A tire tread rubber blend uses sunflower oil and high-surface carbon black to balance wet grip, rolling resistance, and wear.
Hydrophilic fumed silica with a silane coupling agent improves tire rubber wear resistance and mechanical properties while maintaining rolling resistance.
Mercapto silane and modified liquid butadiene rubber improve silica dispersion and cut heat loss for tire fuel efficiency across temperatures.
A farnesene-based copolymer with silica or carbon black improves tire tread fuel economy and abrasion resistance without sacrificing processability.
Tapered main grooves and tuned tread viscoelasticity balance low-temperature ride comfort with dry grip, wet grip, and drainage.
A silica-rich tread compound with silane and thiuram chemistry cuts heat buildup and stone-related chipping while preserving steering stability.
Controlled lateral groove depth and a silica-silane tread compound improve wet grip while limiting low-temperature chip cutting and block chipping.
A polysiloxane- or fluorine-modified diene polymer reduces rubber stickiness during processing while preserving ice grip and wear resistance.
Specific cyclic-monomer hydrocarbon resin chemistry improves low-Tg elastomer compatibility while balancing tire wear, grip, and rolling resistance.
