Synthetic

Rubber

Treads

New York, May 29. Tire treads made of a new synthetic rubber outwear the best natural rubber "possibly by as much as 30 percent," the United States Rubber Company said today.

Herbert E. Smith, President of the Company, explained that the new synthetic is made by poly- merization of Butadiene and Styrene at lower temperatures than previously used.

"This looms as the most im- portant development in synthetic rubber research since GR-S, the original general purpose synthe-

was put into production. Smith said.

He declared the implications were worldwide and many. It the now synthetic, now being tested, proves as durable as pro- mised, the United States will be nuch

less

dependent on the im- portation of natural rubber.

The

new synthetic was de- veloped by the Rubber, Chemical and Patroleum Industries, under direction of the Office of Rubber Reserve, and is being produced in Himited quantities at Government plants in Texas and Louisiana, Smith said.-Associated Press.
