  • Rubber and carbon black
    Patent number: 6646028
    Abstract: A process is provided for making a carbon-filled rubber having a uniform dispersion of nanometric-sized carbon black particles. Fluffy carbon black is received as a slurry in water and added to latex rubber before or during coagulation in an emulsion styrene butadiene rubber plant, or fluffy carbon black is similarly incorporated in rubber using a different type of rubber-manufacturing process. A uniform dispersion of smaller-than-usual carbon black particles in rubber is formed, which provides a black masterbatch rubber with superior mechanical and rheological properties. Ash and grit is removed from the fluffy carbon black slurry, which further improves the properties of the carbon-filled rubber by reducing defects in the rubber caused by the ash or grit.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 5, 2001
    Date of Patent: November 11, 2003
    Assignee: CID Centro de Investigacion y Desarrollo Tecnologico, S.A. de C.V.
