The efficiency
of a tyre is greatly dependent on the rubber mixture of the tread.
The safety of the tyre on dry and wet surfaces is enhanced above all
by the silica content. Even distribution of the silicates and the
avoidance of clumping require chemical processes which ensure the
correct mix within the polymer system.
ZERUMA original plasticizers offer better silicate distribution.
With the ZERUMA silicate mixing technology, YOKOHAMA has succeeded
in developing a completely
new plasticizer which ensures
optimum distribution of the silicates.
The result is a homogeneous rubber mixture with
outstanding wet road characteristics.
This patented technology has been used in production with great
success.
Optimum Wet Road Behaviour
Optimised water displacement guarantees excellent
aquaplaning characteristics. The result: high performance tyres with
impressive wet road characteristics. |
