In vulcanizates of NR/SBR blending compounds, the physical properties decrease as the contents of SBR increase for the most part. but the abrasives showed reverse performance. However, since these conditions enough satisfy the requirements of tread, carcass and sidewall of tire, we found it was possible to take use of the quantity of SBR contained high on tire manufacturing.

SBR과 타이어의 속도론적 해석을 수행하기 위하여 질소기류 상태에서 각각 5, 10, 15, $20^{\circ}C/min$으로 열분석을 수행하여 Kissinger, Friedman, Ozawa 방법에 의해 활성화 에너지와 반응차수를 계산하였다. Friedman 방법에 의해 산출된 활성화 에너지는 SBR은 247.53kJ/mol, 타이어는 230.00kJ/mol이었으며, Ozawa 방법에 의한 활성화 에너지는 SBR이 254.80kJ/mol, 타이어가 215.76kJ/mol로 나타났다. 열분석을 수행한 결과 미분법인 Friedman 방법과 적분법인 Ozawa 방법이 SBR과 타이어의 속도론적 해석에 더 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 열분해 공정을 이용하여 SBR과 타이어를 분해한 결과 온도가 증가함에 따라 액상 생성물의 수율이 전반적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 가열속도가 $20^{\circ}C/min$일 때 SBR의 경우 $700^{\circ}C$에서 액상 생성물의 수율이 86%로 최대 값을 보였으며, 타이어의 경우 $700^{\circ}C$에서 액상 생성물의 수율이 55%로 최대값을 보였다. 이로부터 SBR과 타이어 분해공정에서 열분해 온도와 가열속도가 중요한 변수로 작용함을 알 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 $70^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C/min$을 최적분해 조건으로 제시할 수 있다.

Solution styrene-butadiene rubber (S-SBR) is used to improve the wet grip and rolling resistance properties of tire treads. As blending of SBRs can improve the physical properties of tire treads, we investigated the effects of SBR type and blending ratio on the physical properties. Twelve SBR/SBR biblend composites were prepared using four SBRs with different microstructures. The glass transition temperature (T_g), tanδ at 0℃ (wet grip predictor), and tanδ at 60℃ (rolling resistance predictor) were obtained from dynamic mechanical analysis, and were compared to the expected values obtained from the results of single SBR samples. Most of the SBR/SBR biblend composites exhibited crosslink densities lower than the expected values. The tanδ values at 0℃ and 60℃ of the SBR/SBR blend composites deviated from the expected values, with many of the deviations being disadvantageous. Of the twelve composites, six samples had higher 0℃ tanδ values than the corresponding expected values, and four exhibited superior wet grip properties to those of the SBR single samples. In addition, two of the twelve samples exhibited improved rolling resistance properties as compared with the single SBR samples. Finally, four samples exhibited lower T_g values than expected, and the T_g of one composite was lower than those of the single SBR samples.

열분해 공정을 이용하여 원료고무(SBR)와 타이어를 분해한 결과 온도가 증가함에 따라 액상 생성물의 수율이 전반적으로 증가하고 기상 생성물은 수율은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. SBR의 경우 $700^{\circ}C$에서 액상 생성물의 수율이 86%로 최대값을 보인후 $700^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 액상 생성물의 수율이 약간 감소하였으며, 타이어의 경우 $700^{\circ}C$에서 액상 생성물의 수율이 55%로 최대값을 보였다. 가열 속도에 따른 SBR과 타이어의 생성물 수율 변화는 가열 속도가 증가할수록 액상 생성물의 수율은 증가하고 기상 생성물의 수율은 감소하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. SBR과 타이어의 열분해 후 생성된 액상 생성물의 수평균 분자량은 740~2486, 740~1719로 나타났으며, 39~40 kJ/g의 발열량을 나타내었다. 또한 GC-MSD로 분석한 결과 50 여 가지의 유기화합물이 생성되는 것으로 나타났으며 대부분 방향족 화합물이 많이 형성되는 것을 확인하였다. 분해 잔류물의 SEM 분석 결과 열분해 온도가 증가함에 따라 입자의 크기는 감소하며 입자가 균일함을 알 수 있었으며, BET로 표면적을 측정한 결과 열분해 온도가 증가함에 따라 비표면적은 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 $47{\sim}63m^2/g$의 표면적을 나타내었다. 따라서 열분해 공정의 경우 열분해 온도는 $700^{\circ}C$ 가열 속도는 높게 조업하는 것이 바람직하며 비활성 기체를 계속 흘려주는 것이 액상 생성물의 수율을 높일 수 있으며, 액상 생성물은 연료로써 사용이 가능하고 잔류물은 카본 블랙이나 활성탄으로 사용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Silica-styrene butadiene rubber (Silica-SBR) compounds have been used in the preparation of tire treads. The silica dispersibility of silica-SBR compounds is related to the processability, mechanical properties, and wear resistance of tires. Recently, in order to improve the silica dispersibility of the silica-SBR compounds, the wet masterbatch (WMB) process was introduced, which is a method of mixing rubber in the water phase. We aimed to improve the silica dispersibility of the silica-SBR compounds by preparing a silica dispersant applicable to the WMB process. For this purpose, cellulose, 2-hydroxyethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate were employed as a silica dispersant. The silica dispersibility of the compounds was measured by a moving die rheometer. Improvement in the processability of silica-SBR compounds was evaluated by the Mooney viscometer. The wear resistance of silica-SBR compounds using a cellulose dispersant was improved by up to 29%.

본 연구는 MWCNT로 보강된 SBR 나노복합재료를 컴파운딩법(compounding)으로 제조하여 산 처리된 MWCNT와 커플링제 상호간의 물리적 화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 황산과 질산으로 산화된 MWCNT는 FT-IR 분석 결과 -COOH로 기능화됨을 확인하였고, Raman 분석 결과 표면의 defect 존재와 disorder됨을 확인하였다. 또한, 제조된 SBR 복합재료의 가황 특성, 전기적 열적 특성 및 기계적 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 그 결과 산 처리된 MWCNT와 커플링제와의 상호 결합력으로 인해 기계적 물성은 상대적으로 증가하였으나, 전기적 열적 특성은 MWCNT의 defects나 disorder의 형성과 chopping으로 인해 감소됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Commercial rubber(IR, NR, BR), SBR, and tire were degraded by thermal degradation process. The oil yield of rubbers and tire ranges about 37~86%, it was increased with increase of operation temperature in pyrolysis. And the yield of pyrolytic oil was increased with increase of heating rate. The maximum oil yields of IR, NR, BR, SBR, and tire were 80, 73, 83, 86 and 55% each at $700^{\circ}C$ with a heating rate of $20^{\circ}C$/min, respectively. The pyrolytic oil components were consisted of about 50 aromatic compounds. The calorific value of purolytic oil of commercial rubber, SBR, and tire was measured by calorimeter, it was 39~40 kJ/g. The BET surface area of pyroblack was $47~63m^2/g$. The optimum condition of pyrolysis was operating temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ with heating rate of $20^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the pyrolytic oil and pyroblack are possible to alternative fuel and carbon black.

The abrasion resistances of silica-filled styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) compounds prepared with and without dicyclopentadiene resin (SBR-R and SBR-0, respectively) were studied using four different abrasion testers, namely cut and chip (CC), Lambourn, DIN, and laboratory abrasion tester (LAT100). The effect of the resin on the abrasion behavior was elucidated by analyzing the morphologies and size distributions of wear particles. All the wear particles had rough surfaces, but those obtained in the Lambourn abrasion test exhibited relatively smooth surfaces. The size distributions of the wear particles showed different trends depending on the abrasion tester and the rubber compound; however, most of the wear particles were larger than 1000 ㎛. The SBR-R sample showed a wide range of particle sizes (from 63 ㎛) in the LAT100 abrasion test and majority of the wear particles were 500-1000 ㎛, whereas the SBR-0 sample had the most distribution of larger than 1000 ㎛. The abrasion rates of SBR-0 sample were lower than those of the SBR-R sample for the CC and LAT100 abrasion tests, but the Lambourn abrasion test result showed the opposite trend. Addition of the resin influenced the abrasion behavior, however the effect varied depending on the type of abrasion tests.

The rapid development of the automobile industry is an important factor that led to the dramatic development of synthetic rubber. The tread part of tire that comes in direct contact with the road surface is related to the service life of the tire. Rubber compounds used in tire treads are often blended with SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber) and BR (butadiene rubber) to satisfy physical property requirements. However, when two or more kinds of rubber are blended, phase separation and silica dispersion problems may occur due to non-uniform mixing of the rubber. Therefore, in this study, we synthesized an SBR copolymer with the same composition as that of a typical SBR/BR blend compound by controlling butadiene content during ESBR (emulsion styrene-butadiene rubber) synthesis. Subsequently, silica filled compounds were manufactured using the synthesized ESBR, and their mechanical properties, dynamic viscoelasticity, and crosslinking density were compared with those of the SBR/BR blended compound. When the content of butadiene was increased in the silica filled compound, the cure rate accelerated due to an increased number of allylic positions, which typically exhibit higher reactivity. However, the T-2 compound with increased butadiene content by synthesis less likely to show an increase in crosslink density due to poor silica dispersion. In addition, the T-3 compound containing high cis BR content showed high crosslink density due to its monosulfide crosslinking structure. Because of the phase separation, SBR/BR blend compounds were easily broken and showed similar $M_{100%}$ and $M_{300%}$ values as those of other compounds despite their high crosslink density. However, the developed blend showed excellent abrasion resistance due to the high cis-1,4 butadiene content and low rolling resistance due to the high crosslink density.
