摘要

RUBBER BASED ADHESIVE COMPOSITE AND TIRE WITH TREAD PREPARED THEREWITH A composite of a flexible, releasable backing having a particularly thin, sulfur vulcanizable, carbon black filled, adhesive rubber composition strip in a form of a coating thereon for application to a tire tread splice where the adhesive composition comprises a rubber composition containing a sulfur curative together with carbon black, processing oil, resin and, optionally, rosin oil. The invention is further directed to a method of preparing a tire having a tread with its ends joined together with said adhesive rubber composition strip being applied to the tread splice from its flexible backing and to a tire with tread prepared thereby.
