First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A tire having at least one member selected from the group consisting of a side reinforcing rubber layer and a bead filler using a rubber composition comprising a rubber component comprising 20% by mass or more of a modified conjugated diene based polymer, satisfying Expression (1) in terms of the elongation X under a stress of 6.5 MPa at 180° C. and the elongation Y under a stress of 6.5 MPa at 25° C. after vulcanization:
1.00≤ X/Y≤ 1.15  (1)

wherein the rubber composition is a rubber composition prepared by mixing the rubber component, a reinforcing filler, a thermosetting resin, a thiuram based vulcanization accelerating agent, a vulcanization accelerating agent other than the thiuram based vulcanization accelerating agent, and a sulfur-containing vulcanizing agent, wherein the rubber composition is prepared by mixing 40 to 100 parts by mass of the reinforcing filler, 1.1 to 2.5 parts by mass of the thiuram based vulcanization accelerating agent, 2.0 to 6.0 parts by mass of the vulcanization accelerating agent other than the thiuram based vulcanization accelerating agent, and 2.0 to 10.0 parts by mass, in terms of a sulfur content, of the sulfur-containing vulcanizing agent based on 100 parts by mass of the rubber component, wherein the thermosetting resin is mixed such that a mass ratio [amount of the thermosetting resin mixed/amount of the reinforcing filler mixed] of 0.001 to 0.043 is obtained.

2. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition has a dynamic tensile storage modulus E′ after vulcanization of 9.0 MPa or more under measurement conditions at an initial strain of 5%, a dynamic strain of 1%, a frequency of 52 Hz, and a measurement temperature of 25° C. and a summation S of tan δ values of 6.0 or less, at 28° C. to 150° C. after vulcanization measured at 1° C. intervals under the measurement conditions.

3. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition satisfies Expression (1) after the tire is left standing at 100° C. for 24 hours.

4. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition after vulcanization has a tan δ of 0.13 or less at an initial strain of 5%, a dynamic strain of 1%, a frequency of 52 Hz, and a measurement temperature of 180° C.

5. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition after vulcanization has a tensile stress at 50% elongation at 180° C. of 6.2 MPa or more.

6. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the modified conjugated diene based polymer is an amine-modified polybutadiene.

7. The tire according to claim 6 , wherein the amine-modified polybutadiene is a primary amine-modified polybutadiene.

8. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of the thiuram based vulcanization accelerating agent mixed is more than the amount of the thermosetting resin mixed.

9. A pneumatic tire having, as a framework, a carcass layer comprising at least one carcass ply,
wherein a reinforcing cord of the carcass ply is an organic fiber cord having an intermediate elongation of 4.2% or less under a load of 1.5 cN/dtex and a toughness of 45 cN·%/dtex or more, and
wherein the tire has at least one member selected from the group consisting of the side reinforcing rubber layer and the bead filler using the rubber composition according to claim 1 .

10. The tire according to claim 9 , wherein
the reinforcing cord is subjected to an adhesive treatment using an adhesive comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of a thermoplastic polymer (A), a thermal reaction-type aqueous urethane resin (B) and an epoxide compound (C) as a one-bath treatment liquid, and a resorcinol-formalin latex adhesive as a two-bath treatment liquid, and
a main chain of the thermoplastic polymer (A) comprises at least one of an ethylenic addition polymer and a urethane polymer having substantially no carbon-carbon double bond having addition reactivity and mainly composed of a straight chain-structure, and has at least one cross-linkable functional group as a pendant group.

11. The tire according to claim 9 , wherein the reinforcing cord has a thermal shrinkage rate of 0.5 to 3.0% after heat treatment.

12. The tire according to claim 9 , wherein the reinforcing cord removed from the tire has an intermediate elongation of 6.0% or less under a load of 1.5 cN/dtex.

13. The tire according to claim 9 , wherein the reinforcing cord has a twist coefficient of 0.30 to 0.50.

14. The tire according to claim 9 , wherein the reinforcing cord is made of polyethylene terephthalate.
