It is well known that tire tread pattern has much influence on the tire pattern noise. The paper describes the method of pattern noise reduction by using the pitch sequence, both on the smooth asphalt roads and on the trenched concrete roads. The noise of tire is classified as either airborne or structure borne noise. Pattern noise through the airborne is considered as a major noise source at high speeds. As block impacting and air pumping by tread patterns are major noise source, tire pattern noise can be greatly influenced by optimal pitch sequence. The goal of this paper is to provide tire engineers with pitch sequence to reduce pattern noise effectively.

Rubber chemicals such as accelerators, antidegradants, vulcanizing agents, processing agents and retarders are very important to the production and protection of tires and rubber goods. The use of accelerators and antidegradants are evaluated in various tire components. This paper will focus on how to vulcanize tires economically and maintain the physical properties of each tire component without severe degradation due to oxygen, heat and ozone. Also, new non-nitrosoamine accelerators and non-staining antiozonants will be discussed. Lastly, the future requirements of antidegradants and accelerators in the tire industry will be reviewed. Tires have been vulcanized with Sulfenamides as primary accelerators and either Guamdine's or Thiurams as secondary accelerators to achieve proper properties at service conditions. However, interior components such as the carcass can be vulcanized with Thiazoles as a primary accelerator to cure faster than the external components. Using the combination of Sulfenamide with secondary accelerators in a tire tread compound and the combination of a Thiazole and Guanidine in a carcass compound will be presented with performance data. Uniroyal Chemical and another Rubber Chemical Manufacturer have developed, "Tetrabenzyl Thiuram Disulfide," (TBzTD) as a non-Nitrosoamine accelerator, which could replace Nitrosoamine generating Thiurams. This new accelerator has been evaluated in a tread compound as a secondary accelerator. Also, Flexsys has developed N-t-butyl-2-benzothiazole Sulfenamide (TBSI) as a non-Nitrosoamine accelerator which could replace 2-(Morpholinothio) -benzothiazole (MBS), a scorch delayed Sulfendamide accelerator. TBSI has been evaluated in a Natural Rubber (NR) belt skim compound vs. MBS. An optimum low rolling resistant cure system has been developed in a NR tread with Dithiomorpholine (DTDM). Also, future requirements for developing accelerators will be discussed such as the replacement of DTDM and other stable crosslink systems. Antidegradants are divided into two different types for use in tire compounds. Internal tire compounds such as apex, carcass, liner, wire breaker, cushion, base tread and bead compounds are protected by antioxidants against degradation from oxygen and heat due to mechanical shear. The external components such as sidewall, chafer and cap tread com-pounds are protected from ozone by antiozonants and waxes. Various kinds of staining and non-staining antioxidants have been evaluated in a tire carcass compound. Also, various para-phenylene diamine antiozonants have been evaluated in a tire sidewall compound to achieve the improved lifetime of the tire. New non-staining antiozonants such as 2, 4, 6-tris-(N-1, 4-dimethylpentyl-p-phenylene diamine) 1, 3, 5 Trizine (D-37) and un-saturated Acetal (AFS) will be discussed in the tire sidewall to achieve better appearance. The future requirements of antidegradants will be presented to improve tire performance such as durability, better appearance and longer lasting tires.

폐타이어는 높은 인장저항력으로 인하여 지반보강에 사용될 수 있을 뿐 아니라 재활용시 대량처리에도 효과적이다. 폐타이어를 지반보강재로 사용하기 위하여 타이어 트레드만을 이용한 트레드매트를 제작하였다. 현장에서 화강풍화토지반을 조성하여 트레드매트의 보강효과를 알아보기 위하여 트레드매트와 상업용 지오그리드 각각에 대한 평판재하시험을 수행하였다. 그리고 지반보강재 인접 지반에서의 응력과 변형을 알아보기 위해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 트레드매트는 상업용지오그리드 못지 않은 지반보강효과를 나타내었다. 유한요소해석결과 지반보강재 바로 밑에서 응력의 현저한 감소를 나타내었으며 보강재로 인한 응력분포를 확인할 수 있었다. 최종적으로 폐타이어의 대량처리를 위한 수단으로 지반보강을 위한 트레드매트의 사용이 제안되었다.

Necessarily, it is required to analyze interfacial mechanism between tire and road for understanding tire wear, vehicle tracking and breaking. Therefore, there have been some efforts to measure 3-axis pressure and 2-axis displacement on tire road interface. But it was so hard to couple precisely measuring sensor and desired point on tire tread pattern block that it was impossible to analyze the mechanism on commercial tire with tread pattern. To overcome such a problem, a on-line measurement system is proposed in this paper. And an automatic control system is designed to test the tire with similar configuration of real vehicle driving.

In this paper, This work demonstrates a experimental evaluation for vehicle road noise NVH performance from the component-level NVH measurements of Tire. The power unit noise from tire emitted by cars has been reduced. It has been found that tire noise dominates noise produced by the power train when vehicles are driven at high constant speed. Therefore tire pattern noise is affected by pattern and vehicle and transmission loss. Tire noise mechanism is generated by several mechanisms. The sound of tire can propagate either through the air or through the structure of vehicle. Pattern noise is the result of pressure variations through the air to the interior side of vehicle. Especially, smooth asphalt, the periodicity of tread design, groove depth is important factor, which have an influence on the reduction of tire pattern noise.

1976년에 실시예정이었던 미국의 타이어 품질등급제(UTQGS)가 79년 3월부터 실시될 것 같다. UTQGS란 ①Tread 마모성능, ②Traction 성능, ③고속성능 등에 대해서 각각의 품질등급을 타이어에 표시할 것을 의무화시켜, 사용자가 타이어를 구입하는 경우 선택하기 쉽도록 편의를 도모하기 위한 목적이다. 이것은 당초 76년 1월부터 실시될 예정이었으나, 주로 Tread 마모성능의 테스트 방법과 표시방법을 둘러싸고 미국 High Way 안전청(NHTSA)과 미국의 타이어 메이커 간에 소송까지 벌어져서 그 실시가 지연되었다. 제1심에서는 타이어 메이커 측이 패소하여 타이어 메이커는 즉시 상소하였으나, 기간 재판의 진행 상태로 보아 UTQGS가 실시될 정망이 농후해졌다. 그러나 NHTSA는 내년부터 실시되는 동법령중에서 Radial을 제외하고 있어서, 세계의 주류로 되어 있는 Radial 타이어를 제외 하는 것은 「UTQGS의 효과를 반감하는 것」이라는 비판이 나오고 있다.

A tire tread pattern recognition scheme of which the pattern recognition algorithm is designed based on the fuzzy hierarchical clustering method is proposed and compared with the scheme based on the conventional FCM. The features are extracted from the binary images of the tire tread patterns. In the proposed scheme, the protoypes are obtained more easily and schematically than obtained prototypes using FCM. The experimental results of classification for the practical situations are given and shows the usefulness of the proposed scheme.

The friction and wear of tire determined by frictional behavior of tire tread that translate driving force, cornering force and braking force between automobile and road as a result of frictional behavior of each tread block. The tire tread block is representative case of rubber block doing frictional behavior. In this paper, frictional behavior of rubber block under compressive force and shear force was analytically obtained by using slip starting position parameter instead of friction coefficient which is uncertain to express exact value between rubber and other surfaces yet. And local coefficients of friction were calculated as a function of compressive force, shear force, shear modulus of rubber, shape factor and slip starting position.

Articulation Index(AI) is the one of the evaluating methods for the interior sound of the automobiles. The AI measures the articulation level of the sound in the vehicle cabin as passengers talk to another. In this study, the effects of AI were investigated according to the various structures of tire. As the structures of tire were changed, the road noise of the vehicle tire was measured using objective measurement. From this measurement data, the AI was calculated. The AI of front is larger than that of rear. Increasing the tread hardness of tire or decreasing the apex height the AI is improved.
