Abstract

The rubber composition contains the following component (A), the following component (B), and the following component (C). The component (A) is an ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated polyene copolymer rubber containing an ethylene unit, an α-olefin unit, and a nonconjugated polyene unit, a number of carbon atoms of the α-olefin unit is 3 to 20, a limiting viscosity measured in 135° C. tetralin is 2.8 dl/g to 5 dl/g, a content of the ethylene unit is 70 mol % to 90 mol % (where a total of the content of the ethylene unit and a content of the α-olefin unit in the component (A) is 100 mol %), and a content of the nonconjugated polyene unit is 2 wt % to 20 wt % (where a total amount of the component (A) is 100 wt %); the component (B) is an organic peroxide; and the component (C) is a thermosetting prepolymer.

Claims (8)

1. A rubber composition comprising the following component (A),

the following component (B), and the following component (C), wherein:

the component (A) is an ethylene-α-olefin-nonconjugated polyene copolymer rubber containing an ethylene unit, an α-olefin unit and a nonconjugated polyene unit, a number of carbon atoms of the α-olefin unit is 3 or more and 20 or less, a limiting viscosity measured in 135° C. tetralin is 2.8 dl/g or more and 5 dl/g or less, a content of the ethylene unit is 70 mol % or more and 90 mol % or less (where a total of the content of the ethylene unit and a content of the α-olefin unit in the component (A) is 100 mol %), and a content of the nonconjugated polyene unit is 2% by weight or more and 20% by weight or less (where a total amount of the component (A) is 100 wt % by weight);

the component (B) is an organic peroxide; and

the component (C) is a thermosetting prepolymer, wherein a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of the component (A) is 2 or more and 5 or less.

2. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , wherein the component (C) is at least one thermosetting prepolymer selected from a group consisting of a diallyl phthalate prepolymer and a diallyl isophthalate prepolymer.

3. A molded article obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition according to claim 1 .

4. A molded article obtained by vulcanizing the rubber composition according to claim 2 .
