Abstract

Provided is a rubber composition having excellent low heat generating properties. The rubber composition of the present disclosure contains a rubber component, a filler containing silica, and a silane coupling agent, where the rubber component contains a conjugated diene-based polymer modified with a modifier containing a compound represented by the formula (1), and the silane coupling agent is a compound represented by the formula (2).

Claims (10)

1. A rubber composition, comprising a rubber component, a filler containing silica, and a silane coupling agent, wherein

the rubber component contains a conjugated diene-based polymer modified with a modifier containing a compound represented by the formula (1), and

the silane coupling agent is a compound represented by the formula (2),

where R1 to R8 are each an independent alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms; L1 and L2 are each an independent alkylene group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 2 to 4,

where in the formula, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently a group selected from —O—C j H 2j+1 , —(O—C k H 2k —) a —O—C m H 2m+1 , and —C n H 2n+1 , j, m and n are each independently 0 to 12, k and a are each independently 1 to 12, and R 4 has 1 to 12 carbon atoms and is a linear, branched, or cyclic saturated or unsaturated group selected from alkylene group, cycloalkylene group, cycloalkylalkylene group, cycloalkenylalkylene group, alkenylene group, cycloalkenylene group, cycloalkylalkenylene group, cycloalkenylalkenylene group, arylene group, and aralkylene group.

2. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , wherein a conjugated diene-based polymer of the modified conjugated diene-based polymer is styrene butadiene rubber.

3. The rubber composition according to claim 1 , wherein the compound represented by the formula (1) of the modifier is any one of the formulas (1a) to (1e)

4. A tire, using the rubber composition according to claim 1 .

5. The rubber composition according to claim 2 , wherein the compound represented by the formula (1) of the modifier is any one of the formulas (1a) to (1e)

6. A tire, using the rubber composition according to claim 2 .
