<p>Short fibers of syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene are utilized in making tires that have improved resistance against heat build-up and improved wear characteristics. The preparation of syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene in fibrous form has traditionally involved an extrusion and stretching step. However, the technique of the present invention circumvents the necessity of hot mill flexing and/or extrusion in making fibrous syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene. The present invention more specifically involves a process for preparing syndiotactic 1,2- polybutadiene fibers directly comprising polymerizing 1,3-butadiene monomer in the presence of (1) a catalyst composition which is comprised of (a) a cobalt compound and (b) an organoaluminum compound; (2) carbon disulfide; and (3) at least one member selected from the group consisting of liquid polymers and naphthenic oils.</p> |
