The present invention relates to: a sealing gel having a Mooney viscosity (ML1+4 @ 100 C.) in the range from 100 MU to 170 MU, a sealing compound comprising inventive sealing gel, a process for producing this sealing compound, the use of sealing gels for improving viscoelastic properties in sealing compounds, and the use of sealing gel-containing sealing compounds for improving rolling resistance properties in tyres having sealing layers.

The present invention aims to provide a lining composition which overcomes the problems such as environmental problems (e.g. marine pollution) and VOC problem and which has a good cure rate. We have found that this can be achieved by a composition containing a vinyl ester resin as a prepolymer component and an aliphatic or alicyclic polyfunctional allyl ester compound as a crosslinking agent.
