  • Publication number: 20020052435
    Abstract: An objective of the invention is to provide a conjugated diene-based rubber having a specific composition and a method of producing the same, an oil extended rubber using the same, as well as a rubber composition capable of being converted into a vulcanized rubber which has a low rolling resistance, an excellent wearing resistance and the like, and is useful, for example, as a tire or the like. A conjugated diene-based rubber in the invention has a glass transition point of −60 to 0° C., an olefinically unsaturated nitrile monomer unit randomly contains in its molecular chain, its repeating units consists of 9 to 30% by mass of an olefinically unsaturated nitrile monomer unit such as acrylonitrile, 10 to 50% by mass of an aromatic vinyl monomer unit such as styrene and 20 to 81% by mass of a conjugated diene monomer unit such as 1,3-butadiene, and its Mooney viscosity [ML1+4(100° C.)] is 20 to 200.

  • Patent number: 4675362
    Abstract: A multi-component copolymer rubber consisting essentially of (A) 20 to 69.5% by weight of a cyano-substituted alkyl (meth)acrylate, (B) 30 to 79.5% by weight of an alkyl acrylate, (C) 0.5 to 10% by weight of a crosslinkable monomer and (D) 0 to 10% by weight of other ethylenically unsaturated monomer copolymerizable with (A), (B) and (C), excels in heat resistance, ozone resistance, sour gasoline resistance and sour gasohol resistance. There properties of said multi-component copolymer rubber can further be improved by incorporating into the copolymer rubber a crosslinking agent, a metal salt, a vinylidene fluoride polymer, a vinyl chloride resin or other multi-component copolymer rubber.
