Prepared reinforced elastomer, elastomer composite and tire having component thereof

摘要

Preparation of an elastomer which contains a dispersion of filler reinforcement by forming a filler reinforcement in-situ within the elastomer host, the resulting elastomer/filler composite and tire having component which contains such reinforced elastomer. The invention includes a rubber composition of at least two elastomers wherein one of said elastomers is a pre-formed composite of elastomer and in-situ formed filler reinforcement. A tire having a component of such rubber composition, particularly a tire tread, is specifically contemplated.
