A pneumatic tire, comprising adhesive sealant applied onto the inner surface thereof, wherein an air barrier membrane is disposed on the inner surface of the tire at least at a tread part, a space part is formed between the air barrier membrane and the inner surface of the tire, and the adhesive sealant is stacked on the space part side surface of the air barrier membrane, whereby an increase in weight can be minimized and a workability in handling the tire can be increased.

Pneumatic tire

A low permeable hose having at least a refrigerant barrier layer and a rubber layer is provided. The barrier layer is a laminate film having a structure such that resin layers sandwich a metal layer therebetween and having an elongation at breakage of 10% or more. The outermost layer of the resin layer may be an adhesive layer composed of a phenol resin based composition. The hose can be produced by heating the refrigerant barrier layer and the rubber layer to a temperature no lower than the melting point of a resin that constitutes the resin layers to melt the resin and vulcanizing said rubber layer, or, laminating an adhesive layer composed of a phenol resin based composition and the rubber layer, thereby splicing the refrigerant barrier layer and the rubber layer.

Low permeable hose and method for producing the same

A pneumatic tire having improved rolling resistance and increased resistance to separation between coat rubber and steel cords embedded therein. The steel cord is formed from two intertwisted steel filaments containing 0.80-0.92 weight percent of carbon. The rubber coat has 100% elastic modulus of 35-55 kg/cm.sup.2. Each of the cords and the rubber coat has a specified mean cross-sectional area (Sa, Sb). The cords are spaced apart from each other by a specified distance across the junction of adjacent belts.
