An anti-ozone protective composition for a crosslinked rubber article; is based on at least one chlorinated elastomer, at least one hydrocarbon solvent and at least one polar aprotic solvent. A rubber article comprises at least one elastomeric surface in contact with air, said surface being completely or partly coated with said composition.

An article is not pneumatic tyre for a motor vehicle and the article's use are that is suitable as at least a part of a pressurizable container or pipeline. The article includes a first side that is, in use, configured to be exposed to a first environment and a second side that is, in use, configured to be exposed to a second environment. At least a part of the article includes rubber-based material that is configured to restrict fluid permeability and that includes lignin that has been treated by hydrothermal carbonization. The rubber-based material or a coating of the rubber-based material forms at least a part of the first side, and the first side is, in use, configured to be exposed to a higher pressure than the second side. A method is for manufacturing the article.
