(8)Jul-14-09
Much of the noise generated by cars is a result of friction between the tires and the pavement. A newly developed rubber compound has been able to drastically reduce the amount of amount of noise generated between tire and tarmac.

The new compound was developed by Trelleborg, a company that specializes in polymer based acoustic materials, most of which are used in automotive applications. According the engineers at the company, the new rubber will reduce the amount of friction noise drastically, while simultaneously increasing the longevity of the part in question by up to 50%.
