Challenges for Silica Tread Processing 白炭黑轮胎加工所面临的挑战 Steger /范汝良 Rhein Chemie Rheinau GmbH 莱茵化学(青岛)有限公司 [ Folie: 1 ] [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 2 ] Why pounds ?为何要发展白炭黑胎面? By applying silica instead of carbon black in tire pounds the following results can be achieved : 用白炭黑代替炭黑具有如下优越性能: much lower rolling resistance of the tire 轮胎滚动损失降低很多 much better ice and snow performance 抗冰滑和抗雪滑行能优越很多 much better wet skid behaviour 抗湿滑性能改善很多 at similar tread wear patterns 具有相近的耐磨性 ABS-brake works only with silica on the wet road [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 3 ] Benefits of Silica Technology vs. Carbon Black白炭黑技术优势与炭黑比较 炭黑 白炭黑 滚动阻力 胎面寿命 抗湿滑性 抗雪滑性 [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 4 ] Properties of Silica with respect to Carbon Black 白炭黑与炭黑的性能对比 抗湿滑 抗雪/冰滑 滚动阻力 耐磨性 [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 5 ] History of silica technology 白炭黑技术发展简史 1974 Blue silica tire developped by Metzeler / Germany High loading of silica and BR, no S-SBR available, insufficient processing equipment and know how 1975 Metzler stopped production of blue tire 1980- several developments: silanes, rubbers, 1990 processing equipment and processing know how 1992 Patent on Green Tire of Michelin / France S-SBR, less silica and BR, improved processing equipment and procedures 2000 State of the art silica tire achieves up to 30 % improvement of physical properties but has remarkable processing deficiencies [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 6 ] Up to 35 % reduced rolling resistance with silica Up to 5 % less fuel consumption per car or approx. 2 billion litres of fuel savings per year in Germany alone Green Tire Concept: Economic Benefit 绿色轮胎的概念:获得经济效益 使用白炭黑可使滚动阻力最多可降低35% 每辆轿车的耗油量最多可节省5% 仅在德国,每年可以节省20亿升的燃料 Green Tire Target for Economic Benefit 绿色轮胎的目标是获得经济效益 [ ] Steger - Silica Tread I [ Folie: 7 ] Disadvantages of current silica technology 目前白炭黑技术的缺陷 1.
