Abstract
Six different carbon blacks covering a wide range of surface area and structure are studied using a model SBR/BR tread compound formulation with a modified ASTM E-303 Pendulum Skid Tester. It is demonstrated th at two different mechanisms are instrumental in affecting traction. In general, high surface area, or tint, higher structure and larger carb on black volume fraction are all useful for improving the friction. Ho wever, at higher temperature conditions and in dry environment, the ti nt and the carbon black volume fraction are the two more important par ameters for dry traction.
