Disclosed are processes for preparing a copolymer, a copolymer prepared by the process, a sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixture, and the use of the sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixture for production of motor vehicle tires. In one embodiment, the monomer has the formula: A-S-P, wherein A is a chemical group containing at least one aliphatic double bond, S is a sulfur atom, and P is a protecting group.

Method for the synthesis of a copolymer, copolymer, rubber mixture, and use thereof

Disclosed are monomers for copolymerization with alkenes, dienes, vinyl compounds, and/or vinylidene compounds, a process for preparing a copolymer, a copolymer prepared by the process, a sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixture, and the use of the sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixture for production of motor vehicle tires. In one embodiment, the monomer has the formula A-S&#x2014;P, wherein A is a chemical group containing at least one C&#x2550;C aliphatic double bond, S is a sulfur atom, and P is a protecting group.

Monomer for copolymerization with alkenes, dienes, vinyl compounds and/or vinylidene compounds, method for the synthesis of a copolymer, copolymer, rubber mixture and use thereof

Disclosed are RAFT agents, a method of polymerizing alkenes, dienes, vinyl compounds, and/or vinylidene compounds using at least one RAFT agent, polymers prepared by the methods, sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixtures prepared by the methods, and motor vehicle tires, cords, belts, or hoses incorporating the sulfur-crosslinkable rubber mixtures. In one embodiment, the RAFT agent has the formula Z&#x2014;C(&#x2550;S)&#x2014;S&#x2014;R&#x2014;S&#x2014;P or P&#x2014;S&#x2014;Z&#x2014;C(&#x2550;S)&#x2014;S&#x2014;R&#x2014;S&#x2014;P, wherein P is a protecting group, and Z and R are typical RAFT Z and R groups.
