  • Rubber composition with dual fillers reinforcement
    Patent number: 11981816
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a rubber composition comprising at least rubber, and reinforcement materials, the reinforcement materials comprising silica particles and Kraft lignin nanoparticles, wherein the phr ratio between the silica particles and Kraft lignin nanoparticles is ranging between 3 and 20; wherein the Kraft lignin nanoparticles have an average diameter size ranging between 10 and 100 nm as determined by scanning electron microscopy; and wherein the Kraft lignin nanoparticles have a glass transition temperature of at least 150° C. as determined by Differential Scanning Calorimetry.

  • Injection system for solid particles
    Patent number: 8858123
    Abstract: An injection system for solid particles comprises a conveying hopper (11) located at an upstream location (1), a fluidizing device (21) for fluidizing the solid particles at the outlet of the conveying hopper (11) and forming a solid-gas flow, a pneumatic conveying line (15) for conveying the solid-gas flow from the fluidizing device (21) to a downstream location (2) and a static distribution device (17) with a plurality of injection lines (19), connected thereto. An upstream flow control system controls the mass flow rate in the pneumatic conveying line (15) at the upstream location (1) by controlling the opening of an upstream flow control valve (35) responsive to the solid material mass flow measured in the pneumatic conveying line (15) at the upstream location (1).
