A method for the surface oxidation of carbon black comprises continuously mixing a solution or slurry of the carbon black in an organic or other solvent with a liquid carrier containing a reagent for surface oxidation of the carbon black in a counter current mixing reactor whereby to obtain reaction of the carbon black with the reagent and the formation of a surface oxidised carbon black as a dispersion of nanoparticles in the liquid carrier and solvent mixture.

The present disclosure relates to surface-functionalized carbonaceous particles, optionally in agglomerated form, methods for making such surface-functionalized carbonaceous particles and their use, for example as conductive additives in battery electrodes. The surface-functionalized carbonaceous particles are for example obtainable by milling a non-graphitic carbon material, followed by subsequent functionalization through controlled oxidation. The surface-functionalized carbonaceous particles can be used as additive in battery electrodes. The disclosure also pertains to dispersions of such carbonaceous materials in a liquid medium and their use as, among others, conductive coatings. Polymer compounds filled with the surface-functionalized carbonaceous particles are also disclosed.

Disclosed is a method for preparing self-dispersing nano carbon black based on a thiol-ene click reaction. A sol-gel technique is used to graft a coupling agent containing a carbon-carbon double bond onto the surface of the carbon black, and a functional molecular chain is grafted onto the surface of the carbon black by a thiol-ene click reaction with a mercapto compound. The self-dispersing nano carbon black is obtained after centrifugation, washing and drying. The method is simple and easy to operate, has a high grafting rate, and can prepare self-dispersing nano carbon black adaptable to different systems by selecting mercapto compounds with different functional groups.

A surface modified and functionalized carbon black for use in a rubber compound suitable for tire tread compounds which can be described as a surface modified low hysteresis carbon black. The modified carbon black contains a chemical consisting of at least one amine group and at least one thiol group and/or di- and/or polysulfidic linkage. The surface modified low hysteresis carbon black in a representative rubber tire tread compound shows improved rolling resistance, improved wet traction, and improved or maintained abrasion resistance, being superior to compounds containing N234 carbon black or silica. The improved tire rolling resistance obtained by using a compound containing a surface modified low hysteresis carbon black is highly desirable for reduced CO.sub.2 emissions, reduced pollution, sustainability, and protection of the environment.
