Multivariate approach in compound development by alternative raw materials

Striving to reach sustainable development is high on the agenda for the tyre industry, while acknowledging different ways to contribute to sustainability. In this work we will employ a multivariate analysis approach to compound development with biobased and alternative raw materials. At the same time we will also take a look into other ways of reducing the environmental impact of the industry, such as energy efficient production and lowered rolling resistance, from a tyre oil perspective.
