Compositions including functionalized silylated polymers, cured compositions and methods

A curable polymer composition, comprising:

• a silylated polydiene polymer comprising a reaction product of i) a polydiene and ii) a silylating grafting agent having the formula:
• wherein n is an integer from 0 to 150, and each R individually is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, Fg, or a monovalent organic group, or where two or more R groups join to form a bond or a polyvalent organic group, with the proviso that at least one R is a hydrogen atom;
• wherein Fg is derived from a compound having the formula CH2═C(R1)(R2), wherein at least one of R1 and R2 have a functionality that may participate in hydrogen bonding, a chemical reaction with a filler or polymer grafting and one of R, and R2 may be a hydrogen atom or an organic group, or
• wherein R is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, Fg or a monovalent organic group, Fg is as defined above, and n is 2 to 5;
• a non-silylated polydiene polymer comprising one or more of natural rubber, styrene-butadiene copolymer, and poly(1,3-butadiene);
• and
• a filler comprising one or more of carbon black and silica.
