▎ 摘 要
NOVELTY - Manufacturing (M1) an elastic composite material, comprises: (a) mixing a carbon material with a silicon rubber material and uniformly dispersing the carbon material in the silicon rubber material to form a mixed compound, where the carbon material is present at 0.01-20 wt.% of the mixed compound, the carbon material comprises single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene and/or graphene oxide, and the carbon material is treated with a functionalization to obtain a substituent group comprising carboxy groups and/or hydroxy groups; (b) mixing the mixed compound with a bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide and a crosslinking agent to form a mixture, where the crosslinking agent is present at 0.5-2 wt.% of the mixture; and (c) heating the mixture to harden it to obtain the elastic composite material. USE - The methods are useful for manufacturing an elastic composite material (claimed) e.g. a tread rubber for tires. ADVANTAGE - The methods: provide the elastic composite material exhibiting improved life, improved durability, enhanced tensile strength and lengthened hardening time, thus enhancing the processability of the elastic composite material; and reduce the loss factor tan delta by adding a specific ratio of the carbon material and the bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide in the silicon rubber material, thus providing tires having relatively low rolling resistance and reduce oil consumption, and an energy-saving effect. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for manufacturing (M2) an elastic composite material, comprising (a1) mixing the carbon material with a rubber processing oil and uniformly dispersing the carbon material in the rubber processing oil to form a composite, where the carbon material is present at 0.005-10 wt.% of the composite, (b1) mixing the composite with a bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide and the crosslinking agent to form a mixture, where the crosslinking agent is present at 0.5-2 wt.% of the mixture, and step (c) as per se.
