Abstract

Abstract Energy-saving tires have been developed by researchers in the industry in order to minimize hysteresis loss. In general, this is achieved by combining precipitated silica sourced from silica sand with a silane coupling agent. This strategic reaction serves to elevate the performance characteristics of tread tire, effectively enhancing their properties. Therefore, this research is aimed to investigate the utilization of commercially available biosilica compared to high dispersed (HD) silica, examining their potential as reinforcing agents in the composition of passenger tread tire compound. This compound was formulated using a blend of solution styrene-butadiene rubber (SSBR) and butadiene rubber (BR). A comprehensive analysis was conducted to assess the impact of varying ratios between biosilica and HD silica on the mechanical and dynamic properties of tread tire compound composed of SSBR and BR blend. The results showed that the incorporation of biosilica could effectively reduce the filler network resulting in better dispersion of biosilica in the SSBR/BR blend matrix. As a result, it improved wet grip (44%) and rolling resistance (26%) while maintaining abrasion resistance compared with HD silica in passenger tread tire compound. The application of biosilica as an eco-friendly reinforcement material exhibited its potential for elevating the performance of energy-efficient tread tire.

生物二氧化硅在节能轮胎化合物中的应用:提高性能和效率

节能轮胎的研究是为了减少轮胎的滞回损耗。一般来说，这是通过将来自硅砂的沉淀二氧化硅与硅烷偶联剂结合来实现的。这种策略性反应有助于提升胎面轮胎的性能特征，有效地提高其性能。因此，本研究旨在研究商用生物二氧化硅与高分散(HD)二氧化硅的利用情况，研究它们作为增强剂在客车胎面轮胎复合材料中的潜力。该化合物是用溶液丁苯橡胶(SSBR)和丁二烯橡胶(BR)的共混物配制的。综合分析了不同比例的生物二氧化硅和HD二氧化硅对由SSBR和BR共混物组成的胎面轮胎胶力学和动力性能的影响。结果表明，生物二氧化硅的掺入可以有效地减少填料网络，使生物二氧化硅在SSBR/BR共混基质中的分散性更好。因此，与HD二氧化硅乘用胎面轮胎化合物相比，它提高了湿抓地力(44%)和滚动阻力(26%)，同时保持了耐磨性。生物二氧化硅作为一种环保增强材料的应用显示了其提高节能胎面轮胎性能的潜力。
