The surface of the rubber material contains a large amount of silicon hydroxyl, the particle size is small, the specific surface area is large, the polarity is strong, and the rubber material is easy to agglomerate in a nonpolar rubber material, so that the reinforcing effect is reduced. Through proper surface organic modification, the surface polarity of the rubber can be reduced, and the compatibility with rubber is enhanced.
The common method for rubber nano composite material is mainly mechanical blending method, and rubber material and powdered nano silicon dioxide are plasticated and mixed in solid state by adopting mechanical equipment such as a double-roller open mill, an internal mixer and a screw extruder to prepare the rubber nano composite material. In the traditional mechanical blending method, the mixing energy consumption is high, dust is easy to generate, environmental pollution is caused, the loss of filler is large, the dispersion is not uniform, the processing of the composite material is not facilitated, and the stress concentration and the mechanical property of the composite material are directly caused.
The wet mixing is the main development direction of the mixing process of natural rubber, and the natural rubber emulsion and the nano material dispersion liquid are mixed in an emulsion state to form a uniform emulsion system, and then the uniform emulsion system is flocculated by a flocculating agent, co-precipitated or dried at high temperature to prepare the natural rubber nano composite material.
In recent years, various patent technologies relating to the preparation of natural rubber nanocomposites by wet kneading have been disclosed, and can be roughly classified into two main categories: one is a flocculating agent demulsification method, under the action of an emulsifying agent, a nano material is pre-modified at a certain temperature by adopting organic modifying agents such as a silane coupling agent and the like, a nano material dispersion liquid with a certain solid content is prepared, the dispersion liquid and natural rubber emulsion are uniformly blended, and then flocculating agents are added for coprecipitation to prepare a composite material; the other is a high-temperature drying method, firstly preparing nano material emulsion, uniformly mixing the emulsion and natural rubber emulsion, and directly drying at high temperature by the processes of spraying, flash evaporation and the like to prepare the composite material.

It should be noted that: the surface-modified nano-silica is obtained by a liquid-phase in-situ surface modification method, which can be specifically referred to in the literature (Xiaohong Li, Zhi Cao, Zhijun Zhang, Hongxin Dang2applied Surface science.2006, and its structures and triglogic properties; 7856-7861 Fahui Yan, XiiaobingZhang, Feng Liu, Xiaohong Li, Zhijun Zhang, adjusting the properties of silicone fibers with a silicone by changing the surface organic groups of silicone composites Part B, Engineering, 2015; 75,47-52.) or (CN102502663A, CN1704452A, CN1666954A) to prepare nano SiO2The surface contains organic groups; or can be purchased from common commercial products and used after being modified by the modifier.
In the invention, the preparation of uniformly dispersed nano-silica aqueous dispersion is the key for preparing high-performance wet rubber compound, and the method selects the nano-silica with surface modification as the filler, and the nano-silica is wetted by alkyl alcohol and uniformly dispersed in the water solution in an emulsion reaction device. In addition, the main function of the alkyl alcohol in the invention is to rapidly and uniformly disperse the surface organically modified silicon dioxide in the aqueous solution, and the preparation of the dispersion can also be realized by regulating the polarity of the surface of the silicon dioxide without adding an auxiliary agent.
The invention selects the nano silicon dioxide with surface modification as the filler, and the nano silicon dioxide with surface modification reduces the surface energy and surface polarity of the nano silicon dioxide, weakens the agglomeration of the nano filler, greatly improves the affinity of the nano filler with a nonpolar rubber material, and reduces the loss of the silicon dioxide and natural rubber in the wet mixing process.
The surface modified nano silicon dioxide is selected as the filler, and due to the strong adsorption effect of the nano silicon dioxide, the water-soluble protein is peeled from the surface of the rubber molecular chain and is adsorbed on the surface of the rubber molecular chain under the action of two-phase mixing mechanical stirring, so that a filler-rubber network structure is quickly formed, and the demulsification of the natural rubber emulsion is caused.
The outer layer structure of the natural rubber particle is water-soluble protein, phospholipid and the like, the macromolecular chain structure is coated inside, and an electric double layer structure is formed on the surface of the particle due to the ionization effect of the protein and the phospholipid on the surface of the rubber particle, so that the particle has weaker negative charges. After the surface-modified nano silicon dioxide is added into a natural rubber emulsion system, the double electronic layer structure on the surface of the natural rubber emulsion particle is destroyed, and the charge balance is broken, so that the demulsification of the natural rubber emulsion colloid system is caused.
Therefore, the invention can realize the flocculation coprecipitation of the natural rubber/silicon dioxide nano composite material without adding any flocculating agent.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the invention selects the nano silicon dioxide with surface modification as the filler, which can realize the flocculation of the natural rubber emulsion; the invention has wide application range and can be widely applied to the wet mixing of latexes with different solid contents of natural rubber.

According to the invention, the nano-silica and the natural rubber have better affinity by regulating and controlling the modification group, the purpose of flocculation can be achieved by adsorbing natural rubber molecular chains in the emulsion, the flocculation is thorough, the loss amount of the nano-silica in the mixing process can be reduced to below 1%, a flocculating agent is not used in the process, the problem of water pollution in the creping and washing process is avoided due to the fact that the flocculating agent is not used for flocculation, the environment is friendly, and the corrosion of the flocculating agent to equipment can be reduced.
3. The flocculation process of the invention is simple and convenient, the equipment is simple, and the flocculated composite micelle (flocculate) can be prepared into the wet-process rubber compound through the procedures of crepe, water washing, hammer milling granulation, drying and the like in the traditional production process.

Examples 1 to 3 are different from comparative examples 1 to 3 in the preparation method, examples 1 to 3 are composite materials prepared by wet mixing flocculation without a flocculant, and comparative examples 1 to 3 are composite materials prepared by conventional dry mixing. As can be seen from Table 2, examples 1-3 are higher in tensile strength, 100%, 200%, 300% stress at elongation, and tear strength than comparative examples 1-3, because the wet mixing process improves the dispersibility of the silica in the rubber matrix. Meanwhile, as the silicon dioxide is uniformly dispersed, the number of rubber molecular chains adsorbed/wound on the surface of the silicon dioxide is increased, and the interfacial bonding between the filler and the rubber is further enhanced, so that the elongation at break of the composite material prepared by the method is slightly reduced compared with that of the composite material prepared by the traditional dry mixing method.
The difference between the comparative example 4 and the example 1 is that the preparation method is different, and the example 1 can realize the demulsification and flocculation of the natural rubber emulsion without adding a flocculating agent in the wet mixing process; comparative example 4 is the traditional wet mixing process, and the rubber nanocomposite is prepared after the flocculant is added in the mixing process. By comparing the properties of example 1 and comparative example 4 (see table 2), it can be seen that the tensile strength, 100%, 200%, 300% stress at definite elongation, and tear strength of the samples prepared according to the present invention are higher than those of comparative example 4; the elongation at break of the inventive sample is slightly lower than that of comparative example 4, which may be related to the stronger bonding strength of the inventive sample filler to rubber.

The surface modified nano silicon dioxide is selected, so that the filler-rubber compatibility is good, and the binding force is strong; the flocculation and coprecipitation of the natural rubber/nano silicon dioxide can be realized without a flocculating agent in the wet mixing process, so that the water pollution in the primary processing process of the natural rubber can be greatly reduced, and the ring pressure maintaining is reduced; the wet mixing process has complete demulsification, the loss of silicon dioxide in the wet mixing process is less than 1 percent, the equipment is simple, and the industrial production is easy to realize.
The wet mixing process is used for treating natural rubber skim latex, can flocculate more than 70% of organic matters in the natural rubber skim latex, and provides a new way for treating byproducts prepared from the natural rubber concentrated latex.
