Definitions
- This invention is related to modified alkylphenol aldehyde resins and process for preparing them from the reactions of alkylphenols, aldehydes, amines, rosins and fatty acids. When used in rubber compounds, these modified alkylphenol aldehyde resins provide much improved tack properties.
- SBR styrene-butadiene
- BR butadiene
- natural rubber has sufficient inherent tack for most applications so that tackifying agents may not be necessary.
- Styrene-butadiene (SBR) has a relatively low polarity compared to other synthetic rubbers; unlike natural rubber, SBR does not develop surface peroxidal activity upon mastication. Therefore, SBR has relatively poor inherent or processed tack.
- Tires are typically constructed by applying layers of rubber-coated fabric one to another, followed by a breaker strip, cushion, and tread.
- the layers must possess sufficient surface tack to adhere firmly one to another and to maintain the desired relative position of the various parts prior to vulcanization. Absence of tack causes difficulty in the building operation.
- the tack of un cured rubber compounds has always been one of the most important properties required for building tires
- Tack of uncured rubber components, particularly treads is an important property for building rubber articles, such as tires.
- the term “tack” refers to the ability of two uncured rubber materials or surfaces to resist separation after bringing them into contact for a short time under relatively light pressure. It is important that uncured components, such as those in a tire, especially the tread, exhibit tack so that rubber components can be securely adhered and so that splices resist separation prior to vulcanization.
- tackifiers are often used to provide building tack to rubber compounds.
- Other than natural rubber, synthetic rubber does not have the sufficient building tack. Therefore resin must be added to increase tack.
- Building tack is an important prerequisite to enable tyre building from flat layered materials. This building tack provides the handling strength of green tyres until they are vulcanized. Another important feature is tack retention. Tire segments are premanufactured and then stored. During the storage time the building tack should not change.
- Tackifiers used in the manufacture of tires, should be compatible with synthetic rubbers and exhibit the desired tackifying effects on the synthetic rubbers. Tackifiers have a very low reactivity with the synthetic rubbers. This means that there is no substantial reaction occurs between the synthetic rubber and the tackifiers upon heating.
- Tackifying resins can be divided into three groups: hydrocarbon resins, rosin resins and phenolic resins. Generally, there are two different types of tackifier resins used by the rubber industry: hydrocarbon resin tackifiers and phenolic resin tackifiers. Sometimes, blends of hydrocarbon resin and phenolic resin tackifiers are used. Hydrocarbon tackifier resins provide good initial tack, but typically do not provide good long-term tack. Phenolic tackifiers provide good initial and long-term tack, but are typically expensive.
- the hydrocarbon resins are less expensive than are the phenolic resins, but require the use of up to three times the amount to give equivalent tack with tack retention being adversely affected. Since tackifiers which remain in the fabricated rubber article can tend to detract from the properties of the rubber, phenolic resins are often advantageously used because of the lower level required.
- the hydrocarbon resins include aliphatic, aromatic and alicyclic resins having a number average molecular weight of generally about 500 to about 5,000 and a softening point of at least 70 0 C. These resins, in general, are obtained, for example, by polymerizing isoprene, cyclopentadiene or dicyclopentadiene which is a C5 fraction obtained as a by-product in the thermal cracking of petroleum naphtha, or a styrene derivative or indene which is a C 9 fraction, also obtained in the thermal cracking of petroleum naphtha.
- phenolic resins para-tert-octylphenol (PTOP) and para-tert-butylphenol (PTBP) based novolaks are predominantly used by the tire industry.
- PTOP para-tert-octylphenol
- PTBP para-tert-butylphenol
- tack retention of 8 days could be possible.
- Koresin® price is very high and its availability is limited.
- Rosin was used as a tackifying resin. Rosin is mainly a mixture of C20, tricyclic fused-ring, monocarboxylic acids, typified by pimaric and abietic acids, which are commonly referred to as "rosin acids.” Rosin resins have a wide span of compatibility with almost all polymers. They are well known for their peel and tack contribution to the adhesive strength.
- Phenolic-modified rosin esters are seldom employed as tackifiers. Based upon the foregoing, even though a number of different kinds of materials are currently available for use as tackifier resins, there is a need in the art for a tackifier for a rubber compound, wherein the tackifier provides good initial and long-term tack.
- the present invention is directed to such a tackifier and a rubber compound containing the same.
- the current invention also provides a process for synthesizing or manufacturing modified phenolic tackifying resins and develops rubber compositions containing such resins.
- vulcanizable rubber compositions having improved tack properties are obtained by the use of novel and efficient phenolic tackifier resins prepared by the reactions of para-alkylphenols, aldehydes, primary or secondary amines, rosin acids and / or fatty acids.
- One aspect of the present invention is to provide modified and more efficient phenolic resin tackifier resins for synthetic rubber compositions.
- Another aspect is to provide a method of synthesizing or manufacturing this tackifier resins from the reactions of alkylphenol resoles containing terminal methylol groups with morpholine, rosin acids and / or fatty acids.

- R 3 and R4 are independently selected from the group comprising hydrogen, alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; alkenyl group of 2 to 6 carbon atoms; aryl and substituted aryl; hydroxyethyl; hydroxypropyl; carboxyalkyl; and together with nitrogen forming a heterocyclic 5 or 6 membered ring; and then with rosin acid and / or longer chain aliphatic carboxylic acids.

MODIFIED PHENOLIC TACKIFYING RESINS FOR RUBBER COMPOUNDING APPLICATIONS
Technical Field
This invention is related to modified alkylphenol aldehyde resins and process for preparing them from the reactions of alkylphenols, aldehydes, amines, rosins and fatty acids. When used in rubber compounds, these modified alkylphenol aldehyde resins provide much improved tack properties.
Background for the Current Invention
Modern radial and bias/belted passenger car tires are designed to provide good crack and abrasion resistance, low hysteresis, low rolling resistance, and good gas mileage as well as long service life. In order to achieve this, tire industries employ blends of styrene-butadiene (SBR) and butadiene (BR) rubber in the rubber formulations, particularly in tread cap and under tread compounds. Generally, natural rubber has sufficient inherent tack for most applications so that tackifying agents may not be necessary. Styrene-butadiene (SBR) has a relatively low polarity compared to other synthetic rubbers; unlike natural rubber, SBR does not develop surface peroxidal activity upon mastication. Therefore, SBR has relatively poor inherent or processed tack.
The need for improved rubber tack is probably most apparent in the tire industry. Tires are typically constructed by applying layers of rubber-coated fabric one to another, followed by a breaker strip, cushion, and tread. The layers must possess sufficient surface tack to adhere firmly one to another and to maintain the desired relative position of the various parts prior to vulcanization. Absence of tack causes difficulty in the building operation. Thus, the tack of un cured rubber compounds has always been one of the most important properties required for building tires
Tack of uncured rubber components, particularly treads, is an important property for building rubber articles, such as tires. The term "tack" refers to the ability of two uncured rubber materials or surfaces to resist separation after bringing them into contact for a short time under relatively light pressure. It is important that uncured components, such as those in a tire, especially the tread, exhibit tack so that rubber components can be securely adhered and so that splices resist separation prior to vulcanization.
Lack of sufficient tack in uncured rubber components, especially treads, has been an ongoing problem.
In the tyre industry, tackifiers are often used to provide building tack to rubber compounds. Other than natural rubber, synthetic rubber does not have the sufficient building tack. Therefore
resin must be added to increase tack. Building tack is an important prerequisite to enable tyre building from flat layered materials. This building tack provides the handling strength of green tyres until they are vulcanized. Another important feature is tack retention. Tire segments are premanufactured and then stored. During the storage time the building tack should not change.
Tackifiers, used in the manufacture of tires, should be compatible with synthetic rubbers and exhibit the desired tackifying effects on the synthetic rubbers. Tackifiers have a very low reactivity with the synthetic rubbers. This means that there is no substantial reaction occurs between the synthetic rubber and the tackifiers upon heating.
Tackifying resins can be divided into three groups: hydrocarbon resins, rosin resins and phenolic resins. Generally, there are two different types of tackifier resins used by the rubber industry: hydrocarbon resin tackifiers and phenolic resin tackifiers. Sometimes, blends of hydrocarbon resin and phenolic resin tackifiers are used. Hydrocarbon tackifier resins provide good initial tack, but typically do not provide good long-term tack. Phenolic tackifiers provide good initial and long-term tack, but are typically expensive.
The hydrocarbon resins are less expensive than are the phenolic resins, but require the use of up to three times the amount to give equivalent tack with tack retention being adversely affected. Since tackifiers which remain in the fabricated rubber article can tend to detract from the properties of the rubber, phenolic resins are often advantageously used because of the lower level required.
The hydrocarbon resins include aliphatic, aromatic and alicyclic resins having a number average molecular weight of generally about 500 to about 5,000 and a softening point of at least 70 0C. These resins, in general, are obtained, for example, by polymerizing isoprene, cyclopentadiene or dicyclopentadiene which is a C5 fraction obtained as a by-product in the thermal cracking of petroleum naphtha, or a styrene derivative or indene which is a C9 fraction, also obtained in the thermal cracking of petroleum naphtha.
In the case of phenolic resins, para-tert-octylphenol (PTOP) and para-tert-butylphenol (PTBP) based novolaks are predominantly used by the tire industry. With phenolic novolak resins tack retention of 2 days is achievable, and with a special resin made from para-tert-butylphenol and acetylene (Koresin® - BASF)), tack retention of 8 days could be possible. However, the Koresin® price is very high and its availability is limited.
Before the introduction of novolak resins, rosin was used as a tackifying resin. Rosin is mainly a mixture of C20, tricyclic fused-ring, monocarboxylic acids, typified by pimaric and abietic acids, which are commonly referred to as "rosin acids." Rosin resins have a wide span of compatibility with almost all polymers. They are well known for their peel and tack contribution to the adhesive strength.
Phenolic-modified rosin esters are seldom employed as tackifiers.
Based upon the foregoing, even though a number of different kinds of materials are currently available for use as tackifier resins, there is a need in the art for a tackifier for a rubber compound, wherein the tackifier provides good initial and long-term tack. The present invention is directed to such a tackifier and a rubber compound containing the same. The current invention also provides a process for synthesizing or manufacturing modified phenolic tackifying resins and develops rubber compositions containing such resins.
Summary of Invention
According to the current invention, vulcanizable rubber compositions having improved tack properties are obtained by the use of novel and efficient phenolic tackifier resins prepared by the reactions of para-alkylphenols, aldehydes, primary or secondary amines, rosin acids and / or fatty acids. One aspect of the present invention is to provide modified and more efficient phenolic resin tackifier resins for synthetic rubber compositions. Another aspect is to provide a method of synthesizing or manufacturing this tackifier resins from the reactions of alkylphenol resoles containing terminal methylol groups with morpholine, rosin acids and / or fatty acids.
Detailed Description of the Current Invention
The modified phenolic tackifying resins of this invention are prepared by reacting one or more substituted phenolic compounds selected from the group of compounds represented by the general formula (a)
wherein R is independently selected from the alkyl groups or radicals of 1 to 18 carbon atoms in their various isomeric forms and substituted on the phenolic nucleus in the ortho-, meta- or para- positions; alicyclic groups of 5 to 18 carbon atoms such as cyclohexyl, cyclopentyl, methyl cyclohexyl, or butyl-cyclohexyl; alkyl and alicyclic ketonic groups; alkyl and alicyclic carboxylic groups and aryl substituted alkyl wherein the aryl is phenyl which may contain lower alkyl and/or hydroxyl substituents so that the resulting phenol is for example a bisphenol; with one or more aldehyde or ketone compounds represented by the general formula (b)
O -R2 W
wherein Ri and R2 groups can be independently hydrogen; alkyl groups or radicals of 1 to carbon atoms; a cycloalkyl; in the presence of base to obtain the phenolic resole mixture comprising the following general structural formulae (c - f );
In the above formulae, Ri and R2 groups can be independently hydrogen; alkyl groups or radicals of 1 to 8 carbon atoms; a cycloalkyl; R5 and Re are independently hydrogen or methylol groups; and x plus y is at least 1.
Then the resole mixtures are modified by reacting first with amine compounds selected from the group comprising the general formula (g)
-NH- (9) wherein R3 and R4 are independently selected from the group comprising hydrogen, alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; alkenyl group of 2 to 6 carbon atoms; aryl and substituted aryl; hydroxyethyl; hydroxypropyl; carboxyalkyl; and together with nitrogen forming a heterocyclic 5 or 6 membered ring; and then with rosin acid and / or longer chain aliphatic carboxylic acids.
The aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic mono or polyamine compounds containing at least one amine group can be used in the modifications. Preferably 1 , 8-p-menthane diamine, ethylene diamine, tri ethylene tetramine, 1, 3-bis(aminomethyl) cyclohexane, m- xylylenediamine, monoethanolamine, diethanolamine and morpholine can be used.
Suitable substituted alkylphenols include the following: para - tertiary- butylphenol (PTBP), para-secondary-butylphenol, para-tert-hexylphenol, para-isooctylphenol; para-tert-octylphenol (PTOP), para-cydohexylphenol, para-decylphenol, para-dodecylphenol, para-tetradecyl phenol,
para-octadecylphenol, para-nonylphenol, para-methylphenol, para-pentadecylphenol, para- cetylphenol, bisphenols, such as para,para' - isopropylidenediphenol, para,para'- methylenediphenol, a phenol alkylated with oleic acid, as well as the corresponding ortho and meta derivatives of the previously mentioned compounds such as meta- butyl phenol and ortho-butyl phenol, as well as mixtures thereof. Suitable alkylphenols that can be advantageously used to prepare the tackifying resins are para-tert-butylphenol (PTBP and para-tert-octylphenol (PTOP) or mixtures of these two.
From the above lists, it is apparent that many alkylphenols may be used in practicing the present invention provided the alkylphenol employed has a reactive phenolic hydroxyl group and is capable of reacting with aldehydes, such as formaldehyde, to produce a condensate. The pure refined alkylphenols may be used, but this is not always necessary. For instance, phenols may be alkylated and then may be reacted with an aldehyde as the crude product which may contain some polyalkylated, as well as unalkylated phenols. Mixtures of variously substituted phenols may also be used.
In the preparation of the parent phenol-aldehyde condensates, suitable aldehydes or mixtures of aldehydes capable of reacting with a phenol and having not more than eight carbon atoms are satisfactory provided they do not detrimentally affect the resinification, esterification of oxyalkylation of the resin. The preferred aldehydes are aldehydes having 1 to 8 carbon atoms such as formaldehyde, which may be in aqueous solution or in any of its low polymeric forms such as paraformaldehyde or trioxane, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, n-butyraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, n-valeraldehyde, heptaldehyde and octaldehyde. Other examples of aldehydes include paraldehyde, furfural, 2-ethylhexanal, ethylbutyraldehyde and glyoxal. Formaldehyde in the form of paraformaldehyde or aqueous formalin/formaldehyde solutions or in the form of any compound generating formaldehyde for chemical reactions can be used. It is possible to use mixtures of aldehydes. The most preferred aldehyde is aqueous formaldehyde or solid paraformaldehyde or a mixture of these two.
The resole for the preparation of modified tackifier resin can be conveniently prepared with a mole ratio of aldehyde, for example formaldehyde, to para-alkylphenol, for example para-tert- butylphenol, in the rage of about 1.0 to 2.5, and particularly in the range of about 1.0 to 1.5.
A resole resin containing a mixture of variously substituted methylol groups from the reactions of para-alkylphenol with formaldehyde in the presence of basic catalyst can be conveniently represented by the following general reaction scheme.
The formation of such chemical structures depends on various conditions such as the molar ratios of alkylphenol and formaldehyde, reaction temperatures and times, reaction medium, nature of catalysts and amounts, and so on.
A basic catalyst material such as ammonium hydroxide; tertiary amines such as triethylamine, triethanolamine, diethyl cyclohexyl amine, triisobutyl amine; alkali and alkaline earth metal oxides and hydroxides can be used to form the resoles.
In the preparation of alkylphenol resoles, suitable organic solvents either miscible or immiscible with the reaction medium can be used. Aromatic and aliphatic (including cycloaliphatic) hydrocarbons can be employed as solvents for a given resin, including benzene, toluene, xylene, naphthalene, nonane, octane and petroleum fractions.
The resole resin can also be conveniently prepared from the para-alkylphenol-formaldehyde novolak polymer based on the following reaction scheme.
From the above reaction scheme, alkylphenol and formaldehyde are reacted first in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce novolak type structures. Then, the resoles containing methylol groups are prepared under the basic conditions from the novolak resin.
Suitable acidic catalysts to prepare the alkylphenol novolaks are an alkyl, aryl and aralkyl sulfonic acids, such as ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, benzenedisulfonic acid, chlorobenzenesulfonic acid, 3,4-dichlorobenzene sulfonic acid, cresolsulfonic acids, phenol
sulfonic acids, toluenesulfonic acids, xylenesulfonic acids, octylphenolsulfonic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, 1 -naphthol-4-sulfonic acid, dodecylsulfonic acid and an oxalic acid.
The resole product produced by the reaction of alkylphenol with formaldehyde as described can be used to obtain modified phenolic tackifier resins of this invention. As those skilled in the art fully appreciate, the methylol content and the degree of advancement are readily controllable, so that one can optimize such a resole resin for use in a particular application. For purposes of this invention, a alkylphenol-formaldehyde resole resin can be regarded as being the reaction product of the above-described alkylphenols and formaldehyde under the aqueous base catalyzed conditions as described herein which can be further modified with primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, rosin acids and / or longer chain aliphatic carboxylic acids.
In the preparation of a rosin-modified alkylphenolic resin by the reaction of a resole type addition-condensation product with a rosin, the active groups such as a methylol or methylene ether group of the resole type addition-condensation product and the active groups such as a conjugated double bond of the rosin are consumed partially or completely by the formation of a coumarone ring or by self-condensation in the course of the reaction. Therefore, the rosin- modified phenolic resin may scarcely contain these active groups after the modifications.
Rosin is mainly a mixture of C20, fused-ring, monocarboxylic acids, typified by levopimaric and abietic acids, both of which are susceptible to numerous chemical transformations. The rosins to which this invention relates include gum rosin, wood rosin, and tall oil rosin or the rosin acids contained therein as for example, abietic acid, pimaric acid, sapinic acid, etc. There are no specific restrictions with respect to the rosin type that can be employed to develop modified novolak resins of this invention.
In the modification of phenolic tackifying resins of this invention, longer chain aliphatic fatty acids can be employed. The fatty acids may be saturated or unsaturated mono-carboxylic acids having at least 8 carbon atoms in the chain. Preferably, the saturated fatty acids have 8 to 32 carbon atoms can be used. Suitable saturated fatty acids include caprylic, capric, undecylic, lauric and stearic. Suitable unsaturated fatty acids include oleic and undecylic acids. Synthetic fatty acid mixtures obtained by saponification of vegetable oils can also be used in the resin modifications. The most preferred aliphatic acid is stearic acid.
With the combination of a para-alkylphenol, formaldehyde, morpholine and rosin acid, the most probable reaction scheme outlining the preparation of a modified phenolic tackifying resin in the presence of basic conditions is shown below.
In addition, these modified phenolic resins can also be prepared starting from the para- alkylphenol novolak resins. In this case, the resoles are prepared from the para-alkylphenol novolak resins produced in the presence an acid and then modified with morpholine and rosin acids. This reaction scheme is shown below.
Depending upon the reaction conditions such as the type of alkylphenol and aldehyde, reaction temperature and time, reaction pH and nature of solvent, the resole reaction mixture may contain methylol groups of varying structural characteristics. In general, these modified phenolic tackifying resins may be obtained from the reactions of morpholine and rosin acids with para-alkylphenol - aldehyde condensation product having following structure.
where, R is an alkyl chain, Ri and R2 are independently hydrogen or alkyl chain; R5 and K6 are independently hydrogen or methylol groups and x plus y is at least 1.
The inventive modified phenolic tackifying resins can be suitably used in various rubber compositions. In addition to natural rubber (NR) compositions, other synthetic rubber compositions, for example, butadiene rubber (BR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), halogenated isoprene isobutylene rubber (XIIR), nitrile rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR), EPDM and chloroprene rubber (CR) or mixtures also can use this modified phenolic
resins to achieve improved tack properties. Blends of various rubbers can of course be used in this invention, particularly desirable of which are blends of natural and synthetic rubbers. There are no specific restrictions with respect to the rubber type.
The rubber compositions containing the modified phenolic tackifying resins of this invention may be used in any part of a tyre, for example, side wall compounds, apex, inner liners, under tread cement. However, they are also useful in general for a wide variety of industrial goods, such as rubber based products or goods, or (pressure sensitive) adhesives, hot melts.
Therefore, the object of this invention is to provide rubber compositions or compounds with good building tack and good tack retention properties. Building tack and tack retention should be comparable or even better as for rubber compositions containing conventional tackifiers such as novolak resins based on tert-butylphenol or tert-octylphenol or Koresin®.

In a second stage, tackifying resins prepared according to the methods of Examples 1 and 2, 6PPD and TMQ were then mixed into an appropriate amount of the master batch on the Banbury mixer at about 140 0C. The insoluble sulfur and sulfonamide accelerator were mixed in the third stage open mill mixer at about 100 0C and sheeted. The test compounds were conditioned overnight in a constant temperature room at about 23 0C and 50% relative humidity. The compounds were then tested for rheometer cure, shaped and optimum cured at 150 0C for the evaluation of mechanical properties.
Cure properties were measured with an Alpha Technology MDR 2000 Rheometer at 151 0C, 1° arc and 1.67 Hz according to ASTM D 5289 and ISO 6502 test methods. In such an oscillating disc rheometer, compounded rubber samples are subjected to an oscillating shearing action of constant amplitude. The torque of the oscillating disc embedded in the stock that is being tested that is required to oscillate the rotor at the vulcanization temperature is measured. The test data are given in Table 2.
