A representative example of a capped organoalkoxymercaptosilane coupling agent is a liquid 3-octanoylthio-1-propyltriethoxysilane, commercially available as NXT™ Silane from Momentive Performance Materials Inc.
- Mixtures of various organosilane polysulfide compounds and organoalkoxymercaptosilanes can be used.
- The amount of coupling agent in the rubber composition is the amount needed to produce acceptable results, which is easily determined by one skilled in the art. The amount of coupling agent is typically based on the weight of the silica in the composition, and may be from about 0.1% to about 20% by weight of silica, from about 1% to about 15% by weight of silica, or alternatively from about 1% to about 10% by weight of silica.
- Other ingredients that may be added to the rubber composition include, but are not limited to, oils, waxes, scorch inhibiting agents, tackifying resins, reinforcing resins, fatty acids such as stearic acid, and peptizers. These ingredients are known in the art, and may be added in appropriate amounts based on the desired physical and mechanical properties of the rubber composition.
- A vulcanizing agent is added to the rubber composition. Suitable vulcanizing agents are known in the art, and may be added in appropriate amounts based on the desired physical, mechanical, and cure rate properties of the rubber composition. Examples of vulcanizing agents include sulfur and sulfur donating compounds. The amount of the vulcanizing agent used in the rubber composition may, in certain embodiments, be from about 0.1 to about 10 phr, or from about 1 to about 5 parts by weight per 100 phr.
- At least one vulcanization accelerator is added to the rubber composition. The type of vulcanization accelerator is not particularly limited. Numerous accelerators are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, diphenyl guanidine (DPG), tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD), 4,4′-dithiodimorpholine (DTDM), tetrabutylthiuram disulfide (TBTD), benzothiazyl disulfide (MBTS), 2-(morpholinothio) benzothiazole (MBS), N-tert-butyl-2-benzothiazole sulfonamide (TBBS), N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazole sulfonamide (CBS), and mixtures thereof. The total amount of vulcanization accelerator(s) used in the rubber composition may be from about 0.1 to about 10 phr or from about 1 to about 5 phr.
- The rubber composition may be formed by mixing the ingredients together by methods known in the art, such as, for example, by kneading the ingredients together in a Banbury mixer.
- As mentioned herein above, the rubber composition is formed by mixing the ingredients together in at least two mixing steps: at least one preparatory mixing step and a final mixing step. A preparatory mixing step is one in which no vulcanization agent, such as sulfur, is added. In the preparatory mixing step(s), the ingredients may be mixed to a temperature of about 140° C. to about 190° C., or to a temperature of about 150° C. to about 180° C. , or alternatively to a temperature of about 160° C. to about 175° C. If more than one preparatory mixing step is utilized, the temperatures of the preparatory mixing steps may be the same or different.
- A final mixing step is one in which a vulcanizing agent, such as sulfur, is added. The final mixing step may be mixed to a temperature below the vulcanization temperature in order to avoid unwanted pre-cure of the rubber composition. Therefore, the temperature of the productive mixing stage should not exceed about 120° C. and is typically about 40° C. to about 120° C., or about 60° C. to about 110° C. and, especially, about 75° C. to about 100° C.
- The composition is preferably allowed to cool to a temperature of 50° C. or lower between individual mixing steps.
- One aspect of this disclosure is the fact that at least one vulcanization accelerator is added to the rubber composition during a preparatory mixing step, and no vulcanization accelerator is added during the final mixing step. In other words, all of the vulcanization accelerators are added to the rubber composition during a preparatory mixing step.
- The preparatory mixing step in which the vulcanization accelerator(s) is added may be the same mixing step in which the polymer(s), silica, silica coupling agent, oil(s), and other ingredients are added. In one embodiment, the preparatory mixing step containing the vulcanization accelerator(s) is a mixing step in which only a vulcanization accelerator is added, and is conducted after all polymer(s), silica, and silica coupling agent has been added. In another embodiment, all processing aids, stearic acid, and antidegredants such as N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylene-diamine (6PPD), are added in a subsequent mixing stage to the preparatory mixing stage containing the vulcanization accelerator(s). The vulcanization accelerator(s) may optionally be added in more than one preparatory mixing step.
- Without intending to be bound by theory, it is believed that the addition of a vulcanization accelerator in a preparatory mixing stage catalyzes the silanization reaction between the silica coupling agent and the rubbery polymer. It has unexpectedly been found that adding all of the accelerators of the rubber composition during a preparatory mixing step provides for reduced E′ while maintaining approximately equal tangent delta. Thus, if the rubber composition is used as a tire tread composition, the snow traction of the tread may be improved by the method of this disclosure.
- The rubber composition formed according to the disclosure herein is particularly useful as a tire tread rubber composition. However, in certain embodiments, it may be used as another tire component, such as a sidewall, bead filler, undertread, or a coating for a carcass ply. Additionally, other rubber articles may be formed from the rubber composition of the disclosure, such as an air spring component.
- The present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples. The following examples are presented for purposes of illustration only and are not to be construed in a limiting sense.
- Five rubber compositions, Samples A-E, were prepared from the ingredients shown in Table 1. All amounts shown are in phr. Each of the compositions was mixed in four mixing steps in a Banbury type mixer—three preparatory mixing steps and a final mixing step. The ingredients in each preparatory mixing step were mixed to a temperature of about 175° C. before being dropped from the mixer, while the ingredients in the final mixing step were mixed to a temperature of about 110° C. before being dropped from the mixer.

Dynamic viscoelastic mechanical property determinations for E′ and tangent delta were made by temperature sweep tests conducted at a frequency of 52 Hz using 0.2% strain for temperatures from −50° C. to −6° C. and using 1.0% strain for temperatures from −5° C. to 60° C. The specimens used for dynamic viscoelastic testing were cured for 15 minutes at 170° C., and had the following dimensions: 40 mm long, 4.7 mm wide, and 2 mm thick.

If the rubber composition is used as a tire tread, lower E′@−20° C. is indicative of improved snow traction.
