Abstract:
1. A liquid polymer that is particularly useful in molding elastomeric articles, said liquid polymer being comprised of repeat units that are derived from a conjugated diolefin monomer and an amine functionalized monomer, wherein said liquid polymer has a weight average molecular weight which is within the range of 5,000 to 100,000, wherein the liquid polymer is a random copolymer of the conjugated diolefin monomer and the amine functionalized monomer, wherein said liquid polymer has a vinyl microstructure content which is within the range of 7 percent to 20 percent, wherein the liquid polymer is pumpable, and wherein the amine functionalized monomer is of the structural formula: wherein R represents an alkyl group containing from 1 to about 10 carbon atoms or a hydrogen atom, and wherein R wherein R
