A conjugated diene polymer is provided that includes a conjugated diene-based constituent unit and a group represented by Formula (I) below at both termini of a polymer chain.
(In the formula, R1 denotes a hydrogen atom, a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 20 carbons, or a substituted hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 20 carbons, X1, X2, and X3 independently denote a group represented by Formula (II) below, a hydroxy group, a hydrocarbyl group, or a substituted hydrocarbyl group, and at least one of X1, X2, and X3 is a group represented by Formula (II) below or a hydroxy group.)
(In the formula, R2 and R3 independently denote a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 6 carbons, a substituted hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 6 carbons, a silyl group, or a substituted silyl group, and R2 and R3 may be bonded so as to form, together with the N atom, a ring structure.)
There are also provided a conjugated diene polymer composition formed by combining the conjugated diene polymer and a filler, a process for producing the conjugated diene polymer, a process for producing the conjugated diene polymer composition, a vulcanizate, and a process for producing the vulcanizate.
