- composition of the tire layer according to the invention may comprise additives added to the composition, these additives being able to be well known to those skilled in the art, by examples of other elastomers, anti-aging agents, plasticizers, non-reinforcing fillers, reinforcing resins (such as resorcinol or bismaleimide), or a crosslinking system.
- the crosslinking system may in particular be a so-called vulcanization system, that is to say based on sulfur (or a sulfur donor agent) and a vulcanization accelerator .

- the composition does not comprise a crosslinking system. - -
- the composition of the tire layer according to the invention makes it possible to obtain particular properties and in particular a high Young's modulus, even at the high temperatures encountered in a tire during its use.
- High Young's modulus means a modulus greater than 1000 MPa, preferably greater than 1300 MPa and more preferably greater than 1500 MPa.
- the composition of the layer described above has a Young's modulus at 110 ° C. which is greater than 1000 MPa, preferably greater than 1300 MPa and more preferably greater than 1500 MPa. It is known that high modulus compositions generally have a low elongation at break, that is to say most of the time less than 70%. With the compositions described for the tire of the invention, it is possible to obtain a much higher breaking elongation, which is to allow the tire to have good resistance to deformation. It is known that the elongation rupture tends to increase with temperature, it is therefore useful that from room temperature, this elongation at break is sufficiently high and especially greater than 100%. In this case, this elongation at break will remain greater than 100% at 110 ° C for example.
- the composition of the layer described above has an elongation at break at 25.degree. C. greater than 100%, preferably greater than 130% and more preferably greater than 150.degree. %).
- the present invention relates to a tire comprising at least one layer consisting of a polymeric composition defined above. This layer is preferably used as the inner layer of the tire. - -
- this inner layer is a tread underlayer, a tire crown layer, a carcass ply, a low tire zone layer (preferably the bead), or any other layer that is not in contact with the ambient air or the inflation gas of the tire.
- the thickness of this layer is preferably between 0.5 and 40 mm, more preferably between 1 and 10 mm. For example, layer thicknesses of 1 to 5 mm have proved to be quite suitable for use in tire crowns.
- this layer is adjacent to an elastomeric layer, well known to those skilled in the art and usually used in the tire, forming with the latter a laminate.
- the polymer layer is provided with an adhesive layer with respect to each layer of rubber composition with which it is in contact.
- the invention also applies to cases where no adhesive layer is used, the polymer layer itself and / or each layer of rubber composition may have a self-adhesive property due to its or their formulation clean.
- any suitable adhesive system may be used, for example a simple textile glue of the "RFL” type (resorcino-1-formaldehyde latex).
- the polymeric layer of the tire of the invention may be prepared by the usual means known to those skilled in the art, such as extrusion, by mixing all the ingredients of the composition, at a temperature above Highest Tg between the Tg of the thermoplastic block of the thermoplastic elastomer or the Tg of the thermoplastic polymer.
- a flat die, placed at the exit of the extruder makes it possible to obtain sheets of the desired thickness, for example about 2 mm thick. For thinner thicknesses, the resulting sheet may be deposited on a calender that allows the sheet to be stretched to refine it, for example to about 1 mm thick.
- the layer obtained above can be assembled, especially flat, that is to say before the conformation of the tire, with the other layers, according to the techniques known to the man of the 'art.
- the tire is then baked, according to techniques also known to those skilled in the art.
- compositions Tl, T2 and Cl were carried out on an extruder "Kraus Maffei", mixing all the ingredients (polyamide “RILSAN CLEAR G 170” from the company ARKEMA, where appropriate ether block copolyamide (PEBA) " PEBAX 7033 "from the company ARKEMA, and where appropriate the carbon black N234 series from CABOT) at a temperature ranging from 250 to 270 ° C.
- PEBA ether block copolyamide
- PEBAX 7033 from the company ARKEMA
- CABOT carbon black N234 series from CABOT
- the sheets of 1 mm obtained above are then cut by means of a ZUND cutting table to obtain specimens of 2.5 mm * 200 mm * 1 mm, for measurements of Young's modulus, breaking test pieces for breaking elongation measurements, and 20mm * 10mm * 1mm "bar" test pieces for the DMA module measurement test.
- the Young's modulus measurements, and the breaking elongation measurements are made at room temperature or at 110 ° C as the case as defined above in the present application.
- the Young's modulus at 110 ° C. is calculated from the Young's modulus measured at 25 ° C., by applying the variation curve of the module as a function of temperature, as obtained by DMA.
- the bar specimen is applied to which a sinusoidal deformation is applied without static deformation, and - - varies the temperature from 25 to 250 ° C.
- the module is then read according to the temperature.
- the ability to deform is also evaluated for a sheet of 2 mm thick, by manual folding of this sheet, at room temperature, to form an angle of 180 °.
- a note (-) is assigned to a sheet that breaks during this manipulation, while a note (+) is assigned to a sheet that does not break during this manipulation.
- compositions produced are presented in Table 1 below.
- thermoplastic polymer improves the deformability of the layer but reduces the Young's modulus value of T2 with respect to Tl.
- the addition of the reinforcing filler in the composition C1 according to the invention makes it possible to find a level of modulus which is very satisfactory and even better than the thermoplastic polymer alone (Tl), while retaining good aptitude for deformation.
