摘要:
A tire tread comprising a rubber composition based on at least a diene elastomer, a reinforcing inorganic filler such as silica, an inorganic filler/elastomer coupling agent and carbon black in a very small quantity, in an amount of between 0.05 and 2.0 phr. The tires comprising such a tread have, after photo-oxidation treatment of the latter, a significantly improved grip on wet roads. Such photo-oxidizing treatment, in particular under visible UV radiation, may advantageously be performed during the manufacture of the treads or tires itself, in the uncured state or after vulcanization, or even later on in the life of said tires.
摘要:
A tire tread comprising a plurality of elements in relief (1) comprising a contact face (2) intended to come into contact with the roadway during travel and lateral faces (13, 14, 15, 16), the intersection of each lateral face with the contact face forming a ridge (23, 24, 25, 26). The tread also comprises a plurality of cutouts (3, 4) in the form of grooves and/or incisions, said cutouts being defined by facing main faces. Each tread pattern element (1) is formed with at least one rubber mix (referred to as “base mix”). This tread, viewed in section in a plane containing the thickness of this tread, has at least one face defining at least one cutout covered at least in part with a second rubber mix, referred to as “covering mix”, this part having covering mix extending when new over a height Hr at least equal to 30% of the height H of the face, wherein at least one first base mix opens on to the contact face (2) when new or at the latest after wear at most equal to 10% of the height Hr. The base mix has an amount of carbon black greater than 2 phr of black and the covering mix has an amount of carbon black greater than 0 phr and at most equal to 2 phr.

摘要:
The tire (10B) comprises a tread (12) including a running layer (14) which is intended to come into contact with the ground when the tire (10B) rolls on the ground, and a sublayer (16) located radially inwards from the running layer (14). The tread (12) comprises at least one fluid passage (22) between the sublayer (16) and the air surrounding the tire (10B). The sublayer (16) comprises a cellular material. The fluid passage (22) comprises an element chosen from a groove (20) and a cut (26), formed in the running layer (14) and extended by at least one well (28) acting as a radial extension of the element, formed between the groove (20) and/or the cut (26) and the sublayer (16). Each well (28) forms a localized part of the fluid passage (22).
摘要:
A self-sealing elastomer composition that can be used especially as a puncture-resistant layer in an inflatable article, comprising: as predominant elastomer, an unsaturated diene elastomer; a thermoplastic hydrocarbon plasticizer resin with a weight content of between 30 and 90 phr; a liquid plasticizer, the Tg (glass transition temperature) of which is below −20° C., with a weight content between 0 and 60 phr; and 0 to less than 30 phr of a filler. Also disclosed is an article such as a tire provided with the puncture-resistant layer comprising the self-sealing elastomer composition. The puncture-resistant layer is advantageously combined with an airtight layer, for example based on butyl rubber, so as to form, in the inflatable article, a puncture-resistant airtight laminate.

A tyre, which has an improved grip on wet ground, includes a tread formed of at least a rubber composition. The rubber composition includes: from 50 to 100 phr of a copolymer based on styrene and butadiene, e.g., a styrene/butadiene copolymer (SBR), with phr referring to parts by weight per hundred parts of elastomer; from 100 to 150 phr of a reinforcing inorganic filler, e.g., silica; and a plasticizing system. The plasticizing system includes: a content A of between 10 and 60 phr of a thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin exhibiting a Tg of greater than 20° C.; and a content B of between 10 and 60 phr of a liquid plasticizing agent. A total content A+B is greater than 50 phr. Optionally, the rubber composition includes from 0 to 50 phr of another copolymer, e.g., a diene elastomer such as a polybutadiene or natural rubber.

Tire tread comprising a rubber composition, the said composition comprising at least one diene elastomer, one reinforcing filler and one plasticizing system, characterized in that the said plasticizing system comprises, in combination: a plasticizing hydrocarbon resin, the glass transition temperature of which is greater than 0° C.; and a carboxylic acid diester corresponding to the formula (I): R—OOC—(CH2)n—COO—R in which n is included within a range from 1 to 15 and the R radicals, which are identical or different, represent a hydrocarbon radical. The invention also relates to the use of such a tread in the manufacture or the retreading of tires exhibiting a substantially improved compromise in properties with regard to the wear resistance and the wet grip.

摘要:
A tire tread includes a plurality of elements in relief (rib and/or block) having lateral faces, and a contact face intended to come into contact with the roadway during travel. The intersection of each lateral face with the contact face forms a ridge. The tread also includes a plurality of cutouts each defined by opposing main faces. Each tread pattern element is formed with at least one base mix. As viewed in section in a plane containing the thickness of this tread, at least one face defining at least one cutout is formed at least in part with a covering mix. The base mix exhibits a gripping action on wet ground which is lower than a gripping action of the covering mix on the same ground.
