Introduction to waste tires:

Rubber body
Tire rubber forms strong cross-linked macromolecules from mixed elastomers and additives.
Rotating stainless steel wire
High carbon steel wires (B82, CK67) strengthen tires by securing them to rims and reinforcing the body with thin radial steel belts.
Fibers
Polyester and polypropylene fibers arranged in parallel increase the tire’s mechanical strength.

1) Rubber body:

it contains natural and artificial elastomers which is mixed with vulcanized rubber materials, sulfur, black carbon and plasticizers.

Vulcanized rubber materials and Sulfur get affected by heat and pressure during vulcanization, so it also forms cross-links between the longitudinal bonds of the elastomer (due to polymerization).

The molecules get tangled and form a strong bond. A tire rubber
of any size can be accepted as a macromolecule.

2) Rotating stainless steel wire:

High carbon steel wire is usually between 0.7 to 0.95 in steel grades which are known as B82 and ck67.

This group of steels are very high-quality steels and is circular in several rounds inside the tire body at the contact of the tire with the car rim, which prevents the tire from protruding from the car rim.

There is another steel wire in radial steel belt tires that is thin and intertwined with an average thickness of 0.1 mm inside the general body of the tire.

3) Fibers:

These fibers are used to increase the mechanical strength of tire, which are generally made of polyester and polypropylene, which are parallel inside the tire.
