Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of rosin resin, in particular to a rosin resin, a tread rubber composition containing the rosin resin, and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of the automobile industry, especially the development of electric vehicles, the performance of tires becomes increasingly important to the safety of vehicles and the economy of energy. Among them, wet grip, rolling resistance and wear resistance are the three core indicators to measure the performance of tires, which are mutually restrictive.
[0003] Wet grip refers to the gripping ability of tires on wet roads, which directly affects the braking performance and handling stability of vehicles; rolling resistance is closely related to the energy consumption of vehicles; wear resistance determines the service life of tires and the emission of particulate matter.
[0004] At present, anti-wet skid resin is widely used in tires to improve wet grip, but it has some negative effects on rolling resistance and wear resistance, and it is difficult to improve and balance the three performances at the same time. Different resins used to improve the performance of tires in the prior art often have the problem that only one performance can be improved, and the other two performances cannot be improved and balanced.
[0005] For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2012-512290 discloses a rubber composition, which improves the wet grip performance and rolling resistance by adding an alpha-methylstyrene polymer resin as a plasticizer, but does not consider its wear resistance, which still needs to be further improved.
[0006] The prior art (Feng Kun-hao, Long Yan-ni, Chen Zhaohui, et al. Effect of modified rosin resin dosage on the performance of solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber / butadiene rubber blend [J]. Synthetic Rubber Industry, 2019, 42(3): 5.) discloses that the application of modified rosin resin in solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber (SSBR) / butadiene rubber (BR) blend can improve the wet skid resistance of SSBR / BR compound while basically not affecting its rolling resistance. However, the rosin resin used therein needs to be modified, and the rolling resistance is not improved, and the wear resistance needs to be further improved.
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a rosin resin that can effectively improve the wet grip of tires, while reducing the rolling resistance and enhancing the wear resistance.
