- a tire which maintains high durability while further reducing noise during running.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a tire according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.
- the compounds described in this specification may be derived partially or entirely from fossil resources, from biological resources such as plant resources, or from recycled resources such as used tires, or may be derived from a mixture of two or more of fossil resources, biological resources, and recycled resources.
- the polyethylene terephthalate cord according to the first embodiment of the present invention is A polyethylene terephthalate cord for tires, comprising: At least two types of polyethylene terephthalate drawn yarns having different crystallinity, Of the two types of polyethylene terephthalate drawn yarns, the one with a lower crystallinity is designated PET drawn yarn A, and the one with a higher crystallinity is designated PET drawn yarn B,
- PET drawn yarn A has a crystallinity of less than 45.0%
- the PET drawn yarn B has a crystallinity of 40.0% or more
- the cord is characterized in that a constituent ratio of the PET drawn yarn A in the cord is 1% by mass or more and 99% by mass or less.
- the polyethylene terephthalate cord of the second embodiment of the present invention is A polyethylene terephthalate cord for tires, comprising: At least two types of polyethylene terephthalate drawn yarns having different terminal carboxyl group concentrations (CEG), Of the two types of polyethylene terephthalate drawn yarns, the one with a higher terminal carboxyl group concentration is designated PET drawn yarn A, and the one with a lower terminal carboxyl group concentration is designated PET drawn yarn B.
- the PET drawn yarn A has a crystallinity of less than 45.0%
- the PET drawn yarn B has a crystallinity of 40.0% or more
- the cord is characterized in that a constituent ratio of the PET drawn yarn A in the cord is 1% by mass or more and 99% by mass or less.
- the present invention relates to a polyethylene terephthalate cord (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a "PET cord”) using at least two kinds of PET drawn yarns differing in crystallinity or terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG), and one of the key features of the present invention is that the crystallinity of these at least two kinds of PET drawn yarns is optimized. Since the PET cord of the present invention has been optimized as described above, when used in a tire component, it is possible to reduce noise during running while maintaining tire durability.
- CEG terminal carboxyl group concentration
- PET cord of the present invention reduces noise during running while maintaining tire durability. That is, in fibers with low crystallinity, the presence of amorphous parts creates a damping effect, and noise reduction is expected, but the presence of amorphous parts can cause decomposition and destruction, resulting in insufficient durability. Therefore, by combining fibers with low and high crystallinity and optimizing the crystallinity values of each, it is believed that it is possible to reduce noise during running while maintaining tire durability.
- the PET cord of the present invention may be composed of only two types of PET drawn yarns, or may be composed of these two types of PET drawn yarns and an additional type of drawn yarn.
- the PET cord is composed of three or more types of PET drawn yarns, two types of PET drawn yarns with different crystallinity or terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG) can be arbitrarily selected and one can be regarded as drawn yarn A and the other as drawn yarn B, as appropriate.
- CEG terminal carboxyl group concentration
- the PET drawn yarn constituting the PET cord of the present invention may be made of recycled PET resin.
- Methods for recycling PET products include a chemical recycling method in which PET products such as PET bottles and clothing are depolymerized into monomers or intermediates and then polymerized again into a high-purity PET resin, and a mechanical recycling method in which the PET products are crushed, melted, and recycled.
- PET resins recycled by the mechanical recycling method are low in production cost and relatively easy to obtain.
- the PET drawn yarns using the mechanically recycled PET resins tend to have a lower crystallinity and/or a higher terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG) than other PET drawn yarns.
- CEG carboxyl group concentration
- the PET resin which is the constituent material of the PET drawn yarn, by paying attention to its origin and production conditions.
- the crystallinity of the PET drawn yarn can be adjusted, for example, by appropriately changing the conditions during production (drawing), such as the drawing speed, temperature, time, etc.
- the terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG) of the PET drawn yarn can be adjusted, for example, by appropriately changing the conditions during polymerization, such as the catalyst type, temperature, time, etc.
- the present invention can be expected to use a certain amount of recycled PET resin, particularly mechanically recycled PET resin, which can be advantageous from the standpoint of production costs and environmental protection.
- the terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG) of PET oriented yarn can be measured by the titration method described in Analytic. Chem., 26, 1614 (1954).
- PET drawn yarn A is the drawn yarn having a lower crystallinity or a higher terminal carboxyl group concentration among (at least) two kinds of PET drawn yarns constituting the PET cord.
- the PET drawn yarn A may be drawn, and the draw ratio is not particularly limited.
- the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn A must be less than 45.0%. Even if the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn A is relatively low or the terminal carboxyl group concentration is relatively high, if the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn A is 45.0% or more, the raw materials or manufacturing methods for the PET resin will be limited, the options will be fewer, and there is a risk of restrictions on the use of recycled PET. In addition, from the viewpoint of further reducing noise during tire running, it is preferable that the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn A is less than 40.0%. On the other hand, the lower limit of the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn A is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of suppressing excessive performance deterioration, it is preferable that it is 35.0% or more.

Also, part of the PET resin constituting PET stretched yarn A may be mechanically recycled PET resin, chemically recycled PET resin, or biomass PET resin (PET resin derived from biomass raw materials). In particular, it is preferable that part or all of the PET resin constituting PET stretched yarn A is mechanically recycled PET resin.
- the PET drawn yarn A preferably has a fineness of 200 to 3000 dtex. If the fineness of the PET drawn yarn A is 200 dtex or more, sufficient strength can be ensured, and if it is 3000 dtex or less, the effect of weight increase due to larger diameter can be sufficiently suppressed.
- the composition ratio of PET stretched yarn A is 1% by mass or more and 99% by mass or less. If the composition ratio is less than 1% by mass or more than 99% by mass, there is a risk that at least one of the tire durability and running noise may deteriorate. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of obtaining a better balance between tire durability and running noise, the composition ratio of PET stretched yarn A in the PET cord is preferably 25% by mass or more, 30% by mass or more, 40% by mass or more, or 45% by mass or more, and is preferably 75% by mass or less, 60% by mass or less, or 55% by mass or less.

- the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn B must be 40.0% or more. Even if the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn B is relatively high or the terminal carboxyl group concentration is relatively low, if the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn B is less than 40.0%, the durability of the tire may deteriorate. From the viewpoint of further improving the durability of the tire, the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn B is preferably 40.5% or more. On the other hand, the upper limit of the crystallinity of PET stretched yarn B is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of avoiding an excessive increase in manufacturing costs, it is preferably 45.0% or less.
- the terminal carboxyl group concentration (CEG) of PET stretched yarn B is 20 eq/ton or less.
- the lower limit of the CEG of PET stretched yarn B is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of productivity, it is preferable that it is 10 eq/ton or more.
- the PET resin constituting PET stretched yarn B may be non-recycled PET resin (petroleum-derived PET resin, PET resin derived from normal manufacturing methods), mechanically recycled PET resin, chemically recycled PET resin, or biomass PET resin. Also, part of the PET resin constituting PET stretched yarn B may be mechanically recycled PET resin, chemically recycled PET resin, or biomass PET resin. In particular, it is preferable that part or all of the PET resin constituting PET stretched yarn B is chemically recycled PET resin.
- the PET stretched yarn B preferably has a fineness of 200 to 3000 dtex. If the fineness of the PET stretched yarn B is 200 dtex or more, sufficient strength can be ensured, and if it is 3000 dtex or less, the effect of weight increase due to larger diameter can be sufficiently suppressed.
- the composition ratio of PET stretched yarn B is essentially required to be 99% by mass or less, and is preferably 1% by mass or more. If the composition ratio is 1% by mass or more, a better balance between tire durability and running noise can be achieved.

- Such a dip treatment liquid can be, for example, a composition containing (a) a rubber latex having an unsaturated diene, and (b) a compound having a skeleton structure made of polyether and an amine functional group.
- such a dip treatment liquid can be, for example, a composition containing, in addition to the above-mentioned (a) component and the above-mentioned (b) component, (c) an aqueous compound having a (thermally dissociable blocked) isocyanate group, (d) a polyphenol, and (e) one or more compounds selected from a polyvalent metal salt.
- the density of the PET cords in the belt reinforcement layer is preferably 20 cords/50 mm or more and 70 cords/50 mm or less. In this case, it is possible to maintain the internal pressure and appropriately control the rigidity.
- the PET drawn yarn shown in Table 1 was prepared.
- Example 2 The above PET stretched yarns were twisted together in the composition ratio shown in Table 2 to produce a PET cord. Specifically, in Example 1, one PET stretched yarn 3 and one PET stretched yarn 4 were twisted together to produce a PET cord, and in the other examples, two PET stretched yarns of the same type were twisted together to produce a PET cord. The PET cord was then dipped in a dipping liquid. The total fineness of the PET cord after dipping is also shown in Table 2.
- the breaking strength of the obtained PET cords was measured using a tensile tester.
- the PET cords other than Conventional Example 1 were covered with an elastomer, vulcanized at 160°C for 90 minutes, and then the breaking strength after thermal degradation was measured using a tensile tester in the same manner as above. Note that, since the PET cord of Conventional Example 1 is made of drawn yarn with the same physical properties as the PET cord of Conventional Example 2, calculations were made based on the measured values of Conventional Example 2. These results are also shown in Table 2.
- the PET cords of Conventional Example 1, Comparative Example 1, and Example 1 were covered with an elastomer to prepare belt reinforcing layers 70A and 70B (see FIG. 1), and a tire (size 195/65R15) having the structure shown in FIG. 1 was manufactured.
- the cord placement density in the belt reinforcing layer was as shown in Table 2.
- the following evaluations were carried out using the produced tires. The results are shown in Table 2.
- the tires were stored for 28 days at 70° C. under an air pressure of 350 kPa. After storage, the tires were subjected to a drum test at a speed of 120 km/h under an air pressure of 220 kPa and a load of 525 kg. For each example, if the tire was able to run 10,000 km without failure, it was evaluated as "completed,” and if not, it was evaluated as "not completed.”
- a polyethylene terephthalate cord which, when used in a tire component, can further reduce noise during running while maintaining high tire durability.
- a tire which maintains high durability while further reducing noise during running.
