Procedure
The procedure described in Example 9 was utilized in this example except that a premix containing 25:75 mixture of styrene and 1,3-isoprene in hexanes was used in place of isoprene and the modifier was changed from STA/DPE to ETE alone. The molar ratio of ETE to n-BuLi was 0.5:1. The Tg, microstructure of 25/75 SIR (styrene-isoprene rubber) formed and the time needed to consume more than 90 percent of the monomers charged are listed in TABLE 8.
