Boring only black tire. And I wish if they are more colorful...



Black Tires

It is common sense automobile tire is black.

But there is a red tires by bicycle. The forklift will have green tire.

If there is a variety of colors of the tire in car, feel like a more design will be better?


In fact, is so opinion that whether Once you have color of the tire

at the time of training of new employees of the automaker comes out every year.

However, car tires must be black.


  • Turn black when tires make the ordinary

  • First, It mix a large amount of carbon materials in the tire.

    Roughly It will be mixed the same weight fraction with the rubber.

    The carbon has a black color to carbon. So tire will become black at this point.

    And the mix of carbon black in large quantities, it is to increase the strength of the tire.


    For example, gum it will collapse as soon as it applies a force

    in a state that does not include the previous water chewing.

    However, when the compounded the carbon black in rubber strength It increase dramatically.

    This is that it was discovered more than 100 years ago,

    but the substance as an alternative to carbon black still has not been invented.


  • The reason for the tire to black

  • So it than good It mean a variety of colors subjected to paint on the surface of the tire, and is also considered.

    it will come off as soon as it's a paint of the ground plane, but I feel it's side surface, such as good also painted the color.

    However, Its surface of the tire must be the majority is black. The reason is heat dissipation.

    Black color is easy to absorb the heat, but it's the most likely to color also release of heat to the reverse.


    For example, although we found such as smartphones of decomposition photos to occasionally listed internet,

    semiconductor components that are used is almost black.

    This is the semiconductor component is in its color to make it easier to heat dissipation.


    they will put a lot of heat so tires for automobiles to high-speed driving.

    Or change the performance of the tire can not be radiated this efficiently,

    and in the worst case damage during driving. And It is in heat radiation easily black for that.


    bicycle also has high-speed running of its own way,

    but is heat dissipation efficiency because the tire is thin shape that considerably better than automobile tires.

    However, been invented materials other than carbon black, and yet it is always possible to be color tire if it is fine tire even at high fever,

    It might be able to, such as possibly is red and blue tire in the future.
