RUBBER COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING BIS ANIL COMPOUNDS

摘要

The present invention relates to rubber compositions containing an elastomer containing olefinic unsaturation and a bis anil compound of the formula (see above formula) where R1 and R2 may be the same or different and are independently selected from alkyls having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms and X is selected from the group consisting of H; OH; OAlk where Alk is an alkyl having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms; COOH; COO-M+ where M is a metal selected from the group consisting of Zn, Na, Ca and Mg; and y is 0 to 2.
