Description

Conjugated diene-based elastomer and rubber composition comprising the same The present invention relates to a conjugated diene elastomer having excellent processability, wear resistance, and rolling resistance, and a rubber composition containing the same. With the recent increase in interest in energy conservation and environmental issues, there is a demand for fuel-efficient vehicles. Consequently, there is a need for rubber materials for tires that possess low rolling resistance, excellent wear resistance and tensile properties, and steering stability, represented by wet skid resistance. In order to reduce the rolling resistance of a tire, there is a method to minimize the hysteresis loss of vulcanized rubber, and indicators for evaluating such vulcanized rubber include rebound elasticity, tan δ, and Goodrich heat generation at 50°C to 80°C. That is, a rubber material with high rebound elasticity at the above temperature or low tan δ and Goodrich heat generation is preferred. As one of the methods to achieve this, a method has been proposed to reduce the heat generation of the tire by using inorganic fillers such as silica or carbon black in a rubber composition for forming a tire; however, this has the problem that the physical properties of the rubber composition, including wear resistance, crack resistance, and processability, are degraded overall because the dispersion of the inorganic fillers within the rubber composition is not easy. To solve this problem, a method was proposed to improve the dispersibility of inorganic fillers such as silica or carbon black in rubber compositions by modifying the polymerization active site of a conjugated diene polymer obtained by anionic polymerization using organolithium with a modifier containing a functional group capable of interacting with the inorganic filler. However, while the low heat generation is improved, there is still a problem in that tensile properties, wear resistance, and processability are reduced.
