Rubber composition containing hydroxyl terminated liquid polymer and tire with sidewall thereof

摘要

This invention relates to a rubber composition comprised of a combination of cis 1,4-polybutadiene and at least one liquid hydroxyl terminated polyalkylene polymer together with a halogenated copolymer of isobutylene and p-methylstyrene and a minor amount of at least one conjugated diene-based elastomer, preferably cis 1,4-polyisoprene. The rubber composition contains particulate reinforcement as carbon black or as carbon black and silica together with a coupling agent. The invention also relates to a tire having a sidewall of such rubber composition.
