Butyl rubber
Keeping air in the tires is essential for electric vehicles, as this can directly impact the electric vehicle range. Typically, electric vehicles put more pressure on tires while offering a more efficient powertrain than Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles.
Underinflated tires are one area that can cause a negative impact on vehicle efficiency. Underinflation can reduce a vehicle’s range by between 3% and 7%, and can also shorten an electric vehicle’s tire life between 5% and 16%*.
To avoid premature tire wear and replacement, and increase value to customers, our product suite includes materials such as Exxon™ Halobutyl rubber, which helps electric vehicles maintain tire pressure and extend their range.
