Fully rubber-penetrated steel cord and production method
By optimizing the relationship between the diameter and twist pitch of the core strand and the outer winding steel wire, and by applying different torsional stresses to the core strand before winding, the problems of uneven core strand twisting and differences in bending stiffness were solved, the glue penetration rate and strand permeability of the steel cord were improved, and the risk of core strand protrusion was reduced.

AI Technical Summary
In the production of fully rubber-insulated steel cords, the uneven twisting of the core strands and the difference in bending stiffness between the core strands and the outer windings result in poor continuity and core strand protrusion problems during use.
By designing the relationship between the diameter and twist of the core strand and the outer winding steel wire, the bending stiffness of the core strand is made to meet the bending stiffness of the outer winding steel wire by 0.9 to 1.76 times. Different torsional stresses are applied to the core strand steel wire before winding to ensure that the cross-sectional metal filling rate of the steel cord reaches more than 60%, while maintaining a spacing of at least 20μm between the outer winding steel wires.
It increases the rubber penetration rate of steel cord, reduces core strand twisting defects, increases the continuity and flatness of the cord, and reduces the risk of core strands curling up in tires.
