    [0001] The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a masterbatch comprising sulfur, more generally comprising a sulfur-containing material. , and carbon nanofillers, as well as the masterbatch thus obtained and its various uses. The invention also relates to a solid composition comprising carbon nanofillers dispersed in a sulfur material. STATE OF THE ART Sulfur is very widely and commonly used in many fields of industry, in particular the chemical industry as a synthetic reagent for the preparation of various chemical compounds, such as, for example, sulfuric acid, anhydride sulfur, oleum, carbon disulphide, sulphites or sulphates for the paper industry, phosphorus pentasulfide as a lubricating agent. Sulfur is also used as elemental sulfur of formula S8, for vulcanizing tires, as an agricultural fungicide, or as sulfur polymers for cements and concretes, or as a heat transfer or storage fluid, in particular for power plants (thermal or nuclear) or for solar panels, as well as active material for Li / S battery electrode. An important raw material for elemental sulfur is hydrogen sulphide, recovered from the exploitation of natural gas deposits or by desulphurization of crude oils. Since natural gas reserves tend to be depleted, elemental sulfur can be extracted directly by drilling the earth's crust, since sulfur is a relatively non-metallic element (only 0.06% of the earth's crust, but easily extractable). and nontoxic. The availability of the raw material makes it possible to envisage the development of the sulfur uses, in elementary form or in the form of sulfurized material, on a large scale and in the long term in many application domains.
    [0002] In some of these applications, it may be advantageous to add to the use of sulfur, carbon nanofillers such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), in order to provide electrical conduction properties and / or mechanical properties. For example, it is envisaged to introduce carbon nanotubes to thermosetting elastomers prior to their vulcanization to produce reinforced tires, or it is envisaged to add carbon nanotubes in lithium-sulfur battery electrode formulations. to improve the kinetics of the electrochemical reactions involved. However, it has never been envisaged to directly introduce carbon nanotubes into sulfur, in particular because CNTs are difficult to handle and to disperse, because of their small size, their powderiness and, possibly, when obtained by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), their entangled structure generating strong Van Der Waals interactions between their molecules. There remains therefore a need for a means for disperse, simply and homogeneously, carbon nanotubes in elemental sulfur, in order to "boost" the sulfur to give it the mechanical and / or conductive properties necessary for intended application. It would then be advantageous for the formulator to have a sulfur powder comprising well dispersed CNTs in the form of ready-to-use masterbatches. However, the Applicant has discovered that this need could be satisfied by implementing a method comprising contacting the CNTs with elemental sulfur by melting in a compounding device, followed by a conversion of the mixture obtained into fine powder by conventional grinding techniques. It also appeared that this invention could also be applied to other carbon nanofillers than CNTs, in particular to carbon nanofibers, graphene and carbon black, or their mixtures in all proportions. In addition, the invention can be applied more generally to "sulfur donor" sulfur materials. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The subject of the invention is a process for the preparation of a masterbatch comprising from 0.01% to 50% by weight of carbonaceous nanofillers, comprising: (a) introduction into a compounding device, at least one sulfurized material, carbon nanofillers, and optionally a rheology modifier; (b) melting the sulfur material; (c) mixing the molten sulfur material and the carbon nanofillers and optionally the rheology modifier; (d) recovering the resulting mixture in agglomerated solid physical form; (e) optionally, grinding the mixture into a powder form. By "carbon nanobond" is meant a charge comprising at least one member of the group consisting of carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, graphene, and carbon black, or a mixture thereof in all proportions. Preferably, the carbon nanofillers are carbon nanotubes, alone or mixed with graphene. By "sulfur material" is meant elemental sulfur, or "sulfur donor" compounds such as sulfur-containing organic compounds or polymers and sulfur-containing inorganic compounds such as anionic alkali metal polysulfides. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, elemental sulfur is used as a sulfur-containing material, alone or as a mixture with at least one other sulfur-containing material. Compounding devices have never been used to achieve an intimate mixture of melt sulfur and carbon nanofillers. Sulfur is a solid at room temperature which becomes liquid from 115 ° C (melting point). One of the disadvantages of liquid sulfur is that its viscosity varies greatly and non-linearly as a function of temperature. To overcome these drawbacks related to unstable viscosity, one of the technical constraints of the compounding device is a relatively narrow melt process window. The control of the rheology of the charged liquid sulfur must then be done with a perfect control of the process operating conditions with the possible help of additives which reduce the viscosification beyond 140 ° C. The method according to the invention makes it possible to create a homogeneous association of carbon nanofillers particles with sulfur, thus conferring on it mechanical and / or conductive properties used in many applications. The subject of the invention is also the masterbatch capable of being obtained according to the process described above. Another aspect of the invention relates to the use of the masterbatch as a vulcanizing agent for elastomers for the manufacture of body seals or seals, tires, noise plates, static dissipators, diapers internal conductor for high and medium voltage cables, or anti-vibration systems such as automobile shock absorbers, or in the manufacture of structural elements of bullet-proof vests, or as an active ingredient for the manufacture of electrodes for Li / S batteries or supercapacitors, without this list being exhaustive. The invention also relates to a solid composition comprising from 0.01 to 50% by weight, preferably from 1 to 30% by weight, of carbon nanofillers dispersed in a sulfur-containing material, as well as to its various uses. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES FIG. 1 illustrates at the SEM the morphology of the S / NTC masterbatch obtained in Example 1 according to the invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention is now described in more detail and in a nonlimiting manner in the description which follows. The method according to the invention is implemented in a compounding device. By "compounding device" is meant, according to the invention, an apparatus conventionally used in the plastics industry for the melt blending of thermoplastic polymers and additives in order to produce composites.
    [0003] This type of apparatus has never been used to achieve an intimate mixture of sulfur and / or sulfur material and carbon nanofillers. In this apparatus, the sulfur-containing material and the carbon nanofillers are mixed using a high-shear device, for example a co-rotating twin-screw extruder or a co-rotating machine. The melt generally comes out of the apparatus in solid physical form agglomerated, for example in the form of granules, or in the form of rods which, after cooling, are cut into granules. Examples of co-kneaders that can be used according to the invention are the BUSS® MDK 46 co-kneaders and those of the BUSS® MKS or MX series sold by the company BUSS AG, all of which consist of a screw shaft provided with fins, disposed in a heating sleeve optionally consisting of several parts and whose inner wall is provided with kneading teeth adapted to cooperate with the fins to produce a shear of the kneaded material. The shaft is rotated and provided with oscillation movement in the axial direction by a motor. These co-kneaders may be equipped with a granule manufacturing system, adapted for example to their outlet orifice, which may consist of an extrusion screw or a pump. The co-kneaders that can be used according to the invention preferably have an L / D screw ratio ranging from 7 to 22, for example from 10 to 20, while the co-rotating extruders advantageously have an L / D ratio ranging from 15 to 56, for example from 20 to 50. The compounding step is carried out at a temperature above the melting point of the sulfur-containing material. In the case of elemental sulfur, the compounding temperature can range from 120 ° C to 150 ° C. In the case of other types of sulfur material, the compounding temperature is a function of the specifically used material whose melting temperature is generally mentioned by the material supplier. The residence time will also be adapted to the nature of the sulfur material. The sulfur material Different sources of elemental sulfur are commercially available. The particle size of the elemental sulfur powder can vary widely. The elemental sulfur can be used as it is, or the sulfur can be previously purified by different techniques such as refining, sublimation, or precipitation.
    [0004] Elemental sulfur or sulfurized material may also be subjected to a prior grinding and / or sieving step in order to reduce the size of the particles and to narrow their distribution. As sulfur-containing materials chosen from sulfur-containing organic compounds or polymers, mention may be made of organic polysulfides, organic polythiolates including, for example, functional groups such as dithioacetal, dithioketal or trithioorthocarbonate, aromatic polysulfides, polyether-polysulfides, acid salts, and the like. polysulfides, thiosulfonates [-S (O) 2 -S-], thiosulfinates [-S (O) -S-], thiocarboxylates [-C (O) -S-], dithiocarboxylates [-RC (S) -S-], thiophosphates, thiophosphonates, thiocarbonates, organometallic polysulfides, or mixtures thereof. Examples of such organo-sulfur compounds are described in particular in document WO 2013/155038. According to the invention, a sulfur-containing inorganic compound, for example chosen from anionic alkali metal polysulfides, such as lithium, may be used as sulfurized material. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the sulfur material is an aromatic polysulfide. The aromatic polysulfides have the following general formula (I): in which: R1 to R9 represent, in the same or different manner, a hydrogen atom, an -OH or -O-M + radical, or a saturated or unsaturated carbon chain; having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or a group -OR10, with R10 being alkyl, arylalkyl, acyl, carboalkoxy, alkyl ether, silyl, silyl alkyl, having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. M represents an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal n and n 'are two integers, identical or different, each being greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 8; p is an integer between 0 and 50; and A is a nitrogen atom, a single bond, or a saturated or unsaturated carbon chain of 1 to 20 carbon atoms. Preferably, in the formula (I): - R 1, R 4 and R 7 are radicals 0-1, 4 +, - R 2, R 5 and R 8 are hydrogen atoms, - R 3, R 6 and R 9 are saturated carbon chains or unsaturated having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, preferably from 3 to 5 carbon atoms, - the average value of n and n 'is about 2, - the average value of p is between 1 and 10, preferably between 3 and 8. (These average values are calculated by those skilled in the art from proton NMR data and by weight assay of sulfur). - A is a single bond linking the sulfur atoms to the aromatic rings. Such poly (alkyl phenol) polysulfides of formula (I) are known and can be prepared for example in two steps: 1) reaction of the sulfur monochloride or dichloride with an alkyl phenol, at a temperature between 100 and 200 ° C, according to the following reaction: OH (II) The compounds of formula (II) are marketed by the company ® ARKEMA under the name VULTAC. 2) reaction of the compound (II) with a metal derivative containing the metal M, such as for example an oxide, a hydroxide, an alkoxide or a dialkylamide of this metal to obtain 0-1 4+ radicals. According to a more preferred variant, R is a tert-butyl or tert-pentyl radical. According to another preferred variant of the invention, a mixture of compounds of formula (I) in which 2 R radicals present on each aromatic unit are used are carbon chains comprising at least one tertiary carbon by which R is linked to the aromatic ring. . The carbon nanofillers The amount of carbon nanofillers represents from 0.01% to 50% by weight, preferably from 1% to 30% by weight, more preferably from 5% to 25% by weight relative to the total weight of the masterbatch . According to the invention, the carbon nanofillers are carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, graphene, or carbon black, or a mixture of these in all proportions. Preferably, the carbon nanofillers are carbon nanotubes, alone or mixed with at least one other carbon-based conductive filler. The carbon nanotubes used in the composition of the masterbatch may be of the single-wall, double-wall or multi-wall type. The double-walled nanotubes can in particular be prepared as described by FLAHAUT et al in Chem. Com. (2003), 1442. The multi-walled nanotubes may themselves be prepared as described in WO 03/02456. The carbon nanotubes used according to the invention usually have a mean diameter ranging from 0.1 to 200 nm, preferably from 0.1 to 100 nm, more preferably from 0.4 to 50 nm, and more preferably from 1 to 100 nm. at 30 nm, or even 10 to 15 nm, and advantageously a length of more than 0.1 .mu.m and advantageously from 0.1 to 20 .mu.m, preferably from 0.1 to 10 .mu.m, for example from about 6 i.tm. Their length / diameter ratio is advantageously greater than 10 and most often greater than 100. These nanotubes therefore comprise in particular nanotubes known as "VGCF" (carbon fibers obtained by chemical vapor deposition or Vapor Grown Carbon Fibers). Their specific surface area is, for example, between 100 and 300 m 2 / g, advantageously between 200 and 300 m 2 / g, and their apparent density may especially be between 0.01 and 0.5 g / cm 3 and more preferably between 0.07 and and 0.2 g / cm3. The multi-walled carbon nanotubes may for example comprise from 5 to 15 sheets and more preferably from 7 to 10 sheets. These nanotubes may or may not be processed. An example of crude carbon nanotubes is in particular the trade name Graphistrength® C100 from Arkema. These nanotubes can be purified and / or treated (for example oxidized) and / or milled and / or functionalized. The grinding of the nanotubes may in particular be carried out cold or hot and be carried out according to known techniques used in devices such as ball mills, hammers, grinders, knives, gas jet or any other system. grinding capable of reducing the size of the entangled network of nanotubes. It is preferred that this grinding step is performed according to a gas jet grinding technique and in particular in an air jet mill. The purification of the crude or milled nanotubes can be carried out by washing with a sulfuric acid solution, so as to rid them of any residual mineral and metal impurities, such as for example iron from their preparation process. . The weight ratio of the nanotubes to the sulfuric acid may especially be between 1: 2 and 1: 3. The purification operation may also be carried out at a temperature ranging from 90 to 120 ° C, for example for a period of 5 to 10 hours. This operation may advantageously be followed by rinsing steps with water and drying the purified nanotubes. The nanotubes may alternatively be purified by high temperature heat treatment, typically greater than 1000 ° C. The oxidation of the nanotubes is advantageously carried out by putting them in contact with a solution of sodium hypochlorite containing from 0.5 to 15% by weight of NaOCl and preferably from 1 to 10% by weight of NaO Cl, for example in a weight ratio of nanotubes to sodium hypochlorite ranging from 1: 0.1 to 1: 1. The oxidation is advantageously carried out at a temperature below 60 ° C. and preferably at room temperature, for a duration ranging from a few minutes to 24 hours. This oxidation operation may advantageously be followed by filtration and / or centrifugation, washing and drying steps of the oxidized nanotubes. The functionalization of the nanotubes can be carried out by grafting reactive units such as vinyl monomers on the surface of the nanotubes. The material constituting the nanotubes is used as a radical polymerization initiator after having been subjected to a heat treatment at more than 900 ° C., in an anhydrous and oxygen-free medium, which is intended to eliminate the oxygenated groups from its surface. It is thus possible to polymerize methyl methacrylate or hydroxyethyl methacrylate on the surface of carbon nanotubes. In the present invention, it is preferable to use raw nanotubes of crushed carbon, that is to say nanotubes which are neither oxidized nor purified nor functionalized and have undergone no other chemical and / or thermal treatment. Furthermore, it is preferred to use carbon nanotubes obtained from renewable raw material, in particular of vegetable origin, as described in application FR 2 914 634. The carbon nanofibers are, like carbon nanotubes, nanofilaments produced by chemical vapor deposition (or CVD) from a carbon source which is decomposed on a catalyst comprising a transition metal (Fe, Ni, Co, Cu), in the presence of hydrogen, at temperatures of 500 to 1200 ° C. However, these two carbonaceous charges are differentiated by their structure (I. MARTINGULLON et al., Carbon 44 (2006) 1572-1580). Indeed, the carbon nanotubes consist of one or more sheets of graphene wound concentrically around the axis of the fiber to form a cylinder having a diameter of 10 to 100 nm. On the contrary, carbon nanofibers are composed of more or less organized graphitic zones (or turbostratic stacks) whose planes are inclined at variable angles with respect to the axis of the fiber. These stacks can take the form of platelets, fish bones or stacked cups to form structures generally ranging in diameter from 100 nm to 500 nm or more. Furthermore, it is preferred to use carbon nanofibers having a diameter of 100 to 200 nm, for example about 150 nm (VGCF® from SHOWA DENKO), and advantageously a length of 100 to 200 μm.
    [0005] By graphene is meant a sheet of graphite plane, isolated and individualized, but also, by extension, an assembly comprising between one and a few tens of sheets and having a flat structure or more or less wavy. This definition therefore includes FLG (Few Layer Graphene or Graphene NanoRibbons or Graphene NanoRibbons), NGP (Nanosized Graphene Plates), CNS (Carbon NanoSheets or nano-graphene sheets), and Graphene NanoRibbons. nano-ribbons of graphene). On the other hand, it excludes carbon nanotubes and nanofibers, which consist respectively of the winding of one or more sheets of graphene in a coaxial manner and of the turbostratic stacking of these sheets. It is furthermore preferred that the graphene used according to the invention is not subjected to an additional step of chemical oxidation or functionalization. The graphene used according to the invention is obtained by chemical vapor deposition or CVD, preferably by a process using a powdery catalyst based on a mixed oxide. It is typically in the form of particles having a thickness of less than 50 nm, preferably less than 15 nm, more preferably less than 5 nm and less than one micron side dimensions, preferably 10 nm at less than 1000 nm, more preferably 50 to 600 nm, or even 100 to 400 nm. Each of these particles generally contains from 1 to 50 sheets, preferably from 1 to 20 sheets and more preferably from 1 to 10 sheets, or even from 1 to 5 sheets which are capable of being disconnected from one another in the form of independent leaflets, for example during an ultrasound treatment. Carbon black is a colloidal carbon material manufactured industrially by incomplete combustion of heavy petroleum products, which is in the form of carbon spheres and aggregates of these spheres and whose dimensions are generally between 10 and 1000 nm. The process according to the invention makes it possible to disperse efficiently and homogeneously a large quantity of carbon nanofillers in the sulfur-containing material. In addition, it is possible to add, during the compounding step, an additive modifying the rheology of the sulfur-containing material such as sulfur in the molten state, in order to reduce the self-heating of the mixture in the compounding device. Such additives having a fluidifying effect on liquid sulfur are described in application WO 2013/178930. Examples that may be mentioned include dimethyl sulphide, diethyl sulphide, dipropyl sulphide, dibutyl sulphide, dimethyl disulphide, diethyl disulphide, dipropyl disulphide, dibutyl disulphide, and the like. trisulfides, their tetrasulfide counterparts, their pentasulfide counterparts, their hexasulfide counterparts, alone or as mixtures of two or more of them in all proportions. The amount of rheology modifying additive is generally from 0.01% to 5% by weight, preferably from 0.1% to 3% by weight relative to the total weight of the masterbatch. According to a particular aspect of the invention, at least one additive may be introduced into the compounding device. The nature of the additive will be adapted to the end use of the ready-to-use masterbatch. Examples of additives are, for example, accelerators or vulcanization activators, lubricants, pigments, stabilizers, fillers or reinforcements, antistatic agents, fungicides, flame retardants, solvents, ionic conductors, binders, without this list being exhaustive. At the outlet of the compounding device, the masterbatch is in physical form agglomerated, for example in the form of granules. In a final step, the masterbatch can be subjected to a grinding step according to techniques well known to those skilled in the art, so as to obtain a masterbatch in powder form. As apparatus, a hammer mill, a ball mill, an air jet mill, or a planetary mixer may be used. At the end of this step, the desired median diameter D50 will be dependent on the use of the masterbatch, generally between 1 and 60 μm, preferably between 10 and 50 μm, preferably between 10 and 50 μm, 20 i.tm. At the end of the process according to the invention, a masterbatch having well-dispersed carbon nanofillers is obtained. This morphology can be verified in particular by observation with a scanning electron microscope.
    [0006] The invention thus relates to a solid composition comprising from 0.01 to 50% by weight, preferably from 1 to 30% by weight, and more preferably from 5 to 25% by weight of carbon nanofillers dispersed in a sulfur-containing material. . The solid composition may further comprise at least one additive selected from rheology modifiers, vulcanization accelerators or activators, lubricants, pigments, stabilizers, fillers or reinforcements, antistatic agents, fungicides, flame retardants, solvents, ionic conductors, or binders, or their combination. The solid composition can be obtained according to the method described above and can be in powder form after grinding. The powder has particles having a median diameter D 50 of between 1 and 60 μm, preferably between 10 and 50 μm. The composition according to the invention is advantageously used for the manufacture of body seals or sealing, tires, noise plates, static dissipators, internal conductive layer for high and medium voltage cables, or anti-vibration systems such as automobile shock absorbers, or in the manufacture of structural elements of bulletproof vests, OR for the manufacture of Li / S battery electrodes or supercapacitors. The masterbatch that can be obtained according to the process according to the invention OR the solid composition according to the invention is usable in conventional sulfur or more generally sulfur-containing materials, but also it makes it possible to develop new applications requiring reinforcement. mechanical or electronic conductivity brought by the presence of carbon nanofillers within the sulfur material.
