Mvi=MBD×Vi/100
と表すことができる。
また、測定用サンプルBを用いて、25℃で逆ゲート付きデカップリング法を適用した13C-NMR測定を行う。この13C-NMR測定から得られた、1,2-ビニル基の=CH2構造に由来する114ppm付近のシグナルの強度比を1とした際のカルボキシ基の(C=O)構造に由来する180ppm付近のシグナル又はジチオカルボキシ基の(C=S)構造に由来する240ppm付近のシグナルの強度比をCCOOHとする。ここで、特定構造導入数(NCOOH)をポリマー鎖1本あたりのカルボキシ基の数であると定義すると、NCOOHは下記数式(I)で表される。
NCOOH=CCOOH×Mvi …(I)
このようにして、1H-NMR測定及び逆ゲート付きデカップリング法を適用した13C-NMR測定により得られたピーク強度から、ポリマー鎖当たりの特定構造導入数を算出することができる。
1H-NMR測定に使用する重クロロホルム溶媒における、7.26ppm付近のクロロホルムに由来するピークの積分強度HCHCl3及び内部標準であるテトラメチルシランの由来する0ppm付近のピーク強度HTMSの比rcalibを予め算出しておく。
rcalib=HCHCl3/HTMS …(II)
まず、測定用サンプルAを用いて、特定構造導入前の共役ジエン系重合体の1H-NMR測定を行う。この1H-NMR測定によって得られた7.7ppm~6.1ppmのピークの積分強度をHst1+CHCl3、6.0ppm~4.0ppmのピークの積分強度をHBD1、及び内部標準物質として含まれるテトラメチルシランに由来する0ppm付近のピークの積分強度をHTMS1とそれぞれ表す。Hst1+CHCl3は、共役ジエン系重合体中の芳香族化合物に由来するピークの積分強度と、クロロホルムに由来するピークの積分強度とを足し合わせた値である。したがって、Hst1+CHCl3からクロロホルムに由来するピーク強度を差し引くことにより、共役ジエン系重合体中の芳香族化合物に由来するピークのみの積分強度Hst1を算出できる。
測定に使用する重クロロホルム溶媒中のクロロホルムと、内部標準物質であるテトラメチルシランとの比を一定とすることにより、Hst1は下記数式(III)で表される。
Hst1=Hst1+CHCl3-HTMS1×rcalib …(III)
ここで、r1を下式(IV)のとおり定義する。
r1=Hst1/HBD1 …(IV)
HAr=HAr+CHCl3-HTMS2×rcalib …(V)
となる。ここで、r2を下記数式(VI)のとおり定義する。
r2=HAr/HBD2 …(VI)
HArは、変性共役ジエン系重合体主鎖の芳香族化合物に由来するピークの積分強度Hst2と、特定構造中の芳香族化合物に由来するピークの積分強度Hspとを足し合わせた値であることから、
HAr=Hst2+Hsp …(VII)
により表される。数式(VII)を数式(VI)に代入すると、
r2=(Hst2+Hsp)/HBD2 …(VIII)
となる。ここで、共役ジエン系重合体主鎖を構成する芳香族化合物と共役ジエン化合物とのモル比は特定構造の導入前後において変化しないため、
Hst1/HBD1=Hst2/HBD2 …(IX)
と表される。数式(IV)及び数式(IX)を数式(VIII)に代入すると、
r2=r1+(Hsp/HBD2)となる。これをHspについて解くことにより下記数式(X)を導くことができる。
Hsp=(r2-r1)×HBD2 …(X)
Nsp={Hsp/(化合物D又は化合物Eの1分子あたりの芳香族プロトン数)}/(1/6×HTBS+1/3×HMe) …(XI)
NCOOHを用いると、平均連鎖長Lavは、カルボキシ基当たりの特定構造に由来する芳香族化合物の量と換言できる。したがって、平均連鎖長Lavは下記数式(XII)で表されることになる。
Lav=Nsp/NCOOH …(XII)
数式(XII)に数式(I)~数式(VI)、数式(X)及び数式(XI)を代入することにより、1H-NMR測定及び逆ゲート付きデカップリング法を適用した13C-NMR測定により得られたピークの積分強度から平均連鎖長Lavを算出することができる。
[実施例2-1~実施例2-13、比較例2-1及び比較例2-2]
上記で製造した(変性)共役ジエン系重合体A-1、A-2、A-4~A-14、B-1、B-2をそれぞれ用いて、表5に示す配合処方により各成分を配合し、これを混練りすることによってゴム組成物を製造した。混練りは以下の方法で行った。温度制御装置を付属したプラストミル(東洋精機社製、内容量:250mL)を使用し、まず1段目の混練りとして、充填率72%、回転数60rpmの条件で、(変性)共役ジエン系重合体(A-1、A-2、A-4~A-14、B-1、B-2)、シリカ、シランカップリング剤、ステアリン酸、酸化亜鉛及び老化防止剤を配合して混練りした。次いで、2段目の混練りとして、上記で得た配合物を室温まで冷却後、加硫促進剤及び硫黄を配合し、混練りした。得られたゴム組成物を成型し、160℃で所定時間、加硫プレスにて加硫して、架橋ゴム(加硫ゴム)を得た。また、以下のようにして強度及び耐摩耗性を評価した。結果を表5に示す。なお、比較例1-3により得られた変性共役ジエン系重合体(A-3)については、重合体溶液が流動性を失う程度までゲル化したため、架橋ゴムの強度及び耐摩耗性の評価を行わなかった。
