Abstract
The rubber composition of the present invention is prepared by mixing 10 to 200 parts by mass of silica and 1 to 30 parts by mass of a silane compound having sulfur atom, which has a specific structure such that an organooxysilyl group is present at both ends of the molecule and sulfide or a polysulfide is present at the central portion of the molecule, with 100 parts by mass of a polymer. The rubber composition of the present invention has a small viscosity in the unvulcanized condition and provides excellent dispersion of silica. When this composition is used as a material for a tire tread, a tire exhibiting excellent abrasion resistance, a small rolling resistance and excellent braking property and steering stability on wet roads, can be obtained.
