Patent ID: 8536264

Claim:
A pneumatic tire comprising a component, the component comprising a rubber composition comprising a diene based elastomer and 1 to 100 phr of: A) a twin polymerization reaction product of a silyl ether, wherein the silyl ethers are of the following structures I or II: wherein m=0, 1, or 2; n=4-m; R=aliphatic or heteroaliphatic moieties (alkyl, alkoxy etc.); X=oxygen or sulfur; A1, A2, A3=independently from each other H, or alkyl; wherein R1, R2=independently from each other hydrogen, alkyl up to 6 carbons; A1, A2, A3, A4=independently from each other hydrogen, unbranched or branched aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons or aromatic-aliphatic hydrocarbons; or B) a twin polymerization reaction product of a boronic acid esters as shown in formula V: wherein m=0 or 1; n=3-m; R=aliphatic or heteroaliphatic moieties (alkyl, alkoxy etc.); X=oxygen or sulfur; A1, A2, A3=independently from each other H, alkyl; or C) a twin polymerization reaction product of a titanium compound derived from tetraethyl orthotitanate and furfuryl alcohol; or D) a twin polymerization reaction product of a tungsten compound derived from tungsten hexachloride and a member of the groups consisting of furfuryl acetate, thiophene-2-methanol, p-methoxybenzylalcohol or o-methoxybenzylalcohol.
