Tires are the largest consumer area of white carbon black, and its application has completely changed traditional formulas:
Traditional tires: mainly made of carbon black, with high rolling resistance and low fuel efficiency.
White carbon black tire:
Reduce rolling resistance by 15% -30% and decrease carbon dioxide emissions.
Improve wetland grip, shorten braking distance, and enhance safety.
Extend tire life and reduce microplastic pollution.
Case: Michelin's "Green X" tires achieve a balance between energy efficiency and performance through highly dispersed white carbon black technology, becoming the benchmark for A-level products under EU labeling regulations.
Challenge: The compatibility between white carbon black and rubber needs to be improved through silane coupling agents, which is costly.
