ADDITIVES FOR RUBBER COMPOSITIONS

摘要

The instant invention relates to rubber compositions comprising silica, an organomercaptosilane having a bulky group and/or a polyether group bound to the silicon atom and a rosin-containing material. The instant invention also relates to tires comprising such rubber compositions, to methods of preparation of such rubber compositions or tires thereof, and to the use of rosin-containing materials for improving the Mooney viscosity and mechanical properties of rubbers comprising the same (e.g. in a tire).
