APPLICATIONS
- Tire manufacturing plants generate tire tread compound, off-grade from production process. Most importantly, this material is collected in small pieces of tread ends or full cut treads that are uncured and semi processed.
- Uncured treads are not only a good alternate for A grade compound; treads can also be mixed and calendared to make a refined rubber compound. Since treads are semi-processed, they are exposed to head but still considered un-vulcanized rubber compound.
- In summary, Tire tread compound off grade typically have good abrasion of 100 to 130. Tensile strength varies 14 to 18 MPA and hardness Shore A ranges from 60-70 on an average. However, actual physical and chemical properties on scrap compounds vary from lot to lot.
