Abstract:
According to the process for reconditioning the worn tread of a solid or inflatable tyre, wherein a prefabricated rubber tread is applied by vulcanisation of a binding rubber layer between the tread and the carcass to the latter, the damaged belts of the tyre carcass may also be replaced at the same time. The belts coated with rough rubber, for manufacturing new tyres or for a tyre reconditioning process which have to be carried out at high temperature and pressure conditions, are treated with an activator solution appropriate to the binding rubber. The rough rubber coating of the belt is so transformed that the belt material may be applied with a binding rubber inclusion to replace the damaged belt on the carcass and it may be vulcanised with the layer structure of the tyre blank used to the reconditioning in an over-pressure chamber at a temperature of about 50-95oC and at a pressure of 5-6 bars approximately. The belts fabricated according to this process may be used as a base material for manufacturing repair patches.
Abstract:
In a process for producing coatings adhering to the surface while being removable, a treatment liquid is produced from PUR elastomers enabling a thermoplastic treatment by admixing a solvent. Said treatment liquid, fluid or viscous depending on the mixture ratio, is applied to the surface and forms after evaporation of the solvent a coating adhering solidly to the surface while being completely removable if required. Even in the case of a thin wall, said coating has an excellent tear resistance while being elastic and flexible. Its surface is absolutely tight and it provides a reliable protection against the mechanical effects and the like. It is preferably used for the reconditioning and the repair of tyres of motor vehicles, the necessary rubber envelope being replaced by the coating. Said coating may also be used as a protection against oxidation and adverse mechanical influences for the rough lower surface of the prefabricated rubber tread for the reconditioning of tyres of motor vehicles.
