摘要:
Provided are pneumatic tires or studless winter tires that achieve a balanced improvement in fuel economy, reinforcing properties (flex crack growth resistance, abrasion resistance, tensile strength, adhesive strength, resistance to air permeation), grip performance (wet-grip performance, performance on snow and ice), handling stability, and heat aging resistance, and methods for producing such a pneumatic tire or studless winter tire. The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire including at least one component selected from the group consisting of a sidewall, a base tread, a bead apex, a clinch apex, an innerliner, and an undertread, each of which is formed from a rubber composition that contains a highly purified, modified natural rubber whose pH is adjusted to 2 to 7, and carbon black and/or a white filler.

An elastomer composition includes guayule rubber and a butadiene rubber, with at least about 5 phr guayule rubber based on 100 phr elastomer. The cured rubber has a higher coefficient of friction as compared to a cured rubber of the same formulation except using Hevea rubber rather than guayule rubber.

There is provided a defoaming agent having excellent defoaming persistence. The defoaming agent includes; hydrophobic silica having a hydrophobicity (MX) of 50 to 85, and a rate of change (MY/MX) of a hydrophobicity (MY) after immersion for 1 hour in a methanol/ion-exchange aqueous solution (volume ratio of 80/20) of sodium hydroxide with a pH of 13 at 25° C. to the hydrophobicity (MX) of 0.8 to 1.0; and at least one kind of liquid selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon oil, a non-reactive silicone oil and a polyoxyalkylene compound.
摘要:
An extractor suitable for using a solvent to separate a compound from a solid or semisolid substance containing the compound. The extractor includes a conveying assembly having an inclined conveyor for receiving the substance from a substance inlet and moving the substance through the solvent, an inclined upper surface associated with the first conveyor and an inclined lower surface associated with the first conveyor. The conveyor is configured to move the substance downward through the solvent along the upper surface toward a lower end of the conveyor and upward through the solvent along the lower surface toward an upper end of the conveyor.

Processes for recovering natural rubber from an aqueous natural rubber latex that contains extractables and one or more additives and that is essentially free of lignocellulosic plant material are described. Natural rubber in the latex is separated from the water. Preferably, the amount of non-rubber extractables in the natural rubber is reduced by one or more extraction steps yielding a dried natural rubber.

Improved methods and processes of extracting rubber from guayule and guayule-like fibrous plant material are disclosed herein in. The methods and process advantageously may include the step of drying the plant material to a moisture content of about 18% to about 36% to produce a feedstock, performing at least a first grind of the feedstock, optionally adding an antioxidant to the feedstock, combining an extraction solvent with the feedstock after the antioxidant has been added to the feedstock to form a miscella, and recovering rubber from the miscella.

Provided herein are organic solvent-based processes for the isolation of purified natural rubber from non-Hevea plants. The processes are particularly useful with plant matter that comprises at least 90% by weight roots sourced from Taraxacum kok-saghyz (Russian dandelion), Scorzonera tau-saghyz (Tau-Saghyz), Scorzonera uzbekistanica, and combinations thereof. Also provided herein is a purified non-Hevea rubber product containing 100 phr of rubber sourced from Taraxacum kok-saghyz, Scorzon-era tau-saghyz, Scorzonera uzbekistanica, and combinations thereof, having a specified purity level. Additionally provided are sulfur-vulcanizable rubber compounds and sulfur-vulcanized rubber compounds that incorporate 10-100 phr of purified non-Hevea rubber product sourced from Taraxacum kok-saghyz, Scorzonera tau-saghyz, Scorzonera uzbekistanica, and combinations thereof, having a specified purity level.
