Multifunctional SSBR & LiBR for EV and ULRR Tires

TSRC uses state-of-the-art multiscale simulation and proprietary multiple-initiation synthesis & process technologies, we designed Gen 5 SSBR and Gen 4 low Tg polymers. The Gen 4 SSBR and LiBR products, targeting high silica-loaded EV tire treads, demonstrated 15-40% improvements in rolling resistance (R.R.), compounding efficiency, and wear resistance. Our newest Gen 5 SSBR further improved >10%. Also, we are devoted to incorporating renewable resources to maximize the sustainability impact.
