Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a pneumatic tire having excellent durability. Provided is a pneumatic tire including a sidewall and a carcass, the sidewall being produced from a rubber composition for a sidewall which has a specific sulfur content, the carcass being produced from a carcass cord covered with a rubber composition for a carcass topping, and the sulfur contents of the rubber composition for a sidewall and the rubber composition for a carcass topping satisfying a specific relationship. Provided is a pneumatic tire including a clinch and a carcass, the clinch being produced from a rubber composition for a clinch which has a specific sulfur content, the carcass being produced from a carcass cord covered with a rubber composition for a carcass topping, and the sulfur contents of the rubber composition for a clinch and the rubber composition for a carcass topping satisfying a specific relationship.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A pneumatic tire comprising a sidewall and a carcass, the sidewall being produced from a rubber composition for a sidewall which contains a rubber component and has a sulfur content of greater than 1.41 parts by mass but less than 2.5 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component, the carcass being produced from a carcass cord covered with a rubber composition for a carcass topping which contains a rubber component, and the sulfur contents of the rubber composition for a sidewall and the rubber composition for a carcass topping satisfying the following relationship: −0.2<(the sulfur content per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component in the rubber composition for a carcass topping)-(the sulfur content per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component in the rubber composition for a sidewall) <1.1. 2. The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition for a sidewall has a sulfur content of greater than 1.61 parts by mass but less than 2.3 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component. 3. The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition for a carcass topping has a sulfur content of greater than 1.91 parts by mass but less than 3.5 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component. 4. The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition for a sidewall has a process oil content of 10 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component. 5. The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition for a sidewall has an alkylphenol-sulfur chloride condensate content of 0.2 to 6 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component. 6. The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber composition for a sidewall contains butadiene rubber synthesized using a rare-earth catalyst.
