Abstract: This invention relates to a rubber composite made from an elastomer polymerized on the surface of a silanized filler, a rubber composition containing such composite and an article such as for example a tire, which has at least one component comprised of such composition. Such reinforcement is applied by polymerizating a conjugated diene hydrocarbon in the presence of a filler silanized with an alkenyl silane. In particular a silanized reinforcing filler is pre-treated with butyl lithium or peroxide catalyst, preferably with butyl lithium, followed by polymerizing a conjugated diene hydrocarbon in the presence of such treated filler via an anionic or free radical polymerization in an organic solvent. Such pre-formed elastomer composite is also contemplated as well as a rubber composition comprised of a blend of such pre-formed composite and at least one additional elastomer. Such filler may be, for example, precipitated silica, carbon black and/or a modified carbon black.
