## Background
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
The present application is U.S. national stage of international application PCT/EP2007/054547, which had an international filing date of May 10, 2007, and which was published in German under PCT Article 21(2) on Dec. 13, 2007. The international application claims priority to German application DE 10 2006 027 235, filed on Jun. 9, 2006. These prior applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
The invention relates to rubber mixtures, their production, and their use.
AT 379 404 B discloses vulcanizable rubber mixtures based on halogen-free rubbers. The rubber mixtures comprise from 0.1 to 30% by weight of an organosilane of the formula Xp—CmH2m+1−p—SiR1(OR)3−n.
JP 2005232445 A2 moreover discloses rubber additives of the formula (R2—O)(3−m)—(R1)m—Si—R3—X.
JP 2002145890 A2 discloses the production of polysulfidic organo(alkylpolyethersilanes) composed of (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes.
A disadvantage of the known rubber mixtures, comprising organo(alkylpolyethersilanes), is poor tear strength.
It is an object of the invention to provide rubber mixtures which have improved tear strength after vulcanization.
The invention provides rubber mixtures which are characterized in that they comprise

The rubber mixtures of the invention can use (haloorganyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the general formula I or else mixtures composed of compounds of the general formula I.
The rubber mixtures of the invention can use, as (haloorganyl)alkylpolyethersilanes, hydrolyzates, oligomeric or polymeric siloxanes, and condensates of the compounds of the general formula I.
The (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the formula I can either be added in pure form to the mixing process or else added in a form absorbed onto an inert organic or inorganic carrier, or else a form prereacted with an organic or inorganic carrier. Preferred carrier materials can be precipitated or fumed silicas, waxes, thermoplastics, natural or synthetic silicates, natural or synthetic oxides, such as aluminum oxide, or carbon blacks. The (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the formula I can also be added to the mixing process in a form prereacted with the filler to be used.
Preferred waxes can be waxes with melting points, melting ranges, or softening ranges from 50° to 200° C., preferably from 70° to 180° C., particularly preferably from 90° to 150° C., very particularly preferably from 100° to 120° C.
The waxes used can be olefinic waxes.
The waxes used can contain saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon chains.
The waxes used can comprise polymers or oligomers, preferably emulsion SBR or/and solution SBR.
The waxes used can comprise long-chain alkanes or/and long-chain carboxylic acids.
The waxes used can comprise ethylene-vinyl acetate and/or polyvinyl alcohols.
The (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the formula I can be added to the mixing process in a form physically mixed with an organic substance, or physically mixed with an organic substance mixture.
The organic substance or the organic substance mixture can comprise polymers or oligomers.
Polymers or oligomers can be heteroatom-containing polymers or oligomers, for example ethylene-vinyl alcohol or/and polyvinyl alcohols.
Polymers or oligomers can be saturated or unsaturated elastomers, preferably emulsion SBR or/and solution SBR.
The melting point, melting range, or softening range of the mixture composed of (halo-organyl)alkylpolyether-silanes of the formula I and of organic substance or of an organic substance mixture can be from 50 to 200° C., preferably from 70 to 180° C., particularly preferably from 70 to 150° C., very particularly preferably from 70 to 130° C., extremely preferably from 90 to 110° C.
The following oxidic fillers can be used for the rubber mixtures of the invention:

    
    
        Amorphous silicas, prepared by way of example via precipitation of solutions of silicates (precipitated silicas) or flame hydrolysis of silicon halides (fumed silicas). The specific surface areas of the amorphous silicas can be from 5 to 1000 m2/g, preferably from 20 to 400 m2/g (BET surface area) and their primary particle sizes can be from 10 to 400 nm. The silicas can, if appropriate, also take the form of mixed oxides with other metal oxides, such as Al oxides, Mg oxides, Ca oxides, Ba oxides, Zn oxides and titanium oxides.
        Synthetic silicates, such as aluminum silicate or alkaline earth metal silicates, such as magnesium silicate or calcium silicate. The BET surface areas of the synthetic silicates can be from 20 to 400 m2/g and their primary particle diameters can be from 10 to 400 nm.
        Synthetic or natural aluminum oxides and synthetic or natural aluminum hydroxides.
        Natural silicates, such as kaolin and other naturally occurring silicas.
        Glass fiber and glass fiber products (mats, strands) or glass microbeads.
    
    


It may be preferable to use amorphous silicas prepared via precipitation of solutions of silicates (precipitated silicas) with BET surface areas of from 20 to 400 m2/g. The amounts that can be used of the amorphous silicas are from 5 to 150 parts by weight, based in each case on 100 parts of rubber (phr).
The fillers mentioned can be used alone or in a mixture. In one particularly preferred embodiment, the rubber mixtures can comprise from 10 to 150 parts by weight of oxidic fillers, if appropriate together with from 0 to 100 parts by weight of carbon black, and also from 1 to 20 parts by weight of (haloorganyl)alkylpolyethersilane of the formula I, based in each case on 100 parts by weight of rubber.
Additional fillers that can be used are carbon blacks, such as flame black, furnace black, gas black, or thermal black, or synthetic or natural calcium carbonates, such as precipitated calcium carbonate. The BET surface area of the carbon blacks can be from 20 to 200 m2/g. The carbon blacks can, if appropriate, also contain heteroatoms, such as Si.
Suitable materials for preparation of the inventive rubber mixtures are not only natural rubber but also synthetic rubbers. Preferred synthetic rubbers are described by way of example in W. Hofmann, Kautschuktechnologie [Rubber technology], Genter Verlag, Stuttgart 1980. They comprise, inter alia

    
    
        polybutadiene (BR);
        polyisoprene (IR);
        styrene-butadiene copolymers (SBR), such as emulsion SBR (E-SBR) or solution SBR (S-SBR). The styrene-butadiene copolymers can have styrene content of from 1 to 60% by weight, preferably from 2 to 50% by weight, particularly preferably from 10 to 40% by weight, very particularly preferably from 15 to 35% by weight;
        chloroprene (CR);
        isobutylene-isoprene copolymers (IIR);
        butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymers whose acrylonitrile contents are from 5 to 60% by weight, preferably from 10 to 50% by weight (NBR), particularly preferably from 10 to 45% by weight (NBR), very particularly preferably from 19 to 45% by weight (NBR);
        partially hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated NBR rubber (HNBR);
        ethylene-propylene-diene copolymers (EPDM);
        abovementioned rubbers which also have functional groups, e.g. carboxy groups, silanol groups or epoxy groups, e.g. epoxidized NR, carboxy-functionalized NBR or silanol- (—SiOH) or silyl-alkoxy-functionalized (—Si—OR) SBR;

or a mixture of these rubbers. Anionically polymerized S-SBR rubbers (solution SBR) whose glass transition temperature is above −50° C. and their mixtures with diene rubbers may be of particular interest for production of car tire treads.

    
    


The inventive rubber mixtures can comprise other rubber auxiliaries, such as reaction accelerators, antioxidants, heat stabilizers, light stabilizers, anti-ozonants, processing aids, plasticizers, tackifiers, blowing agents, dyes, pigments, waxes, extenders, organic acids, retarders, metal oxides, and also activators, such as triethanolamine or hexanetriol.
Other rubber auxiliaries can be:

    polyethylene glycol or/and polypropylene glycol or/and polybutylene glycol with molar masses from 50 to 50 000 g/mol, preferably from 50 to 20 000 g/mol, particularly preferably from 200 to 10 000 g/mol, very particularly preferably from 400 to 6000 g/mol, extremely preferably from 500 to 3000 g/mol,
    hydrocarbon-terminated polyethylene glycol AlkI-O—(CH2—CH2—O)y, —H or AlkI- (CH2—CH2—O)yI-AlkI,
    hydrocarbon-terminated polypropylene glycol AlkI-O—(CH2—CH(CH3)—O)yI—H or Alk-O—(CH2—CH(CH3)—O)yI-AlkI,
    hydrocarbon-terminated polybutylene glycol AlkI, —O—(CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—O)y, —H, AlkI-O—(CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O)YI—H, AlkI-O—(CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—O)yI-AlkI or AlkI-O—(CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O)yI-AlkI,
    where the average of yI is from 2 to 25, preferably from 2 to 15, particularly preferably from 3 to 8 and from 10 to 14, very particularly preferably from 3 to 6 and from 10 to 13, and AlkI is a branched or unbranched, unsubstituted or substituted, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon having from 1 to 35, preferably from 4 to 25, particularly preferably from 6 to 20, very particularly preferably from 10 to 20, extremely preferably from 11 to 14, carbon atoms,
    neopentyl glycol HO—CH2—C(Me)2—CH2—OH, pentaerythritol C(CH2—OH)4 or trimethylolpropane CH3—CH2—C(CH2—OH)3 etherified with polyethylene glycol, etherified with polypropylene glycol, etherified with polybutylene glycol, or etherified with a mixture thereof, where the number of repeat units of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or/and butylene glycol in the etherified polyalcohols can be from 2 to 100, preferably from 2 to 50, particularly preferably from 3 to 30, very particularly preferably from 3 to 15.


To calculate the average of yI, the analytically determinable amount of polyalkylene glycol units can be divided by the analytically determinable amount of -AlkI [(amount of polyalkylene glycol units)/(amount of -AlkI)]. By way of example, 1H and 13C nuclear resonance spectroscopy can be used to determine the amounts.
The rubber mixture of the invention can comprise further silanes.

It can be desirable for reasons of economics or of rubber technology to minimize the necessary or desirable proportion of further silanes.
The amounts used of the rubber auxiliaries can be known amounts, depending inter alia on the intended purpose. As a function of the processing aid used, conventional amounts can be amounts of from 0.001 to 50% by weight, preferably from 0.001 to 30% by weight, particularly preferably from 0.01 to 30% by weight, very particularly preferably from 0.1 to 30% by weight, based on rubber (phr).
The rubber mixtures of the invention can be sulfur-vulcanizable rubber mixtures.
The rubber mixtures of the invention can be peroxidically crosslinkable rubber mixtures.
Crosslinking agents that can be used are sulfur or sulfur-donor substances. The amounts used of sulfur can be from 0.1 to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 5% by weight, based on rubber.
The (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the formula I can be used as adhesion promoter between inorganic materials (e.g. glass beads, glass splinters, glass surfaces, glass fibers, metals, oxidic fillers, silicas) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers), or as crosslinking agent and surface modifier for oxidic surfaces. The (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilanes of the formula I can be used as coupling reagents in filled rubber mixtures, an example being tire treads.
It can be desirable for reasons of economics or of rubber technology to minimize the necessary or desirable proportion of rubber auxiliaries.
The rubber mixtures of the invention can comprise further vulcanization accelerators.
Amounts that can be used of the vulcanization accelerators are from 0.1 to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 5% by weight, based on the rubber used.
The rubber mixtures of the invention can comprise

    (D) a thiuram sulfide accelerator and/or carbamate accelerator, and/or the corresponding zinc salts,
    (E) if appropriate, a nitrogen-containing coactivator,
    (F) if appropriate, further rubber auxiliaries, and
    (G) if appropriate, further accelerators.


The invention further provides a process for the production of the rubber mixtures of the invention, which is characterized in that the process comprises mixing at least one rubber, at least one oxidic filler, and at least one (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilane of the formula (I).
The process of the invention can be carried out at temperatures >25° C.
The process of the invention can be carried out in the temperature range from 80° C. to 200° C., preferably from 100° C. to 180° C., particularly preferably from 110° C. to 160° C.
The process can be carried out continuously or batchwise.
The addition of the (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilane of the general formula (I), and also the addition of the fillers, can take place when the temperatures of the composition are from 100 to 200° C. However, it can also take place at lower temperatures of from 40 to 100° C., e.g. together with further rubber auxiliaries.
The blending of the rubbers with the filler and, if appropriate, with rubber auxiliaries and with the (halo-organyl)alkylpolyethersilane of the general formula (I) can take place in or on conventional mixing assemblies, such as rolls, internal mixers, and mixing extruders. These rubber mixtures can usually be produced in internal mixers, beginning with one or more successive thermomechanical mixing stages in which the rubbers, the filler, the (halo-organyl)alkylpolyether-silane of the general formula (I) and the rubber auxiliaries are incorporated by mixing at from 100 to 170° C. The sequence of addition and the juncture of addition of the individual components here can have a decisive effect on the resultant properties of the mixture. The crosslinking chemicals can usually be admixed in an internal mixer or on a roll at from 40 to 110° C. with the rubber mixture thus obtained, and processed to give what is known as a crude mixture for the subsequent steps of the process, for example shaping and vulcanization.
Vulcanization of the rubber mixtures of the invention can take place at temperatures of from 80 to 200° C., preferably from 130 to 180° C., if appropriate under a pressure of from 10 to 200 bar.
The rubber mixtures of the invention can be used for the production of moldings, for example for the production of tires, including pneumatic tires, tire treads, cable sheathing, hoses, drive belts, conveyor belts, roll coverings, shoe soles, and sealing elements, e.g. ring seals, and damping elements.
The invention further provides moldings obtainable from the rubber mixture of the invention, via vulcanization.
The rubber mixtures of the invention have the advantage of high tear strength.
