As is apparent from the results shown in Table 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in which the specific surface area of zinc oxide deviates from the predetermined range had a low modulus and inferior heat resistance and compression set resistance.
In Comparative Example 3 in which the specific surface area of zinc oxide was outside the predetermined range and the sulfur content was larger than the predetermined range, the modulus was low, and the heat resistance and compression set resistance were inferior.
Comparative Example 4 in which the specific surface area of zinc oxide was outside the predetermined range and the sulfur content was higher than that in Comparative Example 3 was inferior in heat resistance and compression set resistance.
In Comparative Example 5 in which the specific surface area of zinc oxide is outside the predetermined range, the modulus was low, and the heat resistance and compression set resistance were inferior.
In Comparative Example 6 in which the specific surface area of zinc oxide was outside the predetermined range and the sulfur content was larger than the predetermined range, the modulus was low, and the heat resistance and compression set resistance were inferior.
