20100108221 | PNEUMATIC TIRE AND PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A pneumatic tire and a process for manufacturing the same which enable, in the use of a film of a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composition obtained by blending an elastomer in a thermoplastic resin as an air permeation preventive layer, formation of the air permeation preventive layer excelling in gas barrier performance, and molding of the tire through a simple molding operation without generating any unnecessary scraps. For the pneumatic tire of the present invention, a cylindrical molded article composed of a film of a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composition obtained by blending an elastomer in a thermoplastic resin is crushed into a sheet-like laminate; and the sheet-like laminate is used as the air permeation preventive layer. In the manufacturing operation, the sheet-like laminate is wrapped around a making drum so that an unvulcanized tire having the sheet-like laminate as an air permeation preventive layer is molded, and the unvulcanized tire is vulcanized. | 05-06-2010 |

20130078477 | PNEUMATIC TIRE AND LAMINATE - In a pneumatic tire containing as an inner liner material a laminate of a film of a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composition and a layer of a rubber composition for improving the adhesive strength between the film and the rubber composition, the rubber composition comprises 100 parts by weight of a rubber component, 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of a condensate between a compound expressed by formula (1): | 03-28-2013 |
20130087263 | CONSTRUCTION COMPRISING TIE LAYER - A layered structure suitable for use in a pneumatic tire as an innerliner is prepared by directly bonding a fluid permeation prevention film and an adhesive tie layer. Prior to the bonding, the fluid permeation prevention layer is treated to remove any residual plasticizers or oils on the surface of the film. The tie layer comprises 100 weight % of at least one halogenated isobutylene containing elastomer and about 1 to about 20 parts per hundred (phr) of at least one tackifier. The fluid permeation prevention film comprises an elastomeric component dispersed in a vulcanized or partially vulcanized state, as a discontinuous phase, in a matrix of the thermoplastic resin component. The two layers of the layered structure may be separately extruded and then adhered to each other or adhered to each other during a calendaring operation wherein the adhesive tie layer composition is coated onto the treated film. | 04-11-2013 |
20130269850 | PNEUMATIC TIRE - A pneumatic tire includes an inner liner layer formed from a laminate sheet obtained by laminating: a sheet made from a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic resin composition which is a blend of the thermoplastic resin and an elastomer; and a rubber bonded by curing to the thermoplastic resin or the thermoplastic resin composition. The pneumatic tire avoids occurrence of cracks near a splice portion of the inner liner layer after the pneumatic tire starts to be used for driving, and thereby achieves excellent durability. In the tire, an inner liner layer is formed by lap-splicing end portions of a laminate sheet which is obtained by the laminating A sheet with end portions each having a tip subjected to a tip sharpening process is used as the sheet made from the thermoplastic resin or the thermoplastic resin composition which is the blend of the thermoplastic resin and the elastomer. | 10-17-2013 |
20130276971 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING PNEUMATIC TIRE - A method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire having high durability, in which when a tire is manufactured, including: cutting at a predetermined length a laminated sheet obtained by laminating a sheet of a thermoplastic resin composition obtained by blending a thermoplastic resin and an elastomer, and rubber to be cured and adhered to the thermoplastic resin composition; lap splicing end portions of the laminated sheet; and cure-molding the laminated sheet, such that delamination does not occur between the sheet of the thermoplastic resin composition and the tie rubber sheet cured and adhered to the sheet of the thermoplastic resin composition, which collectively constitute the inner liner layer. In this method cure-molding the laminated sheet can form an inner liner layer, and the cutting can be effected by thermal cutting at a temperature equal to or higher than a melting point of the thermoplastic resin. | 10-24-2013 |
20150144246 | Pneumatic Tire - A pneumatic tire is configured in such a manner that at least two carcass layers each have both end portions in the tire width direction extending to bead cores disposed in both bead portions, and the both end portions are wound up from the inner side in the tire width direction of the bead cores to the outer side in the tire width direction, and extend outward in the tire radial direction. In such a pneumatic tire, the carcass layers are formed by thermoplastic sheets, and a rubber layer is disposed at least between adjacent sheets of the thermoplastic sheets. | 05-28-2015 |
20150158336 | Pneumatic Tire - A pneumatic tire comprising: an inner liner layer formed from a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composition obtained by blending a thermoplastic resin with an elastomer; a coating rubber layer; and a tie rubber layer; the pneumatic tire being configured to effectively prevent separation of the inner liner layer. In a pneumatic tire comprising an inner liner layer formed from a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic elastomer composition obtained by blending a thermoplastic resin with an elastomer, a tie rubber layer, and a coating rubber layer, the coating rubber layer and the inner liner layer are disposed in a manner such that the coating rubber layer and the inner liner layer overlap each other, and a rubber composition in at least a region of the coating rubber layer where the coating rubber layer and the inner liner layer overlap has an adhesion to the inner liner layer. | 06-11-2015 |
