Abstract
The present invention relates to a rubber composition based on at least an epoxidized natural rubber (ENR), a reinforcing filler and, as plasticizing agent, an alpha-methylstyrene polymer resin. The invention also relates to the use of such a composition for the manufacture of a tire tread exhibiting an improved compromise of properties with respect to grip on wet ground and rolling resistance.
