Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、センタベアリングサポートに関する。更に詳しくは、低動倍率性、耐久性、耐オゾン性、低温特性などにすぐれたセンターベアリングサポートに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年、自動車の高出力化や高性能化に伴ない、プロペラシャフト(エンジンから後輪デファレンシャルへ駆動力を伝達するシャフト)を防振支持するセンターベアリングサポート近傍の環境が高温化傾向にあり、これに用いられる材料の耐熱性向上要求が高まりつつある。また、信頼性向上のための耐久性や自動車の靜粛性のための防振性などの向上も、必要課題となっている。
【0003】
従来、センターベアリングサポート用成形材料としては、天然ゴム、天然ゴム/SBRブレンドゴム、クロロプレンゴム等が用いられてきたが、最近のセンターベアリングサポートの性能向上要求に対して、天然ゴムでは耐熱性が、また天然ゴム/SBRブレンドゴムやクロロプレンゴムでは耐久性や耐オゾン性などの面で、機能を満足させることが困難な状況となりつつある。更に、動倍率の更なる低減も、要求されている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の目的は、低動倍率性(ゴムの変形速度上昇に伴う弾性率の増大が小さいこと)、耐久性(ゴムのくり返し変形による破壊に対する耐力)、耐オゾン性(ゴムのオゾンによる劣化や物性変化に対する耐性)などにすぐれたセンターベアリングサポートを提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
かかる本発明の目的は、ムーニー粘度MS1+4(100℃)が55ポイント以上でかつ塩素含有量が25〜35重量%の塩素化ポリエチレンの加硫物よりなるセンターベアリングサポートによって達成される。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
塩素化ポリエチレンとしては、そのムーニー粘度MS1+4(100℃)[JIS K-6300準拠]が55ポイント以上、好ましくは約60〜100ポイントでかつ塩素含有量が25〜35重量%、好ましくは30〜33重量%のものが用いられる。ムーニー粘度がこれ以下のものを用いると、引張強さが十分ではなく、一方これ以上のものを用いると、ゴム材料としての成形加工が困難となる。また、これ以下の塩素含有量のものでも、ゴム材料としての成形加工が困難となり、一方これ以上の塩素含有量のものを用いると、低温特性が低下し、センターベアリングサポートとしての機能が満足されなくなる。
【0007】
塩素化ポリエチレンの加硫剤としては、有機過酸化物、トリチオシアヌル酸(メルカプトトリアジン)系、チオウレア系、第4級ホスホニウム系等の少くとも一種が用いられ、6-炭化水素置換アミノ-1,3,5-トリアジン-2,4-ジチオールの場合には有機過酸化物との併用もあり得る(特開昭62-79247号公報)。更に、有機過酸化物は一般にトリアリルイソシアヌレート、トリアリルシアヌレート等の多官能性不飽和化合物と架橋助剤と併用され、またチオウレア系加硫剤はチウラム類と併用されることもある(特開平2-34644号公報)。
【0008】
加硫剤以外にも、2価金属の酸化物または水酸化物、ハイドロタルサイト類等からなる受酸剤、カーボンブラック、シリカ等の補強剤または充填剤が塩素化ポリエチレンに添加され、更に必要に応じて可塑剤、老化防止剤、軟化剤、粘着防止剤等が材料物性の改善や生地加工、成形加工用加工助剤として添加されて用いられる。
【0009】
以上の各成分は、オープンロール、バンバリーミキサ、ニーダ等を用いて混練され、混練物は加熱圧縮成形機、注入成形機、射出成形機を用い、温度約140〜250℃、圧力約2〜50MPa、時間約1〜30分間の条件下で、センターベアリングサポートに加硫成形される。
【0010】
【発明の効果】
本発明に係るセンターベアリングサポートは、低温特性などを実質的に損うことなく、引張強さ、デマッチャ屈曲試験による亀裂発生回数からみた耐久性、動倍率によって示される防振性、耐オゾン性などの点において、特にすぐれた改善を達成させている。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a center bearing support. More specifically, the present invention relates to a center bearing support having excellent low dynamic magnification, durability, ozone resistance, low temperature characteristics, and the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, with higher output and higher performance of automobiles, the environment near the center bearing support that supports the vibration isolation of the propeller shaft (shaft that transmits the driving force from the engine to the rear wheel differential) has been on the rise. There is an increasing demand for improving the heat resistance of materials used in the manufacturing process. In addition, improvements in durability for improving reliability and vibration-proofing properties for automobile inertia have become necessary issues.
[0003]
Conventionally, natural rubber, natural rubber / SBR blend rubber, chloroprene rubber, etc. have been used as molding materials for center bearing support, but natural rubber has heat resistance in response to the recent demand for improved performance of center bearing support. In addition, natural rubber / SBR blend rubber and chloroprene rubber are becoming difficult to satisfy their functions in terms of durability and ozone resistance. Furthermore, further reduction in dynamic magnification is also required.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The objectives of the present invention are low dynamic magnification (small increase in elastic modulus accompanying an increase in the deformation rate of rubber), durability (resistance to breakage due to repeated deformation of rubber), ozone resistance (deterioration of rubber due to ozone and It is to provide a center bearing support with excellent resistance to changes in physical properties.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The object of the present invention is achieved by a center bearing support made of a vulcanized product of chlorinated polyethylene having a Mooney viscosity MS 1 + 4 (100 ° C.) of 55 points or more and a chlorine content of 25 to 35% by weight.
[0006]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
As chlorinated polyethylene, its Mooney viscosity MS 1 + 4 (100 ° C.) [JIS K-6300 compliant] is 55 points or more, preferably about 60 to 100 points, and chlorine content is 25 to 35% by weight, preferably 30 to 33% by weight is used. If one having a Mooney viscosity or less is used, the tensile strength is not sufficient. On the other hand, if one having a Mooney viscosity or more is used, molding as a rubber material becomes difficult. Also, even those with a chlorine content below this are difficult to mold as a rubber material. On the other hand, use of materials with a chlorine content above this will lower the low-temperature characteristics and satisfy the function as a center bearing support. Disappear.
[0007]
As the vulcanizing agent for chlorinated polyethylene, at least one of organic peroxides, trithiocyanuric acid (mercaptotriazine) series, thiourea series, quaternary phosphonium series, etc. is used, and 6-hydrocarbon substituted amino-1,3 In the case of 1,5-triazine-2,4-dithiol, it can be used together with an organic peroxide (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 62-79247). Further, organic peroxides are generally used in combination with polyfunctional unsaturated compounds such as triallyl isocyanurate and triallyl cyanurate and crosslinking aids, and thiourea vulcanizing agents may be used in combination with thiurams ( JP-A-2-34644).
[0008]
In addition to vulcanizing agents, divalent metal oxides or hydroxides, acid acceptors consisting of hydrotalcites, etc., reinforcing agents or fillers such as carbon black and silica are added to chlorinated polyethylene. Accordingly, plasticizers, anti-aging agents, softening agents, anti-tacking agents, and the like are added and used as processing aids for improving material properties, fabric processing, and molding.
[0009]
Each of the above components is kneaded using an open roll, a Banbury mixer, a kneader, etc., and the kneaded product is heated at a temperature of about 140 to 250 ° C. and a pressure of about 2 to 50 MPa using a heat compression molding machine, an injection molding machine and an injection molding machine. And vulcanized to the center bearing support under conditions of about 1-30 minutes.
[0010]
【The invention's effect】
The center bearing support according to the present invention does not substantially impair the low-temperature characteristics, etc., tensile strength, durability as seen from the number of cracks generated by the dematcher bending test, vibration resistance indicated by dynamic magnification, ozone resistance, etc. In particular, it has achieved a particularly good improvement.
[0011]
【Example】
Next, the present invention will be described with reference to examples.
[0012]

In Example 2, Showa Denko Eraslene 403A [MS 1 + 4 (100 ° C.) 50, chlorine content 40%] was used as the chlorinated polyethylene.
[0019]
Comparative Example 4
The same measurement as in Example 1 was performed on the vulcanized material (180 ° C., 4 minutes) of the chloroprene rubber material for the center bearing support.
[0020]
Comparative Example 5
The same measurement as in Example 1 was performed on a vulcanizate (150 ° C., 10 minutes) of natural rubber / SBR blend rubber material for center bearing support.
[0021]
The measurement results in the above examples and comparative examples are shown in the following table.
Figure 0003840841
[0022]
From the above results, the following can be said.
Example 1: The value of the number of occurrence of cracks by tensile strength and dematcher bending test is large, and the center bearing support material preferably has a small value of dynamic magnification, but this is also a small value Example 2: The vulcanization system was changed from the peroxide system to the trithiocyanuric acid system, but the physical properties of the rubber material such as tensile strength, number of cracks generated by the dematcher bending test, and dynamic magnification showed good values. Example 3: Containing chlorine Comparative Example 1 with a good balance as a center bearing support as a whole, although a slight decrease in T 100 value (low temperature characteristics) and dynamic magnification by Gehmann torsion test is observed when 35% chlorinated polyethylene is used : When a polymer having a small Mooney viscosity is used, the decrease in the number of cracks caused by tensile strength and the Dematcher bending test is remarkable. -When a polymer with high viscosity and high chlorine content is used, the tensile strength and the number of cracks generated by the Dematcher bending test show good values, but the T 100 value (low temperature characteristics) is significantly reduced by the Gehmann torsion test. 3: When a polymer having a small Mooney viscosity and a large chlorine content is used, not only the tensile strength and the number of cracks generated by the Dematcher bending test, but also the T 100 value (low temperature characteristics) is significantly reduced by the Gehmann torsion test. In the chloroprene rubber material generally used as the center bearing support material, the comparative example has lower tensile strength, larger dynamic magnification, and inferior ozone resistance compared to the examples. 5: In the case of natural rubber / SBR blend rubber material for center bearing support, compared to the examples, especially for the dematcher bending test. Crack number of times and ozone resistance is inferior that
