Estimating the term…
A pneumatic tire having an air permeation preventive layer comprising a low permeability thermoplastic elastomer composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer having a thermoplastic resin composition as a continuous phase and a rubber composition as a dispersed phase, in which a barrier resin composition is contained, which low permeability thermoplastic elastomer composition has a phase structure in which the barrier resin composition is dispersed in the form of a flat state in the thermoplastic elastomer, is abundant in flexibility, is superior in gas permeation preventive property, and enables the tire to be reduced in weight.
A pneumatic tire comprising (i) a resin film layer containing a thermoplastic resin and an elastomer, located at at least a part of the innermost surface or outermost surface of the tire, (ii) a black rubber layer and, located between the layer (i) and the layer (ii), at least one (iii) black-concealing layer having a light reflectance of at least 15% for concealing the black color of the black rubber layer (ii), said resin film layer (i) being colored for indicating various information.
