A comparative study of α- and γ-functional silane coupling agents in silica-filled SBR vulcanized with conventional sulfur systems shows that the effects of silanes on vulcanization kinetics and their coupling effects depend on their structure and location. Rubber reactive groups. All tested silanes containing mercapto or sulfide functional groups resulted in improvements in tensile properties and affected the cure kinetics of the systems used.
Silane coupling agent Crosile-69(Si69) is bifunctional, sulfur-containing organosilane for rubber applications in combination with white fillers containing silanol groups
Organosilanes containing sulfur are a type of organosilicon compound, which contain both sulfur and silicon elements in their molecules, typically with a structure similar to that of silanes. These compounds can be used as adhesives, lubricants, antioxidants, and anti-corrosion agents.
Novel Monosulfur Silane Crosile-966 is a thio-carboxylate functional silane that can reduce rolling resistance while maintaining wet traction. Compared to conventional silane coupling agents like Crosile-69 and Crosile-75; Crosile-966 offers superior processing performance and can improve the overall production efficiency of tires.
