The present disclosure relates to a modifier, and more particularly, to a modifier including a compound represented by Formula 1, and a method of preparing the same. Such modifier exhibits excellent dispersibility via hydrogen bonding with an inorganic filler when mixed therewith. The present disclosure also relates to a modified conjugated diene-based polymer and a method of preparing the modified conjugated diene-based polymer by using the modifier. The resulted modified conjugated diene-based polymer exhibits excellent processability, high tensile strength, high wear resistance, low rolling resistance, and high wet skid resistance.

Modifier, method of preparing the same, and modified conjugated diene-based polymer including the same

A modified conjugated diene-based polymer, and more particularly, a modified conjugated diene-based polymer having a unimodal molecular weight distribution curve measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), molecular weight distribution (PDI; MWD) of less than 1.7, and a Si content of 100 ppm or more based on weight, and a rubber composition including the same.

Modified conjugated diene-based polymer and rubber composition including the same

The present invention relates to a modifier useful for the modification of a conjugated diene-based polymer, having excellent affinity with a filler, and capable of improving the compounding properties of a conjugated diene-based polymer, a method for preparing the same, a modified conjugated diene-based polymer including the modifier, and a method for preparing the polymer.

Modifier, method for preparing the same, and modified conjugated diene-based polymer including the same

The present disclosure relates to a modifier, and more particularly, to a modifier including a compound represented by Formula 1, and a method of preparing the same. Such modifier exhibits excellent dispersibility via hydrogen bonding with an inorganic filler when mixed therewith. The present disclosure also relates to a modified conjugated diene-based polymer modified using the modifier and thus exhibiting excellent processability, high tensile strength, high wear resistance, low rolling resistance, and high wet skid resistance, and a method of preparing the modified conjugated diene-based polymer.

The present invention provides an azasilane-based modifier of Formula 1, which may easily introduce a functional group having affinity with a filler into a conjugated diene-based polymer chain, a modified and conjugated diene-based polymer including the functional group derived from the azasilane-based modifier, a method for preparing the modified and conjugated diene-based polymer, a rubber composition including the modified and conjugated diene-based polymer, and a molded article and a tire manufactured from the rubber composition.
