 BENEFITS OF NITROGEN FILLING FOR TIRES

Nitrogen is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. It has five electrons in its outer shell and valency is three. Generally, the size of the  Nitrogen molecules is more prominent than the other air molecules. As a result of that, the permeability of Nitrogen molecules is very low through the rubber layer or a rubber surface.  


Earth's atmosphere contains 78% of Nitrogen. It is an inert gas.

What are the benefits of Nitrogen filled tires over conventional compressed air filling?

  • Comparatively, Nitrogen retains a longer period of time inside the tire or maintains recommended air pressure for a longer period of time compared with conventional compressed air mixture
  • Due to maintaining stable air pressure for a longer period of time, Nitrogen helps to earn maximum milage and complete tire life usage
  • Nitrogen-filled tires save more fuel. Because it prevents under-inflation of your tire.
  • Nitrogen is a dry gas, In other words, it no contain moisture. The conventional air mixture contains about 21% of Oxygen. Both moisture, as well as oxygen, directly affect adverse effects on your tire structure and rim assembly. Oxygen easily reacts with the rubber compound of your tire and moisture causes the corrosion of the rim structure. Also, oxygen accelerates the coronation reaction.
  •  When your tire is in motion, it subjects to continuous flexing of the sidewall and rubs against the contact surface. In both these instances, generate a high amount of heat. Subject to continuous heat weaken the rubber of your tire and may result in serious injuries such as a blowout. Tires filled with Nitrogen ensure that maintaining tire temperature is as cool as possible. If the tire is filled with compressed air the moisture in it absorbs and retains the heat within it.

HOW TO MAKE SOAP BY COLD PROCESS

 HOW TO MAKE SOAP BY COLD PROCESS What is soap? Soap is a consumer good that we need to maintain good hygiene daily. The history of soap is extended to 2200 BC. Soap helps to prevent the spreading of diseases, and clean the clothes and goods. During the Covid-19 virus, soap did a tremendous job against spreading it.  The major constituents of soap are oil, alkali(base), and water.Apart from that, there are several miscellaneous ingredients that are added to the soap mixture to obtain scent, color, and texture. Soap act as a cleaning agent. It comes to the market with different physical natures such as cubes, bars, powders, and liquids. Manufacturing of soap is done by using 02 processes. Namely Cold Process Hot Process In this blog article, we are discussing the cold process. The basic soap recipe for the cold process is to produce 4kg of laundry soap Oil or fat          -     2.75kg Alkali/Base     -     370g Water  ...

Natural Rubber

 The natural rubber has a vegetative origin. It is extracted as latex from the bark of the Hevea tree. Natural rubber latex is a polymer. The monomer or building unit of natural rubber latex Isoprene. The molecule consists of thousands of Isoprene units, joined end to end resulting in poly Isoprene or Natural rubber.  The natural rubber polymer is almost 100% Cis-1,4 poly Isoprene and the  average molecular weight (M W)  is in the  3.4 × 10 6    range Natural rubber tends to crystallize spontaneously at low temperatures or when it is stretched, because of its high structural regularity. Low-temperature crystallization cause stiffening of the polymer, but it can be easily reversed by warming. Crystallization of natural rubber results in high tensile strength, and resistance to cutting, tearing, and abrasion. Composition of Field Natural Rubber Latex Material                       ...

RECYCLING OF TIRE RUBBER

  RECYCLING OF TIRE RUBBER In 1840, Charles Goodyear invented the process "Vulcanization" to convert soft natural rubber into a hardened form by the formation of cross-links in between rubber molecules, bridged by Sulphur atoms. Simply Vulcanization can be defined as the "heating of rubber with sulfur" which is an irreversible process and is predominantly used to produce automobile tires. The global consumption of natural rubber for the tire industry is 76% of all the natural rubber produced globally. According to the year 2019 statistics, over 3 billion tires are manufactured annually, worldwide. The tire is a composite product of natural rubber, polymer derived from non-renewable petroleum products, various chemicals, steel, and fabrics and is designed for use in a single generation. Once the tire is worn out, it becomes an industrial waste. There are serious concerns about the disposal of used tires in the environment such as possible fire hazards(tire fires), in...
