<p>Disclosed are elastomeric compositions including an elastomer and an aggregate comprising a carbon phase and a metal-containing species phase, optionally including a coupling agent. Also disclosed is an aggregate comprising a carbon phase and a metal-containing species phase. A variety of elastomers and formulations employing such elastomers are contemplated and disclosed. Elastomeric compositions incorporating an elastomer and the aggregate are also disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for preparing elastomers compounded with the aggregate, and methods of improving various properties of elastomeric compositions, such as abrasion resistance, hysteresis, wet skid resistance, and/or wet traction.</p> |
