A rubber composition comprises at least one resin based on: (A1) at least one aromatic compound resulting from the reaction between a reactant of formula (α): ##STR00001##
where B represents CHO or CH.sub.2OH, (α) and a reactant of formula (β) or ##STR00002##
and (A2) at least one phenolic compound chosen from: (A21) at least one aromatic polyphenol comprising at least one aromatic ring bearing at least two hydroxyl functional groups in the meta position with respect to one another, the two positions ortho to at least one of the hydroxyl functional groups being unsubstituted; and/or (A22) at least one aromatic monophenol comprising at least one six-membered aromatic ring bearing a single hydroxyl functional group, the two positions ortho to the hydroxyl functional group being unsubstituted or at least one position ortho to and the position para to the hydroxyl functional group being unsubstituted.

A polymer with a zwitterionic group and a benzoxazine group and a manufacturing method for the polymer are disclosed. The manufacturing method includes the step below. A polymer containing the benzoxazine group and a precursor containing a Z functional group are reacted, wherein the Z functional group includes ##STR00001##

A metallic or metallized reinforcer has at least a surface of which is at least partially metallic, the at least partially metallic surface being coated with a polybenzoxazine sulfide whose repeating units include at least one unit corresponding to formula (I) or (II):

##STR00001##

in which the two oxazine rings are connected together via a central aromatic group, the benzene ring of which bears one, two, three or four groups of formula —S.sub.x—R in which “x” is an integer from 1 to 8 and R represents hydrogen or a hydrocarbon-based group including 1 to 10 carbon atoms and optionally a heteroatom chosen from O, S, N and P. Such a reinforcement can be used for the reinforcement of a rubber article, in particular a motor vehicle tire.

A carbonaceous material having a pore size (p) ranging from a lower limit (a) to an upper limit (z) and a bulk density (σ) ranging from a lower limit (b) to an upper limit (y) where the comparative variability (g) defined as (y−b)/(z−a) is less than 1. Also, an adsorbent formed therefrom. Also, a chelating agent formed therefrom. Also, a film formed therefrom.

Provided herein are blends of benzoxazine-containing monomers with polymer having one or more leaving groups, such as tosylated polymers (e.g., tosylated polyethylene glycol (PEG)); or blends of benzoxazine-containing monomers with particles/fibers having one or more leaving groups.

Disclosed are curable coating compositions, and methods of cathodic corrosion protection using the compositions. For example, a curable coating composition comprising a mixed salt of magnesium thiodialkanoate, and a method for applying the coating composition, which when applied onto a steel or other ferrous substrate provides an anticorrosive coating, effective for improving resistance to cathodic disbondment.
