  • the peel strength of 1 and Comparative Example 9 were expressed as 100, respectively, as an exponential notation. The larger the adhesive figure of merit, the better the adhesiveness.
  • the innermost layer of the tread is the first layer when the number of layers of the tread portion is 1, the second layer when the number of layers of the tread portion is 2, and the number of layers of the tread portion is 3. Refers to the third layer.
  • ⁇ Durability test> Using a drum tester, use a standard rim (6.0J), internal pressure (260kPa), load (4.56kN), and road surface temperature of 80 ° C. on a drum at a speed of 230km / h to make a tread rubber. The running time until peeling damage occurred was measured. The results were expressed exponentially with the reference comparative example (Comparative Example 7 in Table 4 and Comparative Example 15 in Table 5) as 100. The larger the index, the better the durability performance at high temperature and high speed running.
  • Tables 4 and 5 also show the overall figure of merit (the sum of the durability figure of merit, the initial grip figure of merit, and the grip stability figure of merit).
  • the tires of the present disclosure in which the first layer of the tread and the second layer are composed of a rubber composition containing a rubber component and a thermoplastic elastomer, have a well-balanced grip performance and durability performance. You can see that it has been improved.
