The invention discloses high-strength anti-aging
styrene-butadiene rubber and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of
synthetic rubber modification. Porous reticular ZnO aggregated by 6.5 nm
ZnO nanoparticles is synthesized by a hydrothermal method by using a composite surfactant of PVP K30 and
polyvinyl alcohol 600 in a ratio of 1: 1, and the ZnO is not dried after synthesis so as to avoid aggregation; the preparation method comprises the following steps: carrying out
surface modification with a
silane coupling agent KH560, carrying out segmented
temperature control mixing with
styrene-butadiene rubber,
carbon black N330 and other assistants, and carrying out pre-crosslinking and gradient heating
vulcanization to obtain a finished product. A porous net structure allows rubber
slurry to fully permeate, the contact area of the filler and a matrix is increased, and efficient reinforcement is realized by low mixing amount; znO nano-particles can convert
ultraviolet light into visible light, and the
aging resistance is enhanced by matching with the
scattering effect of a porous structure; the
coupling agent modifies and optimizes the interfacial compatibility, the problem that agglomeration and performance of a traditional filler are difficult to consider is solved, and the finished product has high strength and excellent
aging resistance and meets the requirements of tires, sealing elements and other scenes.
