Abstract
The invention relates to quaternary polymers, based on conjugate dienes, vinyl-substituted aromatic compounds, olefinically unsaturated nitriles and amino group-containing monomers. The rubber vulcanizates or molded articles, in particular tires, produced from the quaternary polymers or their mixtures with other rubbers are balanced out by good mechanical properties, in particular by a desirable balance in relation to the rolling resistance, skid resistance in the wet and abrasion, which is of particular advantage in tire construction.
