INTRODUCTION
• Tyre is a pressure vessel and cord keeps it dimensionally stable.
• Tyres have to carry heavy loads, steel and fabric cords are used in the construction to reinforce rubber compound and provide strength.
• Tyre yarns of polyester, rayon, nylon, aramid, glass, or steel are twisted to 5 to 12 turns per inch.

FUNCTION OF PARTS OF TYRE
• Tread – it is thick layer (approx. 18-20 mm) of rubber which comes into contact with road.
• Rib – it is designed for noise suppression.• Grooves – to traction in all weather, directional control, cool
running and all rolling resistance.
• Sips – serves as the support for the wheel moving on the road.
• Shoulder – upper portion of the side wall just below the tread edge that affects tyre heat behavior and cornering characteristics.
• Cap plies – main load baring components layers of fabric cord extending from bead to bead to reinforce the tyre and maintain the shape.

FUNCTIONS OF PARTS OF TYRE
• Steel belt –located below cap plies to increase tensile strength of tyre. steel belt or layer provides well balanced combination of rubber & fabric. Thickness is 0.2 to 0.38 mm. this are the steel cord plated with copper or zinc.
• Radial plies – thin layer of rubber inside the tyre containing compressed air tube.
• Sidewall –portion between tread to bead. it is rubber sheet 1.5 to 3.5 mm thick protecting tube from any kind of mechanical or physical damage and moisture penetration.
• bead chafer – narrow strip of flex material around the outside of the bead that protects tyre against wear & tear and prevent dirt and moisture from getting into the tyre.
• Bead – structure composed of high tensile strength steel wire which holds the tyre assembly onto the rim of the wheel for handling performance.

RAW MATERIAL IN TYRE CORD
![Page 8: Tyre cord Technical textiles. CONTENTS Introduction Parts & structure of tyre cord Function of parts Classification of tyres Raw material in](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d8c5503460f94a735d7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
PROPERTIES OF NYLON 66
• Nylon 66 tends to form strong interchain hydrogen bonds. This results in a stronger & more crystalline polymer that softens or melts at relatively higher temperature.
• It has a higher tenacity and is less subjected to shrinkage.
• Better fatigue resistance.
• Higher resonance frequency.
• No flat spotting.

Structure of Tyre Cord Fabric
The tyre cord fabric is comprised of warp cords oriented in the longitudinal direction and weft yarns oriented in the lateral direction. The warp cords are used in reinforcing pneumatic tires.

TYRE CORD MANUFACTURING
• The cord fabric consists of yarns of a linear density of 500 tex in warp and common cotton yarns with a linear density of 16.6-25 tex in weft.
• The properties of cord depend on the number of plies of thinner and number of twists to be given in yarn.

Processing of Tyre Cord
• Most tyre companies produce tyre cord from high tenacity continuous filament yarn supplied by various fiber manufacturers.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Steps of manufacturing tyre cord-1. Spinning- By melt spinning we get filaments.
![Page 13: Tyre cord Technical textiles. CONTENTS Introduction Parts & structure of tyre cord Function of parts Classification of tyres Raw material in](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d8c5503460f94a735d7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2. Twisting
Its purpose is to-• To prevent filament breakage.• Improved coherence of yarns.• To improve fatigue resistance.• To improve weaving workability.

3. Cabling- It is done by ply cable winding machine. Yarn tension of about 0.02 cN/tex is recommended.
4. Weaving- 100 or 1500 cords with 3-1 pick per cm of light Cotton, Rayon, PET yarn threads.
A type of fabric is obtained in one direction of warp as far stronger than in the other direction.

5. Dipping- During Tire cord dipping process an Adhesive was applied & the fabric is treated under controlled condition of time.
After dipping fabric passes through vacuum suction lines to remove the excess dip before entering a drying oven, where water is removed.
