Abstract

A rubber composition includes a total of 45 to 65 parts by mass of an aromatic modified terpene resin having a softening point of 100° C. or higher and an oil per 100 parts by mass of a rubber component formed from 20 to 40 mass % of a butadiene rubber and from 60 to 80 mass % of another diene rubber containing an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber E-SBR1 having a bonded styrene content of 30 mass % or less and an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber E-SBR2 having a bonded styrene content of 35 mass % or greater; an amount of the E-SBR1 being from 85 to 92 mass % per 100 mass % of the emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber; and a ratio (WB/WT) of the compounded amount of the butadiene rubber (WB) to the compounded amount of the aromatic modified terpene resin (WT) being from 0.5 to 3.0.

Claims (8)

1. A rubber composition for a tire, the rubber composition comprising

a total of 45 to 65 parts by mass of an aromatic modified terpene resin having a softening point of 100° C. or higher and an oil per 100 parts by mass of a rubber component containing from 20 to 40 mass % of a butadiene rubber and from 60 to 80 mass % of another diene rubber;

the rubber composition comprising 90 mass % or greater of an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber per 100 mass % of the other diene rubber;

the emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber being formed from an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber E-SBR1 having a bonded styrene content of 30 mass % or less and an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber E-SBR2 having a bonded styrene content of 35 mass % or greater;

an amount of the E-SBR1 being from 85 to 92 mass % per 100 mass % of the emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber;

a ratio (WB/WT) of a compounded amount of the butadiene rubber (WB) to a compounded amount of the aromatic modified terpene resin (WT) being from 0.5 to 3.0; and

from 50 to 120 parts by mass of filler containing silica and carbon black per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component, the filler containing 10 mass % or greater of silica having a CTAB (cetyl trimethylammonium bromide) specific surface area of 120 to 180 m 2 /g.

2. A pneumatic tire using the rubber composition for a tire described in claim 1 .
