Benefits of technology

[0010] Under such a situation, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a modified conjugated diene polymer improved in quality stability in a conventional method, more enhanced in low heat buildup and reinforcing ability when used in a rubber composition, excellent in wear resistance, mechanical characteristics and processability, and improved in cold flow.

Problems solved by technology

In relation to recent social requests for energy saving, requirements for low fuel consumption of automobiles are becoming severer.
Further, the effect of modifying the rubber compositions into which silica or carbon black have been incorporated is not necessarily sufficient.
In particularly, for cis-1,4-polybutadiene, the effect of modifying the rubber into which carbon black has been incorporated is scarcely obtained in the actual situation.
Further, many of the conventional modification techniques can not sufficiently impart branches to main chains, so that cold flow becomes a serious obstacle in practical application.
Partial coupling to comply therewith necessarily poses the problem of decreasing the modification effect.

Production of Modified Polymer A

[0150] A 5-liter autoclave whose inside atmosphere was replaced with nitrogen gas was charged with 2.4 kg of cyclohexane and 300 g of 1,3-butadiene under nitrogen gas. A catalyst, which was previously prepared by reacting and maturing a cyclohexane solution of neodymium versatate (0.09 mmol), a toluene solution of methylalumoxane (hereinafter also referred to as “MAO”) (1.8 mmol), a toluene solution of diisobutylaluminum hydride (hereinafter also referred to as “DIBAH”) (5.0 mmol) and diethylaluminum chloride (0.18 mmol), and 1,3-butadiene (4.5 mmol) as catalyst components at 50° C. for 30 minutes, was added thereto, and polymerization was conducted at 80° C. for 60 minutes. The reaction conversion of 1,3-butadiene was approximately 100%. Then, 200 g of the resulting polymer solution was taken out, and a methanol solution containing 1.5 g of 2,4-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol was added thereto to terminate polymerization. Thereafter, the solvent was removed ...

Production of Modified Polymer B

[0153] A modified polymer was produced by the same manner as with Example 1 with the exception that an aqueous solution adjusted to pH 12 with sodium hydroxide was substituted for the aqueous solution adjusted to pH 10. The conditions of the modification and condensation and the results of the reaction are shown in Table 1.

Production of Modified Polymer C

[0154] A modified polymer was produced by the same manner as with Example 1 with the exception that condensation reaction was conducted at 125° C. for 2 hours, together with desolvation. The conditions of the modification and condensation and the results of the reaction are shown in Table 1.
