Abstract: |
The formulation optimization of natural rubber(NR)/trans-1,4-poly(butadiene-co-isoprene)rubber(TBIR)(blend ratio 90/10) tread compound for high performance truck and bus radial tire was studied.The results showed that,compared with carbon black reinforced NR/TBIR vulcanizates,the hardness,modulus,tensile strength,tear strength and abrasion resistance of carbon black/silica(blend ratio 40/15)reinforced NR/TBIR vulcanizates decreased little,the wet-skid resistance kept unchanged,the rolling resistance and heat built-up decreased 20% and 17% respectively.On the basis of this formulation,the optimized formulation was obtained by increasing the addition level of accelerator and sulfur by 10%.Compared with carbon black reinforced NR tread compound,the optimized formulation tread compound showed excellent mechanical and dynamic properties,i.e.under the condition of almost unchanging tensile strength and wet-skid resistance,rolling resistance and heat built-up decreasd by 26% and 20% respectively,and abrasion resistance improvd by 5%.This optimized formulation was suitable for the tread compound of high performance truck and bus radial tire with low rolling resistance. |
