摘要:
A tire, which has an improved grip on wet ground, includes a tread formed of at least a rubber composition. The rubber composition includes: 20 to 100 phr of a first diene elastomer bearing at least one SiOR function, with R being hydrogen or a hydrocarbon radical, and with phr referring to parts by weight per hundred parts of elastomer; 100 to 160 phr of a reinforcing inorganic filler; and a plasticizing system. The plasticizing system includes: a content A of between 5 and 60 phr of a hydrocarbon resin having a Tg above 20° C.; and a content B of between 5 and 60 phr of a liquid plasticizing agent. A total content A+B is greater than 45 phr. The rubber composition optionally includes 0 to 80 phr of a second diene elastomer.
摘要:
A tire, the tread of which comprises a rubber composition comprising a diene elastomer, such as, for example, an SBR or BR elastomer, a poly(vinyl ester) resin, at a content preferably of between 5 and 50 phr, and a reinforcing filler, such as silica and/or carbon black. The poly(vinyl ester) resin is in particular a vinyl ester homopolymer or copolymer of formula R—C(═O)O—CH═CH2, at least one of the vinyl ester monomers of which comprises a radical R having more than 2 carbon atoms, preferably from 4 to 20 carbon atoms. Such a composition makes it possible to improve the wet grip of the treads of the tire and also the processability of such a composition.

A layer of cellular material forms a running layer (14A) of a tread (14) in which tread pattern elements (20, 22, 26) are made. In order to form the cellular material, an uncured blank is provided with a mass of material comprising p,p′-oxybis(benzenesulphonyl hydrazide) that forms a pore-forming agent. The uncured blank is placed in a vulcanization mold (28) comprising molding elements (30, 32, 34). At least 95% of the molding elements (30, 32, 34) each satisfy the following two conditions: a) the molding element (30, 32, 34) is separated from at least one other molding element (30, 32, 34) by a distance, expressed in millimetres, of less than or equal to DM=6.85+0.0065 T3, T, greater than or equal to 3 phr, being the amount of p,p′-oxybis(benzenesulphonyl hydrazide) in the mass of material intended to form the cellular material,b) the molding element (30, 32, 34) is intended to form a tread pattern element (20, 22, 26) having a depth at least equal to 80% of the thickness of the running layer (14A).

Radial tire having: a crown surmounted by a tread provided with at least one radially outer elastomer layer intended to come into contact with the road when the tire is rolling; two non-stretchable beads, two sidewalls connecting the beads to the tread, a carcass reinforcement passing into the two sidewalls and anchored in the beads; a crown reinforcement or belt positioned circumferentially between the carcass reinforcement and the tread; a radially inner elastomer layer, (tread “sublayer”), having a formulation different from the formulation of the radially outer elastomer layer, and positioned between the radially outer layer and the belt, wherein the sublayer comprises a rubber composition having at least from 30 to 100 phr of a nitrile/butadiene rubber having a content of butadiene units of between 40% and 90% by weight and more than 30 phr of a reinforcing filler. This sublayer limits the migration of plasticizers in the elastomer layer of the tread towards the inner elastomer compositions of the crown.

Radial tire having: a crown surmounted by a tread having at least one radially outer elastomer layer which contacts the road when the tire is rolling; two inextensible beads, two sidewalls connecting the beads to the tread, a carcass reinforcement passing into the two sidewalls and anchored in the beads; a crown reinforcement or belt placed circumferentially between the carcass reinforcement and the tread; a radially inner elastomer sublayer, having a formulation different from the formulation of the radially outer elastomer layer, and placed between the radially outer layer and the belt, wherein said sublayer contains a rubber composition having at least one diene elastomer, a reinforcing filler and more than 10 phr of a hydrogenated thermoplastic styrene copolymer, which makes possible substantial improvement in rolling resistance and handling performance compromise.
摘要:
A reinforced rubber composition, used for the manufacture of treads of tyres, includes (a) a functionalized diene elastomer selected from elastomers that are chain-end functionalized, coupled, or star-branched by a group containing a polar functional group having at least one oxygen atom and block elastomers having at least one polar block, (b) glycerol, and (c) a reinforcing filler that includes an inorganic filler. The rubber composition may impart a low rolling resistance to the tyre treads.

A tire tread comprising a rubber composition based on at least: (i) a diene elastomer; (ii) more than 60 phr of a reinforcing inorganic filler; (iii) between 2 and 15 phr of a coupling agent; and (iv) between 4 and 12 phr of a bismaleimide compound. This tread has, after mechanical running-in of the tire comprising it, a rigidity gradient which increases radially from the surface towards the inside of the tread, imparting to the tire an improved compromise of grip/behavior properties. Use of such a tread for the manufacturing or recapping of tires. Tires comprising such a tread.
