  • Patent number: 11834569
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a rubber composition comprising 100 phr of one or more diene-based elastomers, 30 phr to 200 phr of a filler, and a benzoxazine which is the reaction of (i) a diphenol comprising two phenol groups and a bridge covalently connecting the two phenol groups, (ii) an aldehyde derivative, and (iii) an amine, wherein the bridge is connected to at least one of the phenol groups at a meta position of said at least one phenol group. The present invention is also directed to a rubber product comprising such a rubber composition and the use of such rubber products in tire components.

  • Publication number: 20230147484
    Abstract: Disulfide-containing benzoxazine monomers of formula I Also a process for synthesizing a disulfide-containing benzoxazine monomer of formula I comprises the following steps consisting of providing a mixture comprising an amino disulfide compound:H2N—R—NH2, wherein R is as defined for the monomer of formula I, an aldehyde derivative; phenolic derivatives, stirring the mixture under a temperature of from 50° C. to 130° C. for 1 h to 48 h, for obtaining the monomer of formula I; wherein the respective stoichiometry of the amino disulfide compound: aldehyde derivative:phenolic derivatives is 1:4: x1+x2, with x1+x2=2 and 0<x1;x2<2. Also a process for preparing a polybenzoxazine derivative vitrimer comprising a polymerization of the benzoxazine monomer at temperatures within the range of from 100° C. to 250° C. for 1 h to 24 h, for obtaining the polybenzoxazine derivatives vitrimer.

  • Publication number: 20220185802
    Abstract: Monomer(s) based on a 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine derivative. Alternatively, a composition comprising a mixture of the monomer(s) and of a second benzoxazine derivative selected from the group consisting of monofunctional amines bridged with diphenolic compounds, monophenolic compounds bridged with diamines and diamines bridged by diphenolic compounds, or a mixture thereof. These compounds are suited for the preparation of benzoxazine derivative heterogeneous polymers, for example having the shape of coatings or films, exhibiting enhanced anti-inflammatory and/or anti-oxidant properties. A material with a coated substrate with the heterogeneous polymer may be a part of implantable materials, such as implantable metallic apparatus such as a catheter, a metallic implant, or a metallic prosthesis, biologically compatible. These implantable materials may be safely used because they are preventing any inflammatory and/or oxidative reaction(s) from a host into which the coated substrate is grafted or implanted.
