PROCESS FOR PRODUCING MODIFIED DIENE POLYMER RUBBER

摘要

There is provided a process for producing a modified diene polymer rubber comprising the steps of: (1) polymerizing a conjugated diene monomer or a combination thereof with an aromatic vinyl monomer in a hydrocarbon solvent, in the presence of an alkali metal catalyst, to form an alkali metal end-carrying active polymer, and (2) reacting the alkali metal end-carrying active polymer with a silane compound defined by a specific formula.
