A durable car tire is the result of a complex manufacturing process in which the tire is built-up from various rubber compounds and reinforcing materials. By using rubber chemicals and various fillers, the raw material rubber is turned into a high-performance product. This is because rubber is soft and not very durable until vulcanization. By selecting the type of rubber, the crosslinking chemicals and additives required for the desired technical properties of the end product, high-performance products such as tires, hoses, gaskets, profiles and other rubber products are created.
SOLUTIONS FOR THE TIRE INDUSTRY
As a strong partner to the tire industry, we offer the right additive for all steps of rubber production from a single source and thus also has the broadest product range for the manufacture of high-performance tires. Antioxidants protect rubber products from the harmful effects of oxygen and ozone. Accelerators facilitate the crosslinking of rubber, noticeably reducing vulcanization times. The DBD-Renacit® product line also supports and facilitates production in rubber processing.
