Abstract

A pneumatic vehicle tire has a radial carcass, a sulfur-impregnated rubber mixture which contains 70 to 100 phr (parts per weight related to 100 parts per weight of the entire types of rubber in the mixture) of natural rubber, up to 30 phr of at least one polybutadiene, up to 15 phr of at least one soot, 20 to 100 phr of at least one silica, at least one silane coupling agent and one adhesive system. In order to lengthen the service life of the pneumatic vehicle tire, the rubber mixture is the carcass rubber coating and the silica has a CTAB number according to ASTM D 3765 of more than 100 m 2 /g.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A pneumatic tire having a radial carcass made from a sulfur-crosslinked rubber mixture which comprises:
from 70 to 100 phr (parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of all of the rubbers in the mixture) of natural rubber;
from 0 to 30 phr of at least one polybutadiene;
from 0 to 15 phr of at least one carbon black;
from 20 to 100 phr of at least one silica;
at least one silane coupling agent; and,
an adhesive system,

wherein the rubber mixture is a carcass rubber mixture and the silica has a CTAB number above 100 m 2 /g in accordance with ASTM D3765; and,
wherein the rubber mixture comprises less than 15 phr of processing aid.

2. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one polybutadiene is selected from the group consisting of a polybutadiene having more than 95% by weight cis content and a functionalized Li-polybutadiene.

3. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rubber mixture comprises from 40 to 80 phr of the at least one silica.

4. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one silica has a CTAB number above 130 m 2 /g in accordance with ASTM D3765.

5. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one silica is a high-dispersibility silica.

6. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the radial carcass comprises metallic reinforcement.

7. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the adhesive system is a steel cord adhesive system comprising an organic cobalt salt, a reinforcing resin, and more than 2.5 phr of sulfur.

8. The pneumatic tire as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the pneumatic tire is a commercial-vehicle tire.
