A tire vulcanizer includes a vulcanizing station where plural pairs of tire vulcanizing molds (M) are arranged to perform vulcanization, a mold opening/closing station (306) where after the tire vulcanizing mold is opened, a vulcanized tire (T) is taken out from the inside of the tire vulcanizing mold, and then an unvulcanized tire (G) to be succeedingly vulcanized is inserted into the inside of t...

The tyre has several carcass inlays around the circumference of the tyre, reaching from bead-to-bead in the axial direction. These consist of solid reinforcements embedded in rubber. The ends (9', 9'') of ≥ 1 carcass inlay (9), which are directed around the circumference, overlap each other, at least near the side walls. There is ≥ 1 further rubber layer (7) around the circumference, radially outs...

Recycling of compact or porous (e.g. foamed) plastics consisting wholly or partly of polyurethane is effected by working-up the starting material to give a mixt. of low OH no. and then conventionally converting this to the end-prods.. The process comprises (i) either (a) swelling the starting material (e.g. polyurethane scrap) in a suitable swelling agent and processing it to give a flowable gel p...
