EXPO 2020

Welcome to
Tire Technology
Expo 2020!
W e have quite a number of exhibitors who remember our first Tire Technology Expo held
in the South of France at a rather epic venue adjacent to the beach in Cannes. It was
and remains the home of the Cannes Film Festival, which of course each year attracts
the world’s most famous film stars and celebrities. With the Côte d’Azur sea sparkling
in the Mediterranean sunshine, a fabulous golden sandy beach to our left and superyachts to our right, it
was a great start. However, it was deemed too glamorous for the tire manufacturing industry. People politely
told me it sounded far too much like a jolly vacation destination than a place for the serious world of tire
design and manufacturing. What followed was a switch to Hamburg and various rotations into Cologne and
Stuttgart, followed by an eight-year term in Cologne before we headed north to Hannover, which has proved
to be our best destination so far.

During the years – 19 by reference to the calendar and 20 by reference to this being the 20th staging of
the event – Tire Technology Expo has grown to become the #1 event of its kind in Europe and probably the
world. It offers a unique combination of conferences and courses, an incredible array of exhibits that come
typically from 300 leading industry suppliers, plus the Gala Dinner and Tire Technology International Awards
for Innovation and Excellence, making for a truly all-embracing industry celebration. The event includes the
best in the business at both a scientific and a commercial level, and incorporates leading-edge suppliers
who are helping to push the frontiers of efficient and sustainable manufacturing using the latest chemicals
and materials and manufacturing innovations, which are all on show today. Tire Technology Expo is an event
that embraces knowledge sharing and contract signing in equal measure. Although this year’s preparations
have had a few extra challenges for us to deal with, it is always a great pleasure for the team and me to bring
this show together. With your support and participation I hope to see it arrive at its 40th anniversary in due
course. Sincere thanks to everyone who has contributed to the process so far.

EXTEND THE LIFETIME


OF CURING BLADDERS
Schill & Seilacher “Struktol” will highlight its new reactive
polymeric plasticizers, Struktol HT 815 and 820. These
products have been developed as replacements for
castor oil, which is widely used in the vast majority of tire
curing bladders.
The Struktol plasticizers exhibit low volatility;
furthermore, migration of plasticizer from the bladder
during extended service is reduced to a minimum. This
means the rubber doesn’t become stiff through extended
use, thus greatly improving resistance to flex cracking.
Struktol has also managed to decouple the relationship
between tension set and flex fatigue, ensuring that the
superior flex fatigue resistance does not compromise
tension set properties. These two parameters are of
major importance to the expected service lifetime of
curing bladders.
The company’s head of chemistry and technology,
Volker Börger, will reveal more in his presentation ‘New
plasticizers for improved service life of tire curing bladders’

Computer Modeling of
Tires Within a Full Vehicle
System and Models in a
Simulation Environment
February 24, 25, 26, 2020
This course will be held concurrently with Tire Technology
Expo 2020 in Hannover, Germany, on February 24, 25, 26, 2020 –
commencing one day before the expo and main conference.
This course covers the computer modeling of tires within a full vehicle system. It is aimed at engineers and
researchers working in both industry and academia. The subject matter will be of primary interest to vehicle
dynamicists, for whom the tire is the primary force and moment generation element on the vehicle.
Tires are not especially complex but are deeply counterintuitive; practitioners require an understanding of tire
behavior and the range and capability of existing models in order to generate full system models to predict the
dynamic performance of a vehicle – both for comfort and for active safety.

The course will start with an overview of the force and moment characteristics generated in the tire contact patch,
progress through the way in which these are captured through laboratory testing, and complete with the empirical
models for usefully accurate representation. Aircraft tire models will also be covered, as will the development of
physical tire models to predict the interaction of the tire with road obstacles and terrain for durability analysis.

Tire manufacturers simply apply a QA code
to their tire label or directly onto the sidewall.
For labels this can be achieved by using a
thermal printer; however, the safest option
would be to apply the QA code directly to
the tire sidewall using an inkjet applicator.
These inkjet applicators are relatively
inexpensive and can easily be added into
