Abstract

A rubber composition includes: in a diene rubber containing a natural rubber, cobalt borate neodecanoate, a phenol-based resin, and a curing agent; a dynamic storage modulus (E′) at 20° C. and a dynamic strain of 2% being 13 MPa or greater; a loss tangent (tan δ) at 60° C. being 0.20 or less; and the number of repetitions until breakage in a constant strain fatigue test at a strain of 60% and 400 rpm being 35000 times or greater.

Claims (11)

1. A rubber composition comprising:

a diene rubber containing a natural rubber,

from 0.3 to 1.5 parts by mass of cobalt borate neodecanoate per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber,

0.5 parts by mass or greater but less than 3.0 parts by mass of a phenol-based resin per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber,

from 0.5 to 5.0 parts by mass of a curing agent per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber, and

from 0.5 to 1.0 parts by mass of cobalt stearate per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber;

a dynamic storage modulus (E′) at 20° C. and a dynamic strain of 2% being 13 MPa or greater;

a loss tangent (tan δ) at 60° C. being 0.20 or less; and

a number of repetitions until breakage in a constant strain fatigue test at a strain of 60% and 400 rpm being 35000 times or greater.

2. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , comprising from 0.1 to 1.0 parts by mass of a sulfenamide-based vulcanization accelerator per 100 parts by mass of the diene rubber.

3. A pneumatic tire comprising a belt layer produced by using the rubber composition described in claim 1 .
