 上記課題は、下記構成により解決可能である。すなわち、本発明は、エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴム、シリカ、シランカップリング剤、および硫黄を含有し、前記エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムは、エチレン含有量が50重量%以上、かつムーニー粘度(ML1+4(125℃))が65以上であり、前記エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムを含むゴム成分の全量を100重量部としたとき、シリカの配合量が12~24重量部かつ硫黄の配合量が0.75~2.5重量部であることを特徴とする防振ゴム用ゴム組成物に関する。 The above problem can be solved by the following configuration. That is, the present invention contains an ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber, silica, a silane coupling agent, and sulfur, and the ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber contains ethylene. The rubber component having a content of 50% by weight or more and a Mooney viscosity (ML 1 + 4 (125 ° C.)) of 65 or more and containing the ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber is 100 parts by weight. Then, the present invention relates to a rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, wherein the amount of silica is 12 to 24 parts by weight and the amount of sulfur is 0.75 to 2.5 parts by weight.
 上記発明では、防振ゴム用ゴム組成物中にゴム成分として特定のEPDMを配合し、これにシリカおよびシランカップリング剤を加え、硫黄架橋を行う。その結果、本発明に係る防振ゴム用ゴム組成物を加硫した防振ゴムでは、高温時の耐クリープ性を悪化させることなく、防振性能を向上することができる。かかる効果が得られる理由は明らかでは無いが、上記特定のEPDMを硫黄架橋することにより、架橋密度が高まり、防振ゴムとしたときの粘弾性に関し、粘性項に対し、弾性項が支配的となる。その結果、低動倍率化が図れると共に、シリカが存在することと相俟って、高温時の弾性率低下が抑制され、高温時の耐クリープ性が向上することが原因と考えられる。 In the above invention, specific EPDM is blended as a rubber component in the rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, and silica and a silane coupling agent are added thereto to perform sulfur crosslinking. As a result, the anti-vibration rubber obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition for anti-vibration rubber according to the present invention can improve the anti-vibration performance without deteriorating the creep resistance at high temperature. The reason why such an effect is obtained is not clear, but by crosslinking the specific EPDM with sulfur, the crosslinking density is increased, and the elastic term is dominant over the viscous term with respect to viscoelasticity when used as a vibration-proof rubber. Become. As a result, the reduction in dynamic magnification can be achieved, and coupled with the presence of silica, the decrease in elastic modulus at high temperature is suppressed, and the creep resistance at high temperature is improved.
 上記防振ゴム用ゴム組成物において、ゴム成分の全量を100重量%としたとき、前記エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムを100重量%含有することが好ましい。かかる構成によれば、ゴム組成物の加工性を悪化させることなく、ゴム組成物を加硫することにより得られる防振ゴムの防振性能を向上することができるため好ましい。 In the rubber composition for an anti-vibration rubber, the ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber is preferably contained at 100% by weight when the total amount of the rubber component is 100% by weight. This configuration is preferable because the vibration-proof performance of the vibration-proof rubber obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition can be improved without deteriorating the processability of the rubber composition.
 上記防振ゴム用ゴム組成物において、ゴム成分の全量を100重量部としたとき、さらにオイルを21~38重量部含有することが好ましい。かかる防振ゴム用ゴム組成物は、防振ゴム用ゴム組成物中にゴム成分として特定のEPDMを配合し、これにシリカおよびシランカップリング剤を加え、硫黄架橋を行う。その結果、かかる防振ゴム用ゴム組成物を加硫した防振ゴムでは、高温時の耐クリープ性を悪化させることなく、防振性能を向上することができる。かかる効果が得られる理由は明らかでは無いが、上記特定のEPDMを硫黄架橋することにより、架橋密度が高まり、防振ゴムとしたときの粘弾性に関し、粘性項に対し、弾性項が支配的となる。その結果、低動倍率化が図れると共に、シリカが存在することと相俟って、高温時の弾性率低下が抑制され、高温時の耐クリープ性が向上することが原因と考えられる。さらに、かかる防振ゴム用ゴム組成物中にゴム成分として特定のEPDMを配合しているため、ゴム組成物の加工性を悪化することなく、オイル配合量を低減することができる。その結果、加硫後の防振ゴムを高硬度化し、耐へたり性を向上することができる。 In the rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, it is preferable to further contain 21 to 38 parts by weight of oil when the total amount of rubber components is 100 parts by weight. In such a rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, specific EPDM is blended as a rubber component in the rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, and silica and a silane coupling agent are added thereto to perform sulfur crosslinking. As a result, the anti-vibration rubber obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition for anti-vibration rubber can improve the anti-vibration performance without deteriorating the creep resistance at high temperature. The reason why such an effect is obtained is not clear, but by crosslinking the specific EPDM with sulfur, the crosslinking density is increased, and the elastic term is dominant over the viscous term with respect to viscoelasticity when used as a vibration-proof rubber. Become. As a result, the reduction in dynamic magnification can be achieved, and coupled with the presence of silica, the decrease in elastic modulus at high temperature is suppressed, and the creep resistance at high temperature is improved. Furthermore, since specific EPDM is blended as a rubber component in the rubber composition for vibration-proof rubber, the amount of oil blended can be reduced without deteriorating the processability of the rubber composition. As a result, the anti-vibration rubber after vulcanization can be increased in hardness and sag resistance can be improved.
 上記防振ゴム用ゴム組成物において、前記エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムを含むゴム成分の全量を100重量部としたとき、さらにカーボンブラックを30~60重量部含有することが好ましい。これにより、加硫後の防振ゴムをさらに高硬度化し、耐へたり性を特に向上することができる。 In the rubber composition for an anti-vibration rubber, when the total amount of the rubber component including the ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber is 100 parts by weight, the rubber composition further contains 30 to 60 parts by weight of carbon black. Is preferred. Thereby, the anti-vibration rubber after vulcanization can be further increased in hardness, and the sag resistance can be particularly improved.
 また本発明は、ゴム成分の全量を100重量%としたとき、エチレン含有量が50重量%以上、かつムーニー粘度(ML1+4(125℃))が65以上であるエチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムを100重量%以上することを特徴とする防振ゴム用ゴム組成物に関する。 The present invention also provides an ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene having an ethylene content of 50% by weight or more and a Mooney viscosity (ML1 + 4 (125 ° C.)) of 65 or more when the total amount of rubber components is 100% by weight.

As a result, the vibration-proof performance of the vibration-proof rubber obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition can be improved without deteriorating the processability of the rubber composition.
 上記防振ゴム用ゴム組成物において、前記エチレン-α-オレフィン-非共役ジエン共重合体ゴムのエチレン含有量が60重量%以上であり、かつゴム成分の全量を100重量部としたとき、シリカを12~24重量部、かつ硫黄を1.2重量部未満含有することが好ましい。かかる防振ゴム用ゴム組成物では、硫黄の配合量を抑えつつ、上記特定のEPDMを100重量%配合する。その結果、ゴム組成物の加工性を悪化させることなく、ゴム組成物を加硫することにより得られる防振ゴムの防振性能を向上させることができるとともに、高温時の耐クリープ性および強度物性も向上させることができる。 In the rubber composition for an anti-vibration rubber, when the ethylene content of the ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated diene copolymer rubber is 60% by weight or more and the total amount of rubber components is 100 parts by weight, silica It is preferable to contain 12 to 24 parts by weight and less than 1.2 parts by weight of sulfur. In such a rubber composition for an anti-vibration rubber, the specific EPDM is blended in an amount of 100% by weight while suppressing the amount of sulfur. As a result, the anti-vibration performance of the anti-vibration rubber obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition can be improved without deteriorating the processability of the rubber composition, and the creep resistance and strength properties at high temperatures can be improved.
