Patent number: 7288594Abstract: Provided is a process for producing a modified polymer, characterized by carrying out primary modification in which a hydrocarbyloxysilane compound is reacted with the active site of a polymer having an active site of an organic metal type in a molecule and then carrying out secondary modification in which the hydrocarbyloxysilane compound is further reacted therewith. This makes it possible to provide a modified polymer which enhances interactions with silica and carbon black when used for both of silica-blended and carbon black-blended rubber compositions and which elevates the fracture characteristic, the abrasion resistance and the low heat buildup property at the same time and can exhibit a good workability.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2002Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignee: Bridgestone CorporationInventors: Youichi Ozawa, Hajime Kondou, Noriko Endou

Patent number: 7247673Abstract: A coating for weatherstrips, windshield wipers, door seals, trunk seals, sunroof seals, windshield seals and the like. The coating comprises a water-based formula that provides high abrasion resistance and, optimally, also provides excellent weathering resistance. The abrasion resistance property is achieved via a combination of boron nitride and a high molecular weight silicone resin. Flexibility and weathering resistance are achieved via the addition of an acrylic/polyurethane/fluoropolymer resin binder blend and high UV-stabilizers and absorbers. Also provided is a method of manufacturing such coatings that comprises the steps of pre-dispersing the boron nitride in water and then combining the pre-dispersed boron nitride with the silicone resin and other ingredients.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2004Date of Patent: July 24, 2007Assignee: National Starch and Chemical Investment Holding CorporationInventors: Michael W. Pinter, Marufur Rahim

Patent number: 7241842Abstract: A conjugated diene rubber obtained by a process wherein active conjugated diene polymer chains each having an active metal at a polymer chain terminal, which have been obtained by polymerizing a conjugated diene monomer alone, or a conjugated diene monomer and an aromatic vinyl monomer with the aid of an organic active metal in an inert solvent, are allowed to react with a specific polyorganosiloxane capable of reacting with the active metal bonded to the polymer chain terminal. The conjugated diene rubber contains at least 5% by weight of a structure comprising at least three conjugated diene polymer chains bonded through a polyorganosiloxane. The conjugated diene rubber gives, when silica is incorporated therein, a rubber composition having good processability and giving a crosslinked rubber having reduced heat build-up, good wet grip performance and good abrasion resistance.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2003Date of Patent: July 10, 2007Assignee: Zeon CorporationInventors: Masao Nakamura, Masaaki Komatsu, Kouji Shouya, Kiyonori Umetsu, Takeshi Karato, Takahiko Fukahori

Patent number: 7193015Abstract: A method of using nanostructured chemicals as alloying agents for the reinforcement of flouropolymer microstructures, including polymer coils, domains, chains, and segments, at the molecular level. Because of their tailorable compatibility with fluorinated polymers, nanostructured chemicals can be readily and selectively incorporated into polymers by direct blending processes. Properties most favorably improved are time dependent mechanical and thermal properties such as heat distortion, creep, compression set, shrinkage, modulus, hardness and abrasion resistance. In addition to mechanical properties, other physical properties are favorably improved, including lower thermal conductivity, fire resistance, and improved oxygen permeability. These improved properties may be useful in a number of applications, including space-survivable materials and creep resistant seals and gaskets. Improved surface properties may be useful for applications such as anti-icing or non-wetting surfaces or as low friction surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2004Date of Patent: March 20, 2007Inventors: Joseph M.
