摘要:
This invention is based upon the discovery that cyclized polyisoprene polymers can be incorporated into tire tread compounds to improve traction, treadwear, and resistance to tear. It is further based upon the discovery that cyclized polyisoprene polymers can be blended with halobutyl rubber and/or natural rubber and can be utilized in tire innerliner formulations. The present invention more specifically discloses a tire which is comprised of a generally toroidal-shaped carcass with an outer circumferential tread, two spaced beads, at least one ply extending from bead to bead and sidewalls extending radially from and connecting said tread to said beads, wherein said tread is adapted to be ground-contacting, and wherein said tread is comprised of a sulfur cured rubber composition which is comprised of about 5 phr to about 50 phr of cyclized polyisoprene and about 50 phr to about 95 phr of at least one other rubbery polymer. The present invention further discloses a tire which is comprised of a generally toroidal-shaped carcass with an outer circumferential tread, two spaced beads, an innerliner, at least one ply extending from bead to bead and sidewalls extending radially from and connecting said tread to said beads, wherein said innerliner is comprised of a sulfur cured rubber composition which is comprised of about 5 phr to about 50 phr of cyclized polyisoprene and about 50 phr to about 95 phr of at least one other rubbery polymer selected from the group consisting of natural rubber and halobutyl rubber.
摘要:
This invention relates to a tire tread compound that is easily processable which can be used to improve the treadwear, rolling resistance and traction characteristics of tires. The tire tread compounds of this invention are a blend of tin-coupled polybutadiene, high vinyl polybutadiene and natural rubber. This blend of low glass transition temperature rubber and high glass transition temperature rubber is surprisingly easy to process which makes the concept of this invention commercially feasible. Thus, the tire tread compounds of this invention can be utilized in making tires having greatly improved traction characteristics and treadwear without sacrificing rolling resistance. These improved properties may be due, in part, to better interaction and compatibility with carbon black and/or silica fillers. The polybutadiene in the blend can be asymmetrical tin-coupled to further improve the cold flow characteristics of the rubber blend. Asymmetrical tin coupling in general also leads to better processability and other beneficial properties. This invention more specifically discloses a tire tread rubber composition which is comprised of (1) from about 20 phr to about 60 phr of tin-coupled polybutadiene rubber, (2) from about 20 phr to about 60 phr of a rubber selected from the group consisting of natural rubber and synthetic polyisoprene and (3) from about 5 phr to about 40 phr of high vinyl polybutadiene rubber.

The present invention relates to a pneumatic rubber tire having an integral innerliner of a sulfur cured rubber compound. The rubber compound is characterized by, based on 100 parts of ruber, (A) from about 70 to 98 parts by weight of bromobutyl rubber, (B) from 2 to 30 parts by weight of a trans 1,4-polybutadiene rubber having at least a 65 percent trans 1,4-content; and (C) from 0 to 28 parts by weight of a rubber selected from the group consisting of an acrylonitrile/butadiene copolymer, styrene/butadiene copolymer, natural rubber and mixtures thereof.
摘要:
This invention relates to a pneumatic rubber tire having a rubber sidewall with at least a portion of its outer surface being composed of white rubber devoid of carbon black reinforcement and composed of an elastomer composition prepared as a combination of EPDM, chlorobutyl rubber, diene-based elastomers and liquid EPDM. The liquid EPDM component replaces at least a portion of a traditionally used naphthenic/paraffinic processing oil.
