Recently, Shandong Linglong Tire Co., Ltd. announced that it has cooperated with the team of Professor Zhang Liqun from Beijing University of Chemical Technology and Professor Wang Zhonglin from the Beijing Institute of Nano Energy and Systems, Chinese Academy of Sciences to develop green power-generating tires with intelligent sensing function.

 learned that this new tire technology is mainly applied to white carbon black reinforced green tires, using friction nano-generators, recycling the energy generated by tires and ground friction, and converting the generated static electricity into usable energy.

According to the partner, based on this technology, the energy wasted by the tires in the movement can be recycled, which is of great significance for the future energy conservation and emission reduction and energy crisis.

The test data shows that 9cm2 of this kind of tire tread material can get 21μA current output and 150V voltage in the laboratory. It is estimated that each car can save 800kJ energy per year according to the high value of 500W/m2 in the current report. Given that replacing all of the world's vehicles with this power-generating tires, we can save the equivalent of 2.5*10^8 kg of gasoline.

Linglong Tire said that after tens of months, the three parties have cooperated to prepare the first generation of friction nano-power green smart tires, and the results have won the first prize of the national new concept tire design competition co-organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology and CPCIA. It was unanimously recognized and praised by the judges.
