Abstract
Abstract According to this invention, a rubber composition is provided, which comprises 100 parts by weight of a rubber component and 25 to 250 parts by weight of carbon black, which carbon black falls within the property range of an electron-microscopic average particle diameter (dn) of above 31 millimicron, an iodine adsorption number of 35 to 60 mg/g and a dibutyl phthalate absorption number (DBP) of 90 to 150 ml/100 g and further has a selected property such that the Dst mode diameter (m mu ) is below the value (m mu ) obtained from the following equation: Dst=2.65xdn+0.64xDBP-27.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
A rubber composition prepared by compounding 100 parts by weight of a rubber component with 25 to 250 parts by weight of carbon black which belongs to a furnace carbon black having the property range of an electron-microscopic average particle diameter (dn) of above 31 millimicron, an iodine adsorption number of 35 to 60 mg/g, and a dibutyl phthalate absorption number (DBP) of 90 to 150 ml/100 g, and which has a selected property in that the Dst mode diameter (mμ) is below the value obtained from the following equation: Dst=2.65×dn+0.64×DBP-27.56.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
A rubber composition prepared by compounding 100 parts by weight of a rubber component with 25 to 250 parts by weight of carbon black which belongs to a furnace carbon black having the property range of an electron-microscopic average particle diameter (dn) of above 31 millimicron, an iodine adsorption number of 35 to 60 mg/g, and a dibutyl phthalate absorption number (DBP) of 90 to 150 ml/100 g, and which has a selected property in that the Dst mode diameter (mμ) is below the value obtained from the following equation: Dst=2.65×dn+0.64×DBP-27.56.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
A rubber composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein 40 to 80 parts by weight of the carbon black is compounded with 100 parts by weight of the rubber component.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
A rubber composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein the rubber component is selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, styrene/butadiene rubber, polybutadiene rubber, isoprene rubber and butyl rubber.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
80 words
A rubber composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein the carbon black is produced by pyrolyzing a hydrocarbon feedstock in a reaction zone with a combustion gas stream produced by burning a hydrocarbon fuel in a combustion chamber under conditions in which the swirling power of the combustion air blown into said reaction zone is about 0.6 in terms of a swirl number, and the residence time of the pyrolysis product in the furnace is 340 to 380 milliseconds.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
64 words
A rubber composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein the carbon black is produced in a furnace consisting of a cylindrical combustion chamber with a converged downstream side, a reduced diameter portion contiguous to said downstream side of the combustion chamber, a gradually enlarging, tapered reaction zone contiguous to said reduced diameter portion, and a cylindrical wind box contiguous to said reaction zone.
