Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the manufacturing of a composite material, a composite material, the use of a composite material for a molded body, for non-pneumatic tires, in furniture, seating, as cushioning, for car wheels or parts of car wheels, toys, animal toys, as tires or parts of a tire, saddles, balls and sports equipment, for example sports mats, or as floor covering and wall paneling, especially for sports surfaces, track and field surfaces, sports halls, children's playgrounds and pathways, shoes, in particular sport shoes and in general all applications for composite materials comprising a foam material and a rubber material.
- Foams especially particle foams, have long been known and have been widely described in the literature, e.g. in Ullmann's "Encyclopedia of Technical Chemistry", 4th edition, volume 20, p.
- Highly elastic, largely closed-cell foams such as particle foams made of thermoplastic elastomers, which e.g. are produced in an autoclave or by an extruder process show special dynamic properties, and in some cases also good rebound resilience.
- Hybrid foams made from particles of thermoplastic elastomers and system foam or binders are also known.
- the properties of the foam can also be influenced by post-treatment of the foam, such as tempering.
- Foamed pellets which are also referred to as particle foams (or bead foams, particle foam), and molded articles made therefrom, based on thermoplastic polyurethane or other elastomers, are known (for example WO 94/20568A1 , WO 2007/082838 A1 , WO2017/030835 A1 , WO 2013/153190 A1 , WO2010/010010 A1 ) and can be used in many different ways.
- a foamed pellet or also a particle foam or bead foam in the sense of the present invention refers to a foam in the form of a particle, the average length of the particles preferably being in the range of from 1 to 14 mm, preferred 2-13 mm, most preferred 3-12 mm and in particular preferred 9.5 mm.
- length means the longest dimension.
- WO 2019/185687 A1 discloses a non-pneumatic tire comprising polyurethane matrix and expanded thermoplastic elastomer particles, wherein said non- pneumatic tire comprising 60 to 90 wt% of a polyurethane matrix and 10 to 40 wt% of expanded thermoplastic elastomer particles.
- the tires often show insufficient comfort in comparison to pneumatic tires, have a significant higher density than a semi-compact material, show insufficient adhesion between an outer rubber material of the tire and an inlay / insert, which leads to reduction in stability, lifetime and an increase of rolling resistance in comparison to pneumatic tires.
- foams can be used.
- lifetime and stability of the foam material is usually influenced by the extend of heat generation during use. This is for example the case for non-pneumatic tires.
- non-pneumatic tires an inner foam material is surrounded by an outer rubber material, and during operation heat is generated due to friction between the different components.
- the invention therefore relates to a process for the manufacturing of a composite material by fusing a rubber material (component C1) and a foam material (component C2), wherein the process comprises the steps of

- the present invention is directed to a use of a composite material as molded body, as insert for non-pneumatic tires, in furniture, seating, as cushioning, for car wheels or parts of car wheels, toys, animal toys, as tires or parts of a tire, saddles, balls and sports equipment, for example sports mats, or as floor covering and wall paneling, especially for sports surfaces, track and field surfaces, sports halls, children's playgrounds and pathways.
- the present invention is directed to a non-pneumatic tire comprising the composite material, wherein the composite material is a molded body, which is surrounded at least partwise by an outer tire and wherein the outer tire and the molded body are fused, glued or pressed together.
- Chain extender 1 ,4-butanediol
- Polyol poly tetrahydrofuran (PolyTHF) 1000
- additives such as catalysts, stabilizers and/or antioxidants can be added in particular without deviation of the target result.
- thermoplastic polyurethane TPU
- TPU 1 The production of the following example TPU 1 was carried out in a twin-screw extruder, ZSK58 MC, of the company Coperion with a process length of 48D (12 housings).
- the discharge of the melt (polymer melt) from the extruder was carried out by means of a gear pump.
- the polymer melt was processed into granules by means of underwater granulation, which were dried continuously in a heating vortex bed, at 40 - 90°C.
- the polyol, the chain extender and the diisocyanate as well as a catalyst were dosed into the first zone.
- the addition of further additives, as described above, takes place in Zone 8.
- the housing temperatures range from 150 to 230 °C.
- the melting and underwater-granulation are carried out with melting temperatures of 210 - 230°C.
- the screw speed is between 180 and 240 rpm.
- the throughput ranges from 180 to 220 kg/h.
- thermoplastic polyurethane For the production of the expanded particles (foamed granules) from the thermoplastic polyurethane, a twin-screw extruder with a screw diameter of 44 mm and a ratio of length to diameter of 42 was used with subsequent melting pump, a start-up valve with screen changer, a perforated plate and an underwater granulation.
- the thermoplastic polyurethane was dried before processing at 80 °C for 3 h in order to obtain a residual moisture of less than 0.02 wt.%.
- thermoplastic polyurethane used is dosed via a gravimetric dosing device into the feed of the twin-screw extruder.
- the materials were melted and mixed. Subsequently, the propellants CO2 and N2 were added via one injector each. The remaining extruder length was used for homogeneous incorporation of the propellant into the polymer melt.
- the polymer/propellant mixture was pressed into a perforated plate (LP) by means of a gear pump (ZRP) via a start-up valve with screen changer (AV) into a perforated plate. Via the perforated plate individual strands are produced. These strands were conveyed to the pressurized cutting chamber of the underwater granulation (UWG) unit, in which the strands are cut into granules and further transported with the water while the granules expanded.
- UWG underwater granulation
- the total throughput of the extruder, polymers and propellants was 40 kg/h.
- the quantities of polymers and propellants used are listed in Table 1 .
- the polymers are always counted as 100 parts while the propellant is additionally counted, so that total compositions above 100 parts are obtained.
- the expanded granules After the separation of the expanded granules from the water by means of a centrifugal dryer, the expanded granules are dried at 60 °C for 3 h to remove the remaining surface water as well as possible moisture in the particle in order to not distort a further analysis of the particles.
- Solid phase is the TPU1 and the liquid phase is a mixture of water with calcium carbonate and a surface-active substance.
- the blowing agent / propellant butane
- the quantity is given in Table 3 and calculated in relation to the solid phase (TPU1).
- the pressure vessel was heated by stirring the solid/liquid phase at a temperature of 50 °C and then nitrogen was pressed into the pressure vessel up to a pressure of 8 bar. Subsequently, further heating was carried out until the desired impregnation temperature (I MT) was reached. When the impregnation temperature and the impregnation pressure were reached, the pressure vessel was relaxed via a valve after a given holding time.
- the exact manufacturing parameters of the manufacturing of foamed granules in an autoclave are listed in Table 3.
- the expanded granules were then fused on a molding machine from Kurtz ersa GmbH (Energy Foamer) to square plates with a side length of 200 mm and a thickness of 10 mm or 20 mm by covering with water vapor.
- the fusing parameters differ only in terms of cooling.
- the fusing parameters of the different materials were chosen in such a way that the plate side of the final molded part facing the moving side (MH) of the tool had as few collapsed eTPU particles as possible.
- steaming times in the range of 3 to 50 seconds were used for the respective steps. Through the movable side of the tool, a slit steaming was also carried out if necessary.
