Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a high shielding tire composition having excellent air permeation performance made by mixing plastic and rubber.
Recently, due to the light weight of automobiles, low specific gravity and high performance characteristics of rubber materials used in tire manufacturing are required, and the development of materials with low specific gravity or excellent physical properties compared to existing materials while maintaining the mechanical properties of rubber materials for existing tires Research is ongoing.
In particular, research is being actively conducted on the polymer composite composition having improved air permeability applied to the inner liner part that maintains the function of maintaining the tire pressure inside.
Until now, the material used for tire inner liner is butyl rubber, which is known to have excellent air permeability. Among these, halogenated butyl rubber is used, which has better air permeability, and is easily bonded with other rubbers. Commonly used halogenated rubbers include chlorobutyl and bromobutyl. The halogenated butyl rubber is applied in blend with natural rubber, and a specific tire manufacturer sometimes applies butyl rubber to the inner liner. However, conventional halogenated butyl rubber has a problem in that air permeability is not excellent. In addition, when a tire finished product is made of conventional halogenated butyl rubber, there is a problem in that the thickness of the inner liner becomes thick, making it difficult to reduce the weight of the entire weight.
The present invention provides a high shielding resin composition for a tire kneaded by mixing 5 to 60% by weight of a plastic resin, 30 to 90% by weight of a rubber resin and 3-60% of an additive.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, claims and drawings.
According to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a high shielding resin composition for a tire kneaded by mixing 5 to 60% by weight of a plastic resin, 30 to 90% by weight of a rubber resin and 3-60% of an additive.

(i) A tire inner liner having excellent shielding property can be manufactured by mixing rubber and plastic.

1 is a schematic diagram showing an approximate procedure for preparing a composition of the present invention.
According to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a high shielding resin composition for a tire kneaded by mixing 5 to 60% by weight of a plastic resin, 30 to 90% by weight of a rubber resin and 3-60% of an additive.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a tire innerliner comprising the composition prepared by the above method.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
The present invention is a technology for blending plastic resin and rubber to blend a material with excellent shielding performance. The plastic material used in the blending is PE (Polyethylene), PP (Polypropylene), PS (Poly Styrene), PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (Polyethylene naphthalate), PC (Poly Carbonate), PVC (Poly Vinylchloride), PA (Polyamide), PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide), PK (Polyketone), EVOH (Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol), PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), etc. The material is butyl rubber (normal butyl, chlorobutyl, bromo butyl), NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber), EPDM (ethylene propylene diene rubber), ACM (acrylic rubber), AEM (ethylene-acrylic rubber), SBR ( Styrene-butadiene rubber), BR (butadiene rubber), CR (chloroprene rubber), CSM (chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber), ECO (epichlorohydrin rubber), natural rubber, fluorine rubber, silicone rubber and the like.
The above materials are not limited to only introduction to the main materials used in the polymer composite composition used in the present invention. Plastics and rubber used in the present invention include all materials of various materials corresponding to the category of plastics and rubber. The tire production process consists of a refining process that mixes chemicals with rubber as a raw material, a rolling / extrusion process that manufactures the compounded rubber into semi-finished products, and a molding that assembles the semi-finished products manufactured by a cutting process that cuts semi-finished products to a certain size. It can be divided into a vulcanization process that gives elasticity by applying heat and pressure to the green case made by the process and molding process.
In the first tire forming process, the tires, such as body plies, beads, and treads, which are completed through semi-finished processes, are sequentially attached to the molding machine drum to form a cylindrical rubber composite. The cylindrical object made at this time is called a green case. In the forming process, the green case is made by assembling the inner liner and body ply on the drum band, attaching beads, and inflating a rubber balloon called 'Bladder' to turn up both ends of the semi-finished product. . After that, they attach sidewalls, assemble belts, cap plies, and treads to take out the green case shaped like a tire.
The tire is vulcanized by the secondary process. The vulcanization process, the final process of the manufacturing process, is the process of making a complete tire from a green case made of semi-finished products. Insert the green tire into the mold and apply constant pressure and heat to complete the tread pattern according to the type of tire. At this time, the subdivided pressure, time, and temperature should be adjusted according to the type of tire. During vulcanization in the mold, not only the pressure is very high but also the temperature of the parts can be different, which can cause the rubber to pull out. In order to prevent this, a hole is drilled in the mold. As a result, a tire having a vulcanized process has a rubber protrusion called a vent. These rubber bumps are cleaned and trimmed. Among them, the inner liner of the tire is wound on the innermost side of the tire, and the inner liner of the tire is pressed into the bladder in the forming process to have the shape and thickness of the inner liner. Halogenated butyl rubber, the most widely used inner liner material to date, is cut and processed to a thickness of about 1 to 2 mm.
The high shielding formulation developed by the present invention has an excellent air permeability of about 3 to 7 times compared to the conventional halogenated butyl rubber, and can reduce the thickness of the existing inner liner.
That is, the tire can be thinned up to about 0.1 to 0.3 mm on the basis of the finished tire, thereby reducing the weight of the tire as a whole. Since the specific gravity is also smaller than that of the existing inner liner, the weight reduction effect is maximized. Generally, 500g ~ 800g weight can be reduced per tire.
Another advantage of the present invention is a high shielding material using a conventional plastic resin, but a separate additional process is required to form a tire, the material developed by the present invention can be applied without changing the existing tire process.
In order to apply the above-mentioned high shielding resin, a special molding process is required unlike the general tire process. Before assembling the inner liner and body ply on the drum band, a dedicated extruder for each tire size is prepared, and a semi-finished donut type inner liner is used.
This method could overcome the weakness of moldability due to its thin thickness and plastic characteristics, but it needed to invest in exclusive extrusion equipment, and it was not suitable for mass production method using existing cutting process. There is this. In addition, since the plastic resin is not smoothly bonded to other rubbers, a separate adhesive material is required.
However, the material of the present invention can be applied without any special changes in the existing process, it is also good adhesion with other rubber. Therefore, the product can be produced while maintaining the production efficiency of the existing tire.
The blending process of the present invention is as follows.
At a temperature above the melting point of the plastic resin, the rubber and plastic resin are mixed in a specific ratio. Carbon Black, Stearic Acid, Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Process Oil are added to make Carbon Master Batch. The important point here is that they must be kneaded at temperatures above the melting point of the plastic resin. Otherwise, the plastic resin will not melt, resulting in poor dispersibility with the rubber. If the dispersion is not perfect, not only the mechanical properties of the formulation are lowered, but also the shielding performance is deteriorated.
In addition, it should be noted that since the melting point of the plastic resin is generally high, when kneading at a corresponding temperature for a long time, the mechanical chain of the material is degraded because the polymer chain is cut by heat. Therefore, it is important to fully understand the properties of rubber and plastics and knead them for the shortest time possible.
After CMB manufacture, sulfur and vulcanization accelerator are added to the final kneaded rubber to make FMB (Final Master Batch) material.
The mixing ratio of rubber and plastic can be determined by the physical properties and production process required for the tire. The required physical properties include hardness, tensile strength and elongation, and shielding performance. The properties required in the production process include uncured rubber behavior, vulcanization rate and viscosity.
The tire is a component that is composed of materials with different characteristics, and it can be molded only when the unvulcanized behavior characteristics with other materials are similar, and the durability of the tire must be satisfied after the product is molded. The composition and content of the formulation can be adjusted to meet these requirements, the composition of the plastic is 5 to 60 wt% in the total formulation, the composition of the rubber can be up to 90 to 30% by weight of the total formulation. The composition of other carbon blacks and various additives can be up to 3 to 60% by weight of the total formulation.
If the composition ratio of the plastic in the compounding composition is higher than 60% by weight, not only tire molding is difficult because the total hardness is too high, but cracking may occur due to stretching fatigue during driving. On the other hand, if the composition ratio of the plastic is less than 5% by weight, the shielding property is lowered, and mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation are lowered, so that the composition ratio of the compounding within a certain amount can be adjusted. On the contrary, when the composition of the rubber is 30% by weight or less, the hardness is excessively high, and the mechanical properties are deteriorated, while when the composition ratio is higher than 90% by weight, the desired shielding performance cannot be obtained.
The composition of other fillers and additives should likewise be adjusted to take into account the mechanical properties, shielding and formability of the material.
Hereinafter, the effects of the present invention will be described in detail through examples and comparative examples according to the present invention.
Examples 1 to 8
Air permeability coefficients were measured through high-shielding materials containing rubber and plastic resins in specific proportions. Table 1 shows the composition ratios and air permeability coefficients of Examples 1 to 8.

Table 3 below shows the composition ratios of carbon black, process oil, zinc oxide, sulfur, Relative parts by weight of accelerator, stearic acid are indicated.
Air permeation performance under high pressure was performed using the specimen prepared as in Example and Comparative Example. The pressure condition is about 3 atmospheres, and the smaller the air permeability coefficient, the better the shielding performance. Comparative example is butyl rubber, which is a tire inner liner material, which is composed of polar rubber and polar plastic, and has 3 ~ 4 times better shielding performance than butyl rubber. ~ 7 times better shielding performance.
Therefore, if the current air leakage performance of the tire is maintained at the same, when applying the material developed by the present invention it can be formed thin to 1/3 to 1/7 of the thickness of the existing inner liner.
Having described the specific part of the present invention in detail, it is apparent to those skilled in the art that such a specific technology is only a preferred embodiment, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the substantial scope of the present invention will be defined by the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
