Oxazolidine compound and curable resin composition

Curable resin composition and novel latent curing agent

A pneumatic tire having an air permeation preventive layer comprising a low permeability thermoplastic elastomer composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer having a thermoplastic resin composition as a continuous phase and a rubber composition as a dispersed phase, in which a barrier resin composition is contained, which low permeability thermoplastic elastomer composition has a phase structure in which the barrier resin composition is dispersed in the form of a flat state in the thermoplastic elastomer, is abundant in flexibility, is superior in gas permeation preventive property, and enables the tire to be reduced in weight.

Pneumatic tire with colored thermoplastic elastomer layer adjacent a black-concealing layer

A pneumatic tire having an air permeation preventive layer comprising (A) a thin film of at least one aliphatic polyamide resin wherein at least part of the amide groups thereof are modified with alkoxyalkyl groups, (B) a thin film obtained from the curing a liquid composition containing (i) a multi component copolymer polyamide resin, (ii) a curable resin, and (iii) a curing agent for curing the curable resin, (C) a thin film obtained by coating and cross-linking a polymer composition containing (i) at least-one aliphatic polyamide resin wherein at least part of the amide groups thereof are modified with alkoxyalkyl groups and/or groups having curable unsaturated bonds and (ii) at least one cross-linking agent and/or curable resin other than an acid, or (D) a thin film of a vinylidene chloride-acrylonitrile copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 5 to 50 molar % of acrylonitrile.
