Abstract: Provided is a crosslinking rubber composition containing: a rubber-like polymer (A) having an iodine value of 10 to 250 (g/100 g), comprising 3% by mass or more of an ethylene structure and less than 10% by mass of a vinyl aromatic monomer block, containing a nitrogen atom, and having a modification ratio measured by column adsorption GPC of 40% by mass or more; and a crosslinking agent (B).

Abstract: A pneumatic tire which comprises a pair of right and left bead portions, a carcass layer disposed extending between the bead portions, a tread portion arranged at an outside of the carcass layer in a radial direction of the tire, a pair of side wall portions arranged at right and left sides of the tread portion and at least one pair of rubber members selected from a pair of rubber members constituted with a rigid rubber and arranged in the bead portions and a pair of rubber members disposed in the side wall portions, wherein at least one pair of rubber members selected from a pair of rubber members arranged in the bead portions and a pair of rubber members disposed in the side wall portions are constituted with rubber composition having a minimum value of a dynamic storage modulus within a temperature range of 200 to 250° C. which is 75% of a dynamic storage modulus at 50° C. or more.

Abstract: The present invention provides a rubber composition improved in the heat resistance, which is suitable for a reinforcing rubber for tire sidewall portions and a bead filler rubber. Also, provided is a pneumatic tire produced using the rubber composition.

Abstract: The present invention provides a rubber composition and a pneumatic tire using the rubber composition. A rubber composition comprises silica in an amount of 10 to 85 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of natural rubber and/or diene synthetic rubbers. A polysulfide silane coupling agent having a specific distribution of sulfur reacts with a trivalent phosphorus compound such that a content of high polysulfide in the polysulfide silane coupling agent is reduced. The rubber composition further comprises 1 to 20% by weight, based on an amount of the silica, of the polysulfide silane coupling agent having a specific distribution of sulfur such that a content of high polysulfide component is small. The pneumatic tire has an excellent low heat buildup property.
