Patent number: 11180639Abstract: The present invention provides a process for making a silica masterbatch that contains hydrophobated silica, solution-made rubber and emulsion-made rubber. Hydrophobated silica is mixed into a latex emulsion. Solution-rubber crumb in an aqueous suspension is mixed into the latex emulsion, which is coagulated, and a crumb is recovered, further homogenized, dried and baled to yield the silica masterbatch. A well-dispersed mixture of hydrophobated silica and emulsion-made rubber is added into a steam distillation step of a solution-rubber process from which a silica masterbatch is recovered. The emulsion-made rubber can be omitted to make a silica masterbatch of solution rubber and silica without emulsion rubber. The silica masterbatch has physical properties similar to those found in a comparable dry-mixed composition, but the silica masterbatch can be incorporated more easily and less expensively into tires and other rubber products than the dry-mixed composition.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2019Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Industrias Negromex, S.A. de C.V.Inventors: Christopher J. Hardiman, Xuan Fu, Robert J. Scribner, Julian Maldonado Valenzuela

Patent number: 11098169Abstract: A process is provided for making a silica masterbatch, that contains silica and solution-made rubber. The silica masterbatch has physical properties similar to those found in a comparable dry-mixed composition, but the silica masterbatch can be incorporated more easily and less expensively into tires and other rubber products than the dry-mixed composition. A process is also provided for making a masterbatch of silica, a solution-made rubber and an emulsion-made rubber.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2017Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Dynasol Elastómeros, S.A. de C.V.Inventors: Christopher J. Hardiman, Xuan Fu, Sergio Alberto Moctezuma Espiricueto, John Kounavis, Gabriela Elizabeth Blanco Reyes, Julian Maldonado Valenzuela, José María Islas Manzur, Gabriel Hernández Zamora
