A rubber composition is provided, which comprises: (1) 100 parts by mass of a hydrogenated acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer rubber having high rate of hydrogenation; (2) 1 to 10 parts by mass of an organic peroxide; (3) 0.1 to 15 parts by mass of 2,4-dimercapto-6-substituted-1,3,5-triazine; and (4) 1 to 100 parts by mass of an organic peroxide-crosslinkable polymer having an epoxy group. The rubber composition has high adhesiveness to a metal, high modulus, high set resistance and high heat resistance, thereby being capable of suitably utilizing for composites of rubber and metal, such as belts, tires, rolls, and molded goods, particularly, for composite rubber products of the rubber composition and a brass or bronze-plated steel plate.

A composite comprised of a nitrile group-containing highly saturated copolymer rubber and a fibrous material, which copolymer rubber is a product obtained by hydrogenating the conjugated diene portion of an unsaturated nitrile-conjugated diene copolymer. The highly saturated copolymer rubber has an alkylthio group having 12 to 16 carbon atoms, which include at least three tertiary carbon atoms, and having a sulfur atom which is directly bound to at least one of the tertiary carbon atoms; and the copolymer rubber further has a Mooney viscosity of 15 to 200 and an iodine value not larger than 80. This composite is useful for a belt.
