Abstract: A rubber composition for a tire tread chimney component includes a sulfur-vulcanizable elastomer and an electrically conductive polymer. The rubber composition is further defined by an absence of electrically conductive carbon black. The sulfur-vulcanizable elastomer is selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, polybutadiene, polyisoprene, styrene butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber, and combinations thereof. The sulfur-vulcanizable elastomer and the electrically conductive polymer are substantially evenly mixed together. In the tire, and upon curing, the tire tread chimney component provides a dissipative pathway for static electricity from the tire to the ground in operation.

Abstract: A chlorinated rubber composition which is resistant to various fluids such as transmission fluids comprises a blend of a chlorinated polyethylene elastomer, an ethylene acrylic elastomer and/or polyacrylic rubbers, and optionally a chlorosulfonated polyethylene. The rubber composition has many uses such as a tube and generally contains various additives such as fillers, plasticizers, vulcanizing agents, and the like. A heat resistant rubber composition comprises a blend of a chlorinated polyethylene elastomer, an ethylene-acrylic elastomer and/or polyacrylic rubbers, an ethylene-octene copolymer, and an ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer, and the same can be used as a cover or jacket as on the above chlorinated rubber tube.
