Basics
- Can also be written as "Tyre" but more google results for Tire
- The most common type of tire
- Often a form of Municipal Solid Waste, and can't be recycled easily as they are a Thermoset Plastic...that has also been Vulcanized
- Given how Sulfur Vulcanization is common, if Incinerated or Pyrolysed the gas stream would REQUIRE a Gas Scrubber , abd sulfur may contaminate the fuel/chemicals produced
- Very durable
- Waterproof if cut into sections and/or made into a sheet
Processing Methods
Cutting
- Any good jigs?
Lasercutting
- Can they be cut with a Lasercutter
- Main concern is vapors if it CAN be done
Sewing
- Can be sewn into products or textiles
Welding
- Thermally probably can't work
- Any chemical methods?
Derivitive Products
- Vulcanized Rubber Tire Shingles
- Vulcanized Rubber Tire Textile
- Shredded Vulcanized Rubber Tires
- Vulcanized Rubber Tire Based Shoes
Internal Links
- Rubber
- Vulcanization
- Tire-Derived Fuel (Not reccomended (outside of at the end of a Life Cycle containing other uses) due to complexity, and better alternative use cases)
