Rubber composition for a tire tread
Provided is a rubber composition including: per 100 parts by mass of a diene rubber containing a natural rubber and from 10 to 30 mass % of a butadiene rubber, from 50 to 100 parts by mass of a filler containing not less than 20 mass % of carbon black, oil, sulfur (S), and a vulcanization accelerator (A), a mass ratio of the natural rubber to the butadiene rubber (NR/BR) being 0.3 or greater, a compounded ratio of the sulfur to the vulcanization accelerator (S/A) being 0.8 or less, and a total amount of an oil component in the rubber composition containing the oil being from 15 to 25 parts by mass.
1. A rubber composition for a tire tread comprising:
per 100 parts by mass of a diene rubber containing a natural rubber, from 30 to 87 mass % of a styrene-butadiene rubber and from 10 to 30 mass % of a butadiene rubber, from 50 to 100 parts by mass of a filler containing not less than 20 mass % of carbon black having a nitrogen specific surface area of from 130 to 180 m 2 /g, the rubber composition comprising not more than 25 parts by mass of the carbon black per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber;
S parts by mass of sulfur;
A parts by mass of a vulcanization accelerator; and
oil,
a mass ratio of the natural rubber to the butadiene rubber (NR/BR) being 0.3 or greater and 2.5 or less, a compounded ratio of the sulfur to the vulcanization accelerator (S/A) being 0.8 or less, and a total amount of an oil component in the rubber composition containing the oil being from 15 to 25 parts by mass, and
the styrene-butadiene rubber being an emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber and/or a solution-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber having a styrene content of less than 40 mass %;
wherein the styrene-butadiene rubber comprises two different styrene-butadiene rubbers.
