Description

本発明は、重荷重タイヤ用のサイドトレッドゴム組成物に関し、更に詳細には、操縦安定性を確保しつつ、低燃費化を実現できる重荷重タイヤ用のサイドトレッドゴム組成物に関する。   The present invention relates to a side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires, and more particularly, to a side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires that can realize low fuel consumption while ensuring steering stability.

近年、長引く不況の影響で、トラック・バス等の重荷重タイヤにおいては、省メンテナンス、低燃費に関する要求が出てきた。これを解決しようとすると、耐摩耗性や操縦安定性が損なわれてしまう。これを改善する手段として、キャップトレッドについてのゴム組成物に関しては多くの特許があるが、サイドトレッドについては少なく、例えば、特許文献1には、天然ゴムと高シス含量のポリブタジエンゴムに対して特定のカーボンブラックとシリカおよびシランカップリング剤の併用によって、低燃費と耐摩耗性を両立させることが、また特許文献2には、天然ゴムもしくはポリイソプレンゴムと少量のシンジオタクチック1,2-ポリブタジエンを含む高シス含量のポリブタジエンゴムに対してカーボンブラックを配合することによって、耐外傷性および耐クラック性を改良することが、更に、特許文献3には、高シス-高ビニル含有ポリブタジエンとそれ以外のジエン系ゴムに対して所定量のカーボンブラックとシリカを配合することによって、スキッド抵抗性/発熱特性を維持しつつ、低燃費性と耐摩耗性の向上を図ることが提案されているが、いずれの先行技術も、耐摩耗性、低燃費化と操縦安定性を両立させるには至っていない。   In recent years, due to the prolonged recession, heavy duty tires such as trucks and buses have been demanded for maintenance-saving and low fuel consumption. If it is going to solve this, wear resistance and handling stability will be spoiled. As a means to improve this, there are many patents concerning the rubber composition for the cap tread, but there are few patents for the side tread. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a specific method for natural rubber and polybutadiene rubber having a high cis content. It is possible to achieve both low fuel consumption and wear resistance by combining the use of carbon black with silica and a silane coupling agent. Patent Document 2 discloses that natural rubber or polyisoprene rubber and a small amount of syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene. It is possible to improve the damage resistance and crack resistance by blending carbon black with a polybutadiene rubber having a high cis content, and further, Patent Document 3 discloses a polybutadiene having a high cis-high vinyl content and others. A certain amount of carbon black and silica are blended with the diene rubber Therefore, it has been proposed to improve fuel efficiency and wear resistance while maintaining skid resistance / heat generation characteristics. However, each of the prior arts has improved wear resistance, fuel efficiency and driving stability. It has not yet been achieved.

本発明では、操縦安定性を確保しつつ低燃費化が実現可能な重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物を提供することを目的とする。   An object of the present invention is to provide a side tread rubber composition for heavy-duty tires that can realize low fuel consumption while ensuring steering stability.

本発明によれば、(A)天然ゴムおよび/またはポリイソプレンゴム70〜30重量部と、高シス1,4−ポリブタジエンを主成分とするn−ヘキサン可溶分が95重量%以下で、かつシンジオタクティック−1,2−ポリブタジエンを主成分とするn−ヘキサン不溶分が5重量%以上であるポリブタジエンゴム30〜70重量部とからなるゴム100重量部、および(B)N2SA≧70m2/gのカーボンブラック20〜40重量部とシリカ10〜30重量部とを総量で30〜50重量部含み、かつ(C)加硫促進剤対硫黄の配合比が0.6〜0.9であるように配合してなる重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物が提供される。 According to the present invention, (A) 70-30 parts by weight of natural rubber and / or polyisoprene rubber, and n-hexane soluble component mainly composed of high cis 1,4-polybutadiene is 95% by weight or less, and 100 parts by weight of a rubber composed of 30 to 70 parts by weight of polybutadiene rubber having a main component of syndiotactic-1,2-polybutadiene and having an n-hexane insoluble content of 5% by weight or more, and (B) N 2 SA ≧ 70 m 2 / g of 20 to 40 parts by weight of carbon black and 10 to 30 parts by weight of silica are included in a total amount of 30 to 50 parts by weight, and (C) the ratio of vulcanization accelerator to sulfur is 0.6 to 0.9. There is provided a side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires formulated so as to be

本発明では、天然ゴムおよび/またはポリブタジエン系ゴムを用いた重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物において、当該ポリブタジエンゴムにVCR(天然ゴムや合成ゴムに最大径が10μm以下で、かつ平均径が1μm未満のシンジオタクチック−1,2−ポリブタジエン短繊維を配合したブタジエンゴムを含むゴム組成物)を選定し、フィラーを所定量のカーボンブラック/シリカブレンドとし、かつ架橋促進剤対硫黄の配合比を規定することによって、モジュラスを下げることなくtanδを下げることで操縦安定性を確保し、かつ低燃費化が図れることを見出したものである。   In the present invention, in a side tread rubber composition for heavy-duty tires using natural rubber and / or polybutadiene rubber, the polybutadiene rubber has a VCR (the maximum diameter is 10 μm or less and the average diameter is 1 μm for natural rubber or synthetic rubber). Rubber composition containing butadiene rubber blended with less than syndiotactic-1,2-polybutadiene short fibers), a predetermined amount of carbon black / silica blend, and a crosslinking accelerator to sulfur blend ratio. It has been found that, by defining, by reducing tan δ without lowering the modulus, it is possible to ensure steering stability and reduce fuel consumption.

本発明に係る重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物には、必須成分として、天然ゴムおよび/またはポリイソプレンゴム70〜30重量部と、高シス1,4−ポリブタジエンを主成分とするn−ヘキサン可溶分が95重量%以下、好ましくは90〜80重量%で、かつシンジオタクティック−1,2−ポリブタジエンを主成分とするn−ヘキサン不溶分が5重量%以上、好ましくは10〜20重量%であるポリブタジエンゴム30〜70重量部とからなるゴム分100重量部が含まれる。   The side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires according to the present invention includes, as essential components, 70 to 30 parts by weight of natural rubber and / or polyisoprene rubber and n-hexane containing high cis 1,4-polybutadiene as main components. Soluble content is 95% by weight or less, preferably 90 to 80% by weight, and n-hexane insoluble content mainly composed of syndiotactic-1,2-polybutadiene is 5% by weight or more, preferably 10 to 20% by weight. 100 parts by weight of rubber consisting of 30 to 70 parts by weight of polybutadiene rubber as a percentage.

前記高シス1,4−ポリブタジエンゴムに含まれる構成成分の「シンジオタクティック−1,2−ポリブタジエンを主成分とするn−ヘキサン不溶分」とは、実質的に、結晶性シンジオタクチック−1,2−ポリブタジエンからなる短繊維のことであり、これは、例えば、日本化学協会誌月報、1988年1月号の第23頁に記載される方法で製造することができる。本発明では、かかる短繊維を5重量%以上、好ましくは10〜20重量%含む高シス1,4−ポリブタジエンゴムを前記天然ゴムもしくはポリイソプレンゴムに配合する。この短繊維の配合量が少な過ぎると補強性が小さいので好ましくなく、逆に多過ぎると補強性が強すぎ、硬くなり過ぎるので好ましくない。また、当該短繊維を含む高シス1,4−ポリブタジエンゴムは、ゴム総量100重量部に対して、30〜70重量部が配合される。この配合量が30重量部未満では所期の効果が発揮されず、また70重量部を超えると物性低下が大きくなるので好ましくない。   The component “syndiotactic-1,2-polybutadiene-based n-hexane insoluble component” contained in the high cis 1,4-polybutadiene rubber is substantially crystalline syndiotactic-1. , 2-polybutadiene, which can be produced by the method described in page 23 of the monthly report of the Japan Chemical Society, January 1988, for example. In the present invention, a high cis 1,4-polybutadiene rubber containing 5% by weight or more, preferably 10 to 20% by weight of such short fibers is blended with the natural rubber or polyisoprene rubber. If the amount of the short fiber is too small, the reinforcing property is small, which is not preferable. Conversely, if the amount is too large, the reinforcing property is too strong and too hard, which is not preferable. The high cis 1,4-polybutadiene rubber containing the short fibers is blended in an amount of 30 to 70 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the total rubber. If the blending amount is less than 30 parts by weight, the desired effect is not exhibited, and if it exceeds 70 parts by weight, the physical properties decrease greatly, which is not preferable.

本発明に係る重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物には、補強剤として、N2SA≧70m2/gのカーボンブラック20〜40重量部とシリカ10〜30重量部とを総量で30〜50重量部が配合される。これらの配合比率は、本発明の重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物が、シリカによる低燃費化の向上と、カーボンブラックによる硬度および操縦安定性の向上とをバランス良く達成するために必要である。前記カーボンブラックとしては、N2SAが70m2/g以上、好ましくは70〜100m2/gのものを用いることが好ましい。このN2SA値が低過ぎると引張り強さ、モジュラスなどが低下するので好ましくなく、逆に高過ぎると発熱量が大きくなるので好ましくない。 The side-tread rubber composition for heavy-duty tires according to the present invention includes, as a reinforcing agent, 20 to 40 parts by weight of carbon black with N 2 SA ≧ 70 m 2 / g and 10 to 30 parts by weight of silica in a total amount of 30 to 50. Part by weight is blended. These compounding ratios are necessary for the side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires of the present invention to achieve a good balance between the improvement in fuel economy due to silica and the improvement in hardness and steering stability due to carbon black. . As the carbon black, N 2 SA is 70m 2 / g or more, preferably it is preferred to use those 70~100m 2 / g. If this N 2 SA value is too low, the tensile strength, modulus and the like are lowered, which is not preferable. Conversely, if it is too high, the calorific value is increased, which is not preferable.

また、本発明に係る重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物では、加硫促進剤対硫黄の配合比(加硫促進剤/硫黄)が0.6〜0.9であることが必要である。当該配合比が0.6未満であると、モジュラスが低下し操縦安定性が確保できないので好ましくなく、逆に、0.9を超えると、伸びが低下して耐クラック性が悪化するので好ましくない。   Moreover, in the side tread rubber composition for heavy-duty tires according to the present invention, it is necessary that the blending ratio of vulcanization accelerator to sulfur (vulcanization accelerator / sulfur) is 0.6 to 0.9. If the blending ratio is less than 0.6, the modulus decreases and steering stability cannot be secured, which is not preferable. On the other hand, if it exceeds 0.9, the elongation decreases and crack resistance deteriorates, which is not preferable. .

本発明に係る重荷重タイヤ用サイドトレッドゴム組成物には、更に、各種オイル、老化防止剤、可塑剤などタイヤ用に一般的に配合されている各種配合剤を配合することができ、かかる配合物は一般的な方法で混練してゴム組成物とし、加硫することができる。これらの配合量も、本発明の目的に反しない限り、従来の一般的な量とすることができる。   The side tread rubber composition for heavy duty tires according to the present invention can further contain various compounding agents that are generally compounded for tires, such as various oils, anti-aging agents, and plasticizers. The product can be kneaded by a general method to obtain a rubber composition and vulcanized. These blending amounts can also be conventional general amounts as long as they do not contradict the purpose of the present invention.

以下、実施例および比較例にしたがって本発明を更に詳しく説明するが、本発明の技術的範囲をこれらの実施例に限定するものでないことは言うまでもない。   EXAMPLES Hereinafter, although this invention is demonstrated in more detail according to an Example and a comparative example, it cannot be overemphasized that the technical scope of this invention is not limited to these Examples.
