Onderdeel van project: Hybride Hergebruik Kunststoffen. In dit RAAK-MKB-project is onderzocht of er combinaties te maken zijn door het hergebruiken van verschillende, moeilijk te recyclen kunststoffen. Het gaat hierbij om End-of-Life stromen van thermoharde composieten, mix-plastics en autobanden. Dit …

The objective of this study is to provide an important building block of circular economy. This comprises the reuse of rubber from end-of-life tires for new tires, as well as saving our resources.

In the recent past, the use of resins in modern tread compounds has increased considerably, in order to further improve tire properties. Based on the experience with silica-silane filler system, which led to a different network structure and a significantly changed devulcanization behavior, the influence …

Tires are an important vehicle component, as car handling, safety and fuel economy depend for a major part on the tire composition and construction. As a consequence, tires are improved continuously. The most prominent improvement in the recent past was the use of a silica-silane filler system in passenger …

As a means to decrease the amount of waste tires and to re-use tire rubber for new tires, devulcanization of ground passenger car tires is a promising process. Being an established process for NR and EPDM, earlier work has shown that for ground passenger car tire rubber with a relatively high amount …
