Patent Summary
Reinforcement member and layer for elastomeric products, particularly vehicle tires, comprising fibers made from regenerated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with an intrinsic viscosity of 0.86 to 0.98 dL/g. The fibers are produced by depolymerizing PET waste into monomers and then polycondensing them. The resulting fibers have a consistent product quality and can be used as a sustainable alternative to traditional PET fibers.
