on ice) when the vulcanized rubber composition is pressed at 2 kg / cm 2 and slid at 20 km / h on an ice surface of −2 ° C. installed in a temperature-controlled room controlled at −5 ° C. The coefficient of friction on ice of Comparative Example 1 was set to 100, and the coefficient of friction on ice of each formulation was expressed as an index according to the following formula. The larger the on-ice friction performance index, the higher the on-ice friction performance and the better on-ice performance when used as a pneumatic tire.
(Friction performance index on ice) = (Friction coefficient on ice for each formulation) / (Friction coefficient on ice in Comparative Example 1) × 100
