Elastomer Composite And Method For Producing It

US Patent:
8586651, Nov 19, 2013
Filed:
Feb 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/866323
Inventors:
Meng-jiao Wang - Shanghai, CN
Ting Wang - Lexington MA, US
Michael D. Morris - Nashua NH, US
Xuan Zhang - Acton MA, US
Martin C. Green - Boxborough MA, US
Assignee:
Cabot Corporation - Boston MA
International Classification:
C08C 1/14, C08K 3/04
US Classification:
523352, 523323, 524495, 524496
Abstract:
A method of producing an elastomer composite. The method includes A) combining a first fluid comprising elastomer latex with a second fluid comprising particulate filler; B) causing the elastomer latex to coagulate, thereby forming masterbatch crumb; C) bringing the masterbatch crumb to a water content of about 1 weight percent to about 20 weight percent, thereby forming a dewatered coagulum; D) removing water from the dewatered coagulum by subjecting the dewatered coagulum to mechanical energy, thereby causing the dewatered coagulum to heat as a result of friction, while allowing the dewatered coagulum to achieve a temperature of about 130° C. to about 190° C. , wherein water content is reduced to about 0. 5% to about 3% and wherein substantially all of the decrease in water content is accomplished by evaporation, thereby producing a masticated masterbatch; and E) subjecting the masticated masterbatch to at least an additional 0. 3 MJ/kg of mechanical energy while further reducing the water content.

Dispersion, Coating Composition, And Recording Medium Containing Silica Mixture

US Patent:
6861112, Mar 1, 2005
Filed:
Nov 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/295983
Inventors:
Michael D. Morris - Nashua NH, US
Joanne Liu - Lowell MA, US
Steven E. Brown - Tyngsboro MA, US
Assignee:
Cabot Corporation - Boston MA
International Classification:
B41M005/40
US Classification:
428 3221, 428 3235, 428 3237, 524492, 524493
Abstract:
The invention provides an aqueous dispersion comprising fumed silica particles, colloidal silica particles, and water. The fumed silica particles have a BET surface area of about 70 to about 140 m/g, and the colloidal silica particles have a BET surface area of about 110 to about 150 m/g. Also, the total amount of silica in the dispersion is about 35% to about 60% by weight, and the fumed silica particles comprise about 25% to about 80% by weight of the total amount of silica in the dispersion. The invention also provides a coating composition and a recording medium incorporating the inventive dispersion.
