Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a rubber composition for sidewall and rubber inserts containing silica carrying silica supported on a manganese dioxide catalyst for decomposing ozone, and a tire using the rubber composition for tire sidewall and rubber using manganese dioxide catalyst for decomposing ozone }

The present invention relates to a rubber composition for tire sidewalls and rubber inserts, and a tire using the rubber composition. More particularly, the present invention relates to a rubber composition for use in a rubber composition for tire sidewalls and rubber inserts, which comprises a manganese dioxide catalyst in silica having a relatively high BET, Decomposable eco-friendly side wall and rubber insert for rubber inserts and tires.

Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent, which also has a positive effect on disinfection, but if it is exposed to ozone on its own, it will adversely affect the body, animals and plants. Recently, damage due to increase in ozone concentration has been increasing, and ozone is known to accelerate aging of a tire to deteriorate crack resistance and to shorten the life of a tire.

The manganese dioxide catalyst enables the ozone to be efficiently decomposed at room temperature. However, ozone decomposition using manganese dioxide catalyst requires a separate catalyst unit, and power and facilities to be operated must be maintained continuously.

It is an object of the present invention to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a rubber composition which contains silica in which mica manganese is supported as a filler in a raw material rubber to decompose ozone at room temperature, A rubber composition for a tire sidewall and a rubber insert, and a tire using the rubber composition, which can improve the environmental problem by lowering the ozone concentration of the tire and improve the crack resistance against ozone of the tire to increase the tire life.

The rubber composition for a tire side wall and a rubber insert according to the present invention is characterized by comprising 30 to 80 parts by weight of a filler and 5 to 30 parts by weight of silica bearing manganese dioxide on the basis of 100 parts by weight of the raw rubber.

In the rubber composition for tire side wool and rubber insert according to the present invention, there is no particular limitation on the kind of the raw rubber, and natural rubber, synthetic rubber, natural rubber and synthetic rubber may be mixed and used.

In the rubber composition for a tire side wring and a rubber insert according to the present invention, the type of the filler is not particularly limited, and for example, carbon black or the like can be used. Specifically, carbon black can be used from N100 grade to N660 grade For example N330, N550 and N660 are preferred.

The amount of the filler is preferably 30 to 80 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the raw rubber. If the amount is less than 30 parts by weight, dispersion is possible but the physical properties are very low, which is undesirable. When the amount is more than 80 parts by weight, , The physical properties are high and crack resistance is deteriorated.

In the present invention, the type of the silica is not particularly limited, and it is preferable that the BET is 400 to 1,200 m < 2 > / g with a large surface area and an anionic property. If it is more than 1200 m 2 / g, mixing and dispersion are difficult, which is not preferable.

In the present invention, the amount of silica containing manganese dioxide is preferably 5 to 30 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the raw rubber. If the amount is less than 5 parts by weight, improvement in performance is insufficient and undesirable. If the amount exceeds 30 parts by weight, It is not preferable.

In the present invention, the ratio of the manganese dioxide-loaded silica is preferably 10 to 20 g based on 1 L of silica, and if it is less than 10 g, the effect is insufficient, and if it exceeds 20 g, Which is not desirable.

Silica, wherein the manganese dioxide is a supported, BET is 400 ~ 1200㎡ / g of distilled water and then filtered on, the silica thus obtained are then fired at 400 ℃ ~ 500 ℃, and calcined manganese nitrate solution silica Mn (NO _{3) 2} is supported on the Dried in a vacuum, and then heat-decomposed at 120 to 180 ° C for 30 minutes to 45 minutes to oxidize Mn ⁺² ions to form MnO ₂ .

The rubber composition for a tire side wil and a rubber insert according to the present invention may contain conventional additives such as a reinforcing agent, an activator, a weathering agent, a process oil, an adhesive, a vulcanizing agent and a vulcanizing accelerator added to rubber compositions for general side wool and rubber insert, For example, stearic acid, process oil, sulfur and the like can be further blended.

The tire according to the present invention has a sidewall made of a rubber composition for a tire sidewall and a rubber insert according to the present invention and a rubber insert.

According to the present invention, since the rubber composition for the tire side wall and the rubber insert contains silica in which manganese dioxide is supported on the raw material rubber, the surrounding ozone can be decomposed by the spatial velocity during traveling, and the crack resistance against ozone is improved Thereby improving the life of the tire.
