On electric vehicles (EV), conventional tyres deteriorate roughly 30% more quickly than on normal vehicles. As a result, producers are employing aramid fibres to create incredibly light and durable tyres specifically for the electric vehicle sector.
The market in the United States is dominated by nylon tyre cord fabric.
The Global EV tire cord fabric market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The Teijin Group’s fibres and products converting company, Teijin Frontier, has created an environmentally friendly tyre cord using an adhesive that doesn’t contain resorcinol formaldehyde (RF), which is bad for both humans and the environment, as well as chemically recycled polyester fibre with low environmental impact for rubber reinforcement.
This tyre cable is the first of its kind in the world to be commercialised; it combines an RF-free glue with chemically recycled polyester fibre.
Teijin Frontier is working to increase its environmental value by creating greener materials and products for uses ranging from clothes to industrial materials, as part of its THINK ECO environmental effort. The corporation is placing more and more of an emphasis on low-impact solutions, which led to the development of the new tyre cord.
The new tyre cord lessens the environmental effect of adhesive manufacturing by using an adhesive polymer compound rather than RF. The adhesion performance of this adhesive is also comparable to that of traditional resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex (RFL) adhesives because of its great affinity for fibres and rubber.
