The invention relates to the use of specific aminosilyl monomers in the manufacture of elastomeric polymers, especially rubber. The invention specifically relates to a process for preparing an elastomeric polymer, involving the copolymerization of the aminosilyl monomers, the elastomeric polymer thus obtained or obtainable, non-vulcanized and vulcanized polymer compositions comprising the elastomeric polymer, and articles comprising one or more components formed from the vulcanized polymer composition.

Use of specific aminosilyl monomers in the manufacture of rubber

Novel polymerizable multivinylaminosilanes which are useful as branching agents for synthetic and natural rubber are described. The compounds can be used in the polymerization of conjugated diene monomers, optionally together with aromatic vinyl monomers, thus producing polymers, which can favorably be used in rubber articles such as tires.

Multivinylaminosilanes as branching agents for functionalized elastomeric polymers

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a branched elastomeric polymer by polymerization of a conjugated diene in the presence of a specific branching agent and a specific stabilizing compound. The branched elastomeric polymer exhibits improved storage stability, as reflected by a constant, or less variable, polymer viscosity over time and with reduced temperature dependence.

Silane-mediated enhancement of rubber storage stability

The present invention relates to novel aminosilane-functionalized diene compounds of the following Formula I: wherein The diene compounds are useful as modifying monomers in the polymerization of conjugated diene monomers.

Aminosilane-functionalized dienes for use in functionalization of elastomeric polymers

The invention relates to an elastomeric polymer composition and its preparation. The polymer composition includes, in combination, a single terminally modified conjugated diene (co)polymer and a dual terminally modified conjugated diene (co)polymer. The polymer composition is useful in the preparation of a vulcanized and, thus, crosslinked elastomeric composition having relatively low hysteresis loss, good grip and low heat build-up properties.
