Abstract

The present invention aims to provide a masterbatch which enables microfibrillated plant fibers to be well dispersed in a rubber composition so that they can provide reinforcement equal to or greater than that by conventional fillers; a rubber composition containing the masterbatch; and a pneumatic tire produced using the rubber composition. The present invention relates to a masterbatch containing a modified natural rubber with a phosphorus content of 200 ppm or less, and microfibrillated plant fibers. Preferably, the microfibrillated plant fibers in a primary form have an average fiber diameter of 4 nm to 10 [mu]m and an average fiber length of 100 nm to 200 [mu]m.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a masterbatch, a rubber composition containing the masterbatch, and a pneumatic tire manufactured using the rubber composition. Background technique [0002] Adding microfibrillated plant fibers, such as cellulose fibers, as a filler to a rubber composition can strengthen the rubber composition and increase the hardness and modulus of the rubber composition. However, microfibrillated plant fibers have poor compatibility with rubber components and thus poor dispersibility, and thus, they cause deterioration in tensile properties and fuel economy. Therefore, there is a need for a method to improve the dispersibility of microfibrillated plant fibers. [0003] Patent Document 1 discloses a method of improving compatibility between a rubber component and microfibrillated plant fibers by chemically modifying microfibrillated plant fibers. However, even this method is unsatisfactory and should be improved since such fibers a...
