​Tires

Eastman tire additives enable tire compounders to enhance the strength and durability of tires while also optimizing the wet grip and rolling resistance conflict. Eastman Crystex™ vulcanizing agents for rubber prevent sulfur migration and bloom which can interfere with the tire building process. Eastman Santoflex™ antidegradants prevent premature aging caused by exposure to ozone and oxygen—extending tire flexibility and service life. As regulatory and safety standards increase, Eastman Impera™ performance resins can help deliver the desired balance of performance and safety without compromising the integrity of the tire manufacturing processes. Eastman Duralink HTS™ post-vulcanization stabilizer provides a stable network after vulcanization, leading to better tear and chip/chunk resistance, improved flex fatigue, and better retained adhesion levels, this enables tires to perform well over many miles.
