Mixing of filler particles with elastomers is one the most important steps in tire manufacturing process. Precipitated Silica (Si), as a filler, shows enhanced properties compared carbon black when incorporated an elastomer such low rolling resistance, high wet grip performance, and wear resistance. According to standard rubber mixing process, fragmentation during must yield breakage size that ...

In this study, waste tire powder and waste liquid crystal display (LCD) glass sand are used as recycled materials. With a fixed water to binder ratio (W/B = 0.4), the use of fly ash and slag as cementreplacement materials. waste tire powder and waste LCD glass sand, which passed the sieve screen size # 30(0.595 mm), were used to replace fine aggregates at 0%, 5% and 10% in producing lightweight...

The study aimed at assessing cancer risk in a cohort of workers employed in the rubber tire production. The cohort consisted of 17,747 workers (11,660 men and 6087 women) employed in a rubber tire plant for at least three months during the years 1950-1995. The cohort follow-up was completed on December 31, 1995. Deaths by causes were analyzed using standardized mortality ratio (SMR) calculated ...

The main characteristic of rubber is a viscoelasticity. So it is important to research the characteristic of the viscoelasticity of the high frequency band for the friction between a rubber material and the hard one with roughness, for instance, the tire and the road. As for the measurement of the viscoelasticity of rubber, DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis) is general. However, some problems ar...

Abstract Sustainable construction is attracting more attention lately. It involves the design of eco-friendly building structures, reduction energy consumption and waste, use renewable recyclable resources, enhancement low-impact manufacturing methods. This paper addresses some these sustainability questions, in context tire recycled rubber particles as aggregates cement mortars suitable for Ad...
