Radiation pre-vulcanization of transitional layer of all-steel load meridian tyre and performance tests of the tyre products
natural rubber is chosen as transitional layer of all-steel load meridian tyre
which is pre-vulcanized by 500 keV E-beam irradiation of up to 60 kGy.The results show that the Green strength of transitional layer increases with the dose
reaching four times at 60 kGy as much as the control(without irradiation).The viscosity of transitional layer increases rapidly below about 29 kGy
but changes little at higher doses.The final mechanical properties do not differ significantly from those of the control.However
thickness of the natural rubber transitional layer for an average single tire can be reduced by 1 mm(or 1.5 kg)
without obvious adverse effect on the tyre performance.
