- the latex and, optionally, oil and antioxidants is mixed with the treated silica slurry to form a preblend.
- the preblend is most suitable for making masterbatches by coagulating and then drying, or simply by drying alone.
- coagulation is used to prepare the masterbatch
- standard emulsion rubber latex co- agulants or latex destabilizers such as solutions of mineral salts, solutions of mineral acids in water either alone or in combination with flocculation aids may be used to destabilize the preblend and so obtain the masterbatch in the form of a wet crumb.
- the coagulation can be can be carried out either as a batch process or as a continuous process. These and other techniques are well known to those skilled in the art of latex coagulation.
- the preblend may be coagulated by means of high shear, such as by passing it through a small orifice at high flow rates.
- the wet masterbatch crumb (i.e., the coagulum of the preblend) is then separated from the coagulation liquid "serum" by screening or other solid-liquid separation process.
- the coagulated wet masterbatch crumb may be further treated by washing, and or dewatered by pressing. It is finally dried by conventional means such as hot air oven, microwave or fluidized bed drier to yield the dry masterbatch.
- the masterbatch also may be prepared without the coagulation step simply by drying the preblend, for example by hot-air spray drying, by means of a wiped-film evapo- rator or drying extruder or the like.
- the dry masterbatch by coagulating the preblend with solutions of mineral acids and/or solutions of mineral salts in water either alone or in combination with flocculation aids, separating the crumb by screening, washing the crumb with water and then drying the wet crumb by a hot air dryer.
- Another object of the invention is the filled latex in the wet state, i.e., the preblend itself.
- the preblend can be used as such, or with additional stabilizers, for the production of : paints, dipped goods such as rubber gloves, dental dams, balloons and specialty innertubes, or for coating fabrics, carpet backings and paper.
- the filled latex is also a suitable base for architectural caulks, either alone or in combination with ancillary ingredients.

- Other fillers may also be added to the rubber mixes.
- rubber gels and/or carbon blacks may also be used.
- the carbon blacks which may be used for this purpose are well known in the rubber industry and may be manufactured using the lamp black, furnace black or channel black processes and have BET areas of 20 to 200 nr/g. Examples include SAF, ISAF, HAF, FEF and GPF carbon blacks.
- the rubber additives are used in quantities well-known to those of skill in the art, which are based partly on the intended application. These quantities may be between 0.1 and 50 % by wt. in relation to the total quantity of rubber.
- Sulphur, sulphur donors or peroxides may be used as crosslinking agents in the manufacture of said moulded or extruded parts.
- the rubber mixes referred above also preferably contain vulcanization accelerators.
- vulcanization accelerators include mercaptobenzothiazoles, guanidines, thiurams, dithiocarbamates, thioureas and thiocarbonates.
- the vulcanisation accelerators, along with sulphur or peroxide, are used in quantities of 0.1 to 10 %> by wt. (optimum: 0.1 to 5 % by wt.) in relation to the total quantity of rubber.
- the above mentioned materials may be conveniently incorporated into the masterbatch by simple mixing, i.e., in a Banbury or other type of internal mixer, a mixing extruder, or on an open mill. Single or multiple mixing steps may be employed.
- the mixed compound may then be placed in a mold or otherwise formed to the desired shape.
- Vulcanization can be carried out at temperatures of 100-200 °C (optimum: 130 to 180 °C), if necessary, under pressures of 10-200 bar.
