    Abstract: A rubber composition contains diene-based rubber, silica, a sulfur-containing silane coupling agent, and an amine compound. The amine compound is indole, indigo, and derivatives thereof each of which is represented by a predetermined formula. The content of the silica is 20 to 120 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the diene-based rubber. The content of the sulfur-containing silane coupling agent is 3 to 15 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the silica. The content of the amine compound is 0.5 to 20 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the silica. By the use of the rubber composition with this composition, a tire having improved dispersibility of silica, excellent wet performance, and excellent rolling resistance and showing a suppressed decrease in reinforcing property can be produced.

    Abstract: An adhesive composition contains a block copolymer hot melt adhesive and a vapor releasing vapor corrosion inhibitor mixed with the block copolymer hot melt adhesive, the vapor corrosion inhibitor being in the form of particles suspended in the adhesive composition, the particles preferably having a maximum dimension of less than about 30 microns. One improvement results from inclusion in the adhesive mixture of a titanium and/or zirconium containing coupling agent, either separately or as part of the VCI particles. Another improvement results from blending the adhesive mixture in a continuous process using for example a twin screw extruder. As a result, the adhesive mixture has better uniformity and superior viscosity properties during use.
