The present invention provides a rubber composition for coating carcass
cord improving adhesive property to the carcass cord and further
suppressing the crack growth, heat generation and lowering of rubber
property, and a carcass cord coated thereby. A rubber composition for
coating carcass cord comprising 3 to 10 parts by weight of zinc oxide,
0.5 to 5 parts by weight of resorcin condensate or modified resorcin
condensate and 0.5 to 5 parts by weight of partial condensate of
hexamethylol melamine pentamethyl ether or partial condensate of hexa
methoxy methylol melamine based on 100 parts by weight of a rubber
component comprising 40 to 80% by weight of natural rubber or isoprene
rubber, 10 to 30% by weight of butadiene rubber and 10 to 40% by weight
of styrene butadiene rubber.
