[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a method for producing a rubber vulcanizate from a rubber composition containing an acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber, a vinyl chloride resin, and a vulcanizing agent. The present invention relates to a method for producing a rubber vulcanizate having improved workability, heat generation properties, etc., and has oil resistance and ozone resistance. [Prior Art] Conventionally, rubber compositions consisting of acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer rubber (NBR) and vinyl chloride resin (PVC) have been used as rubber compositions that provide rubber vulcanizates with oil resistance and ozone resistance. Are known. By the way, in order for the rubber vulcanizate using the above rubber composition to exhibit sufficient ozone resistance, NBR
It is necessary that the NBR and PVC are sufficiently and uniformly mixed, and that the PVC is completely dissolved in the NBR.
To this end, conventionally, when preparing a rubber composition,
At the stage of mixing NBR and PVC, or after mixing both, PVC melts due to shearing force at a temperature higher than the temperature at which PVC melts (called gelation temperature).
was sufficiently dissolved and dispersed in NBR to prevent PVC from remaining in the NBR/PVC mixture in the form of particles or aggregates. If the rubber composition is prepared at a temperature lower than the gelling temperature of PVC, or if mixing is insufficient even at a temperature higher than the gelling temperature of PVC,
Sufficient ozone resistance cannot be obtained, and tensile strength (tensile strength) does not reach a sufficient level. Therefore, it has hitherto been very difficult to produce a rubber vulcanizate having a sufficient level of tensile strength and ozone resistance. In addition, rubber compositions prepared by thorough mixing at a temperature higher than the gelation temperature of PVC have a high viscosity, so if a large amount of fillers, reinforcing agents, etc. are added, the rubber composition may The viscosity of the product becomes extremely high, making processing operations difficult, and there are also problems such as rubber burning and scorch, making it difficult to produce rubber vulcanizates with high hardness, and improvements are needed. Ta. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] An object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art described above, and to provide a rubber vulcanizate having improved processability, workability, heat generation properties, etc., and having oil resistance and ozone resistance. The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for manufacturing the same. As a result of extensive research, the present inventor has found that when producing a rubber vulcanizate from a rubber composition containing an acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber, a vinyl chloride resin, and a vulcanizing agent, acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and a vinyl chloride resin with an average particle diameter of 5 μm or less are mixed together, coprecipitated, and dried in the latex at a temperature lower than the gelation temperature of the vinyl chloride resin, so that the vinyl chloride resin forms the average particle size. A mixture is obtained which is uniformly dispersed in acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber while maintaining the particle morphology having a diameter, and then a compounding agent containing a vulcanizing agent is added at a temperature lower than the gelling temperature of the vinyl chloride resin. Using the rubber composition obtained by mixing under temperature conditions,
By vulcanizing at a temperature higher than the temperature at which the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition gels, the rubber vulcanizate has good processability even with high filling, and also has oil resistance and ozone resistance. The present invention was completed based on this finding. [Means for Solving the Problems] According to the present invention, in a method for producing a rubber vulcanizate from a rubber composition containing an acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber, a vinyl chloride resin, and a vulcanizing agent, (1) A granular resin with an average particle diameter of 5 μm or less is used as the vinyl chloride resin, and (2) the acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and the vinyl chloride resin are heated at a temperature lower than the gelling temperature of the vinyl chloride resin. The latexes are mixed, co-precipitated, and dried under temperature conditions, and the vinyl chloride resin is uniformly dispersed in the acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber while maintaining the particle form having the above-mentioned average particle size. (3) Mix a compounding agent containing a vulcanizing agent at a temperature lower than the gelling temperature of the vinyl chloride resin; (4) Use the obtained rubber composition to form a rubber composition. Provided is a method for producing a rubber vulcanizate having oil resistance and ozone resistance, which is characterized in that vulcanization is carried out at a temperature equal to or higher than the temperature at which the vinyl chloride resin therein gels. In the manufacturing method of the present invention, except for vulcanizing at a high temperature higher than the gelation temperature of the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition in the vulcanization step, the steps of preparing the rubber composition, the obtained rubber composition Even in processing processes that use
It is necessary to prevent this from happening. As a result, the viscosity of the composition of acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and vinyl chloride resin becomes low, and the viscosity of the rubber composition can be kept low even when highly loaded with compounding ingredients, making it possible to reduce the viscosity in the processing process. Power consumption, burning due to heat generation, and scorch are improved, and flow characteristics are improved, such as making it easier to formulate high-hardness formulations. (Vinyl Chloride Resin) The vinyl chloride resin used in the present invention is a granular resin with an average particle diameter of 5 μm or less, preferably 1 μm or less, and more preferably 0.2 μm or less. By using such a granular vinyl chloride resin, a rubber vulcanizate having ozone resistance equivalent to that produced by conventional methods can be obtained, and the fluidity of the rubber composition in the processing step can be improved. The average particle size is
If it exceeds 5 μm, it becomes difficult to gel the vinyl chloride resin and dissolve it into the acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber during the vulcanization process using only the heat history during vulcanization, resulting in poor ozone resistance and strength properties. etc. will decrease. The average degree of polymerization of vinyl chloride resin is usually 400.
Above, those in the range of 800 to 2000 are preferably used. As shown in Table 1 below, the simple gelation temperature of vinyl chloride resin varies mainly depending on the average degree of polymerization, but as described below, when it is made into a composition, the gelation temperature of vinyl chloride resin varies depending on the addition of a plasticizer. It also changes depending on the amount and the type and amount of other blended components. For example, if a large amount of plasticizer is blended, the gelling temperature will decrease. Examples of the vinyl chloride resin include polyvinyl chloride resin, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, vinyl chloride-ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, and modified polyvinyl chloride resin. Such vinyl chloride resins can be produced by suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, bulk polymerization, etc., but in order to latex blend them with acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber, they are usually produced by emulsion polymerization. Preferably, it is manufactured. (Acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber) The acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber used in the present invention contains acrylonitrile and 1,3
- A copolymer with at least one conjugated diene monomer such as butadiene, isoprene, 1,3-pentadiene, and acrylic acid, methacrylic acid,
It is a multicomponent copolymer made by copolymerizing α,β-ethylenically unsaturated compounds such as malelenic acid, or dicarboxylic acids and their esters. Specific examples include acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer rubber, acrylonitrile-isoprene copolymer rubber, acrylonitrile-butadiene-isoprene ternary copolymer rubber, and acrylonitrile-butadiene-butyl acrylate ternary copolymer rubber. These copolymer rubbers can be produced by emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization, etc., but it is usually preferable to produce them by emulsion polymerization in order to latex blend them with vinyl chloride resin. The amount of bound acrylonitrile in the copolymer rubber is usually in the range of 10 to 50% by weight, considering the functionality of the oil-resistant rubber and its compatibility with the vinyl chloride resin, and the amount of bound acrylonitrile is in the range of 10 to 50% by weight, depending on the properties required for the rubber-resin composition. A suitable amount of bound acrylonitrile can be appropriately determined within the above range. (Manufacture of rubber composition) The mixing ratio of acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and vinyl chloride resin may be determined as appropriate depending on the purpose of use, but usually acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber 95 -45% by weight, and 5-55% by weight of vinyl chloride resin. The method of mixing acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and vinyl chloride resin is to mix the latexes of these polymers together at the gelling temperature of the vinyl chloride resin (which varies depending on the average degree of polymerization, but is approximately 170°C).
A latex blending method is adopted in which the materials are mixed at a lower temperature than before and after the materials are mixed, co-precipitated, and dried. In the method of the present invention, even when latex blending is performed as in the conventional method, there is no need to dry under shearing force at a high temperature higher than the gelling temperature of vinyl chloride resin, and the conventional acrylonitrile-conjugated A drying method similar to that used for drying diene copolymer rubber may be used (for example, drying with a hand dryer at 100° C. or lower). In the mixture of the acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and the vinyl chloride resin of the present invention, the vinyl chloride resin does not gel at all, and the vinyl chloride resin maintains a particle form having the above average particle diameter. As it is, it is uniformly dispersed in the acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber. The mixture of acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber and vinyl chloride resin is then treated with reinforcing agents such as carbon black, silica, and calcium carbonate.
Or fillers, vulcanizing agents, vulcanization accelerators, plasticity,
It is mixed with a compound containing a vulcanizing agent such as a processing aid to form a rubber composition. These compounds are mixed at a temperature at which the rubber composition is not vulcanized and which is lower than the gelling temperature of the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition. (Vulcanization Step) In order to produce a rubber vulcanizate using the rubber composition, vulcanization is performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the gelation temperature of the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition. As a result, the granular vinyl chloride resin is melted and a rubber vulcanizate exhibiting ozone resistance equivalent to that produced by conventional methods can be obtained. The gelation temperature of vinyl chloride resin depends on the average degree of polymerization of the resin, but when it is made into a rubber composition,
Since it depends on the amount of plasticizer blended, etc., it is necessary to measure the gelation temperature of the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition in advance and set a preferable vulcanization temperature. When vulcanization is carried out at a temperature higher than the gelation temperature of the vinyl chloride resin in the rubber composition, the particle structure of the vinyl chloride resin completely disappears, and after vulcanization, the difference between the inventive method and the conventional method. It is indistinguishable from other vulcanizates. [Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically explained with reference to Examples. Example 1 Acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer rubber (hereinafter abbreviated as NBR, amount of bound acrylonitrile
33% by weight) and vinyl chloride resin (hereinafter abbreviated as PVC) was produced by a latex coprecipitation method. Each of the eight PVC latexes listed in Table 1 produced by a conventional emulsion polymerization method and NBR latex were mixed at a polymer weight ratio of 3:7. Add 10 times its volume to 3.5% CaCl2 by weight of the mixture.
The mixture was poured into an aqueous coagulant solution, and stirring was continued for 10 minutes to cause coprecipitation. The coprecipitate was transferred to a 20-mesh wire mesh, thoroughly drained, and then dried under reduced pressure at 70°C for 20 hours.
The obtained co-precipitated dried product was divided into two parts, one part was left as is (method of the present invention) and the other part was used to gel the PVC.
It was masticated for 5 minutes on an 8-inch roll heated to 175°C (conventional method). In addition, this co-precipitated dried product includes
Due to the inclusion of NBR, the gelation temperature of PVC is slightly lower than that of the plain case, and 175
Granulated by masticating under shear at ℃
PVC completely gelled.

[Table] In Table 3, TB is tensile strength, EB is elongation,
HS represents hardness. Further, the ozone deterioration test used the test method and evaluation criteria specified in JIS K 6301-16.
That is, A: few cracks, B: many cracks, C: countless cracks, NC means no cracks, and Cut means cutting. Branch numbers 1 to 5 are: 1: invisible to the naked eye but visible with a 10x magnifying glass, 2: visible to the naked eye, 3: cracks deep and relatively large, 4: cracks deep big one, 5:3
Indicates something that is likely to cause cracks or cuts larger than mm. From the results in Table 3, it can be seen that the rubber composition prepared by the method of the present invention has insufficient gelation of PVC at a relatively low vulcanization temperature of 150°C for 20 minutes, and the rubber composition prepared by the conventional method (including already gelled PVC)
The ozone resistance is extremely poor compared to the vulcanizate of
It can be seen that when vulcanized at a temperature equal to or higher than the gelation temperature of PVC, almost the same ozone resistance as the vulcanized product of the conventional rubber composition can be obtained. Therefore, it can be seen that vulcanization is preferably carried out at a temperature equal to or higher than the gelling temperature of PVC in the rubber composition, and at a temperature such that the particle structure of PVC completely disappears. In addition, the vulcanizate of the comparative example (experiment number 8) using PVC with an excessively large average particle size was
Even when vulcanized at a temperature higher than the gelling temperature of PVC, the ozone resistance was poor. Figures 1 to 6 show the results of observing the dispersion states of NBR/PVC mixtures prepared by the method of the present invention and the conventional method using an electron microscope. The NBR/PVC mixtures of Experiment No. 1 and Experiment No. 6 (both made by the method of the present invention and without any additives added) and these mixtures were
The samples were frozen by applying pressure for 5 minutes at a temperature higher than the gelling temperature of PVC (180℃), and ultrathin sections were prepared using an ultramicrotome and observed using a transmission electron microscope. Got the results. Similarly, the results when the above thermal history was given to the mixture of experiment number 8 (comparative example) are shown in Figure 6.
Further, the results of the mixture of Experiment No. 11 (conventional method, the above thermal history was not given) are shown in FIG. These results are summarized in Table 4.

According to the present invention, when producing a rubber vulcanizate having oil resistance and ozone resistance from a rubber composition containing an acrylonitrile-conjugated diene copolymer rubber, a vinyl chloride resin, and a vulcanizing agent, the vulcanization step is performed. Until
Since heating and kneading treatment is not performed under conditions that would cause gelation of PVC, a manufacturing method with improved processability, workability, heat generation, economic efficiency, etc. is provided. In addition, the rubber composition has a viscosity (Mooney viscosity)
Since the compound is low, the kneading workability, heat generation property, and scorch property are improved, and the compound viscosity at high temperature (minimum rheometer torque) is high, so it is effective in preventing shape collapse during vulcanization.
