Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a pneumatic tire comprising at least one component, the at least one component comprising a rubber composition, the rubber composition comprising a diene based elastomer and from 1 to 30 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of elastomer (phr), of a polyketone short fiber having a length ranging from 0.5 to 20 mm having a weight ranging from 0.5 to 5 decitex, and from 1 to 30 phr of an epoxidized polyisoprene having a number-average molecular weight of 5000 to 100000.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a tire with a circumferential rubber tread comprised of a rubber composition for promotion of reduced internal heat build-up. The invention particularly relates to truck tires.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a pneumatic tire including at least one component. The component includes a rubber composition. The rubber composition includes a diene based elastomer and from 1 to 100 parts by weight of a metallized organic short fiber, per 100 parts by weight of elastomer. The organic short fibers having a length from 1 mm to 5 mm. Both the length and the ends of the short fibers are completely coated with a layer of metal or metal alloy.
