Provided is a tire inner liner capable of reducing rolling resistance during tire driving. The present invention provides a tire inner liner that consists of a material containing a thermoplastic elastomer composition consisting of a thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic-resin component and an elastomer component, the tire inner liner being characterized in that the ratio of the dynamic storage modulus of the material at 60° C. with respect to the dynamic storage modulus of the material at 0° C. is 0.01-0.3.

Provided is a tire inner liner with which it is possible to suppress resistance to flex fatigue during tire travel and peeling failures at high temperatures, and also reduce rolling resistance at low temperatures. A tire inner liner comprising a material that contains a thermoplastic elastomer composition, which is constituted from a thermoplastic resin or thermoplastic-resin component and an elastomer component, said tire inner liner characterized in that, in a temperature dependent curve of tan δ of the material, the maximum value of tan δ occurs between 20° C. and 70° C. inclusive.

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a rubber composition having superiorly low air permeability and also exhibiting low adhesion to metal members. To achieve the object, a rubber composition includes: a rubber component (A); a layered or tabular clay mineral (B); and a workability-improving agent (C), wherein the rubber composition contains no stearic acid (D) or contains no more than 0.1 parts by mass of stearic acid (D) per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component (A).

Crumb rubber obtained from recycled tires is subjected to an interlinked substitution process. The process utilizes a reactive component that interferes with sulfur bonds. The resulting treated rubber exhibits properties similar to those of the virgin composite rubber structure prior to being granulated, and is suitable for use in fabricating new tires, engineered rubber articles, and asphalt rubber for use in waterproofing and paving applications.

Methods for producing a polymer-containing coating upon a cured tire inner liner using a coating composition of specified composition are provided. Also provided are methods for producing a tire comprising a cured inner liner (with a polymer-containing coating upon its radially inward-facing surface) and at least one component positioned radially inward of the cured inner liner. Tires containing a cured inner liner (with a polymer-containing coating upon its radially inward-facing surface) and at least one component positioned radially inward of the cured inner liner are also disclosed.

A tire for a civil engineering vehicle the endurance of which has been improved by the addition of an anti-creep layer (30) with a thickness E2 interposed between the airtight inner layer (20), with a thickness E1, and the reinforcer coating layer (46) of the carcass reinforcement (40), with a thickness E3. The thicknesses E1, E2 and E3, being measured in millimetres in a shoulder region forming the transition between the crown and each sidewall of the tire, satisfy the following equations: 2≤E1≤4; 6≤E2+E3 and E1/E2≥0.6. In addition, the viscoelastic loss P60 of the elastomeric mixture M2 of the anti-creep layer (30) is at most equal to 20%.

Methods for treating a cured inner liner as well as treated, cured inner liners resulting from such methods are disclosed. Also disclosed are tires containing the treated inner liners. The methods include treatment of the lower surface of inner liner surface with a rubber-containing liquid to produce a rubber-containing film thereupon.

Processes for producing a sealant layer-tire inner liner combination as well as a sealant layer-containing tire and related processes involving the sealant layer-containing tire are disclosed. The sealant layer is adhered to the tire inner liner, has a thickness of 2-8 mm and comprises 100 parts of at least one rubber, 300-500 phr of at least one tackifier, optionally one or more extenders, optionally at least one hydroscopic substance, and a cure package.

Techniques for managing real-time business event analysis and monitoring are provided. In some examples, a logical request may be received at a business intelligence server configured with a continuous query service. Additionally, the continuous query service may be configured to translate the logical request into a physical request. Further, business intelligence information may be provided based at least in part on querying against an event data stream with a continuous query configured based at least in part on the physical request translated by the continuous query service.

A pneumatic tire includes bead cores, a carcass ply, an inner liner and the tread, and the crosslinked rubber composition, of the present invention, wherein the tread and the crosslinked rubber composition have a volume of the low density region of 35% or more at elongation by an applied stress of 1.5 MPa, a volume of the void portion of 7.5 or less at elongation by an applied stress of 3.0 MPa and a ratio of 40% by mass or more of a component having a weight-average molecular weight of not less than 1,000,000 in a molecular weight distribution measured by gel permeation chromatography are excellent in abrasion resistance.
