Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a tire puncture sealant whereby both sealing performance and storage performance can be achieved. A tire puncture sealant is provided that includes a natural rubber latex, an antifreezing agent, and an acrylic emulsion. A mass ratio of a solid content of the natural rubber latex to a solid content of the acrylic emulsion (natural rubber/acrylic resin) is from 50/50 to 15/85. An amount of the antifreezing agent is from 100 to 300 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of a total of the solid content of the natural rubber latex and the solid content of the acrylic emulsion. The total of the solid content of the natural rubber latex and the solid content of the acrylic emulsion is from 20 to 40 mass % of a total mass of the tire puncture sealant.
Claims4
A tire puncture sealant comprising a natural rubber latex, an antifreezing agent, a surfactant, and an emulsion including an acrylic resin;
- wherein
- the tire puncture sealant is substantially free of a tackifier,
- a mass ratio of a solid content of the natural rubber latex to a solid content of the emulsion (natural rubber/acrylic resin) is from 50/50 to 15/85,
- an amount of the antifreezing agent is from 100 to 300 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of a total of the solid content of the natural rubber latex and the solid content of the emulsion,
- a total mass of the solid content of the natural rubber latex and the solid content of the emulsion is from 20 to 40 mass % of a total mass of the tire puncture sealant, and wherein a glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin is not greater than 0° C.,
- said acrylic resin is a polymer obtained from a monomer selected from the group consisting of a (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester having not less than two alkyl carbons and optionally one or more additional monomers selected from the group consisting of methyl (meth)acrylate, and
- the surfactant includes at least one anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfates, polyoxyethylene alkyl phenyl ether sulfates, alkylbenzene sulfonates, alkylnaphthalene sulfonates, α-sulfo fatty acid methyl ester salts, α-olefin sulfonates, alkane sulfonates, polyoxy-mono and di-styryl phenylether monoester sulfosuccinates, and alkyl phenoxy polyoxyethylene propyl sulfonates.
