Abstract

The invention provides mercaptosilane-carbon black blends comprising at least 20 wt. % of mercaptosilanes of the general formula I

and carbon black, the mercaptosilane-carbon black blend having an iron content of <9 ppm.

They are produced by mixing the mercaptosilanes of the general formula I with the carbon black.
They can be used in rubber mixtures.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. Mercaptosilane-carbon black blend, comprising at least 20 wt. % of mercaptosilane of the general formula I

based on the mercaptosilane-carbon black blend,
wherein R 1 is an alkyl polyether group —O—(R 5 —O) m —R 6 ,
with R 5 , identical or different at each occurrence, being a branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic divalent C1-C30 hydrocarbon group, m being on average 1 to 30, and R 6 consisting of at least 1 C atom and being an unsubstituted or substituted, branched or unbranched monovalent alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or aralkyl group,
R 2 is identical or different at each occurrence and is an R 1 , C1-C12 alkyl or R 7 O group, with R 7 being H, methyl, ethyl, propyl, C9-C30 branched or unbranched monovalent alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or aralkyl group or (R 8 ) 3 Si group, with R 8 being C1-C30 branched or unbranched alkyl or alkenyl group,
R 3 is a branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic, aromatic or mixed aliphatic/aromatic divalent C1-C30 hydrocarbon group, and
R 4 is H, CN or (C═O)—R 9 , with R 9 being a branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic, aromatic or mixed aliphatic/aromatic monovalent C1-C30 hydrocarbon group,
and carbon black,
wherein the mercaptosilane-carbon black blend has an iron content of <9 ppm.

2. Mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises a mixture of mercaptosilanes of the general formula I.

3. Mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 , wherein the mixture of mercaptosilanes of the general formula I comprises

and/or hydrolysis and/or condensation products of the aforementioned compounds.

4. Method for producing mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 , wherein at least 20 wt. % of mercaptosilane of the general formula I, based on the mercaptosilane-carbon black blend, is mixed with carbon black, the carbon black having an iron content of <9 ppm.

5. Rubber mixture wherein it comprises
(A) a rubber or mixture of rubbers,
(B) a filler and
(C) at least one mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 .

6. Method for producing the rubber mixture containing (a) a rubber or mixture of rubbers, (b) a filler and (c) at least one mercaptosilane-carbon black blend, comprising, mixing at least one mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 , the rubber or mixture of rubbers, the filler, optionally further rubber assistants.

7. A process for producing a shaped article comprising, providing a rubber mixture, which includes the mercaptosilane-carbon black blend according to claim 1 , and moulding the mixture to form the shaped article.

8. A process according to claim 7 , wherein the shaped article is pneumatic tyres, tyre treads, cable sheathing, hoses, drive belts, conveyor belts, roll coverings, tyres, footwear soles, sealing rings or damping elements.
