​With the continued growth in global transportation and industrial automation demands, the research and development of high-performance fiber skeleton materials has entered a new stage. In the production chain of cord fabrics, canvas, and various industrial textiles, SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber) latex, with its superior adhesive properties, has once again become the focus of industry attention.

On January 30, 2026, SFT Company briefly interpreted the application value of ultra-high structure (VHS) carbon black in tire formulations based on ASTM D1765 standard and a 2025 global industrial application report.

EU REACH Certification serves as the core access threshold for rubber industrial raw materials (including natural rubber, synthetic rubber (BR), cord fabric, and tire steel wire) entering the EU market, covering the entire process of substance registration, hazardous substance restrictions, and compliance declarations.

Styrene - Butadiene Rubber (SBR) - short for styrene-butadiene copolymer–has become indispensable for passenger car tire manufacturing and an ideal choice for industrial hose production. Its superior properties (wear resistance, heat resistance, anti-aging, etc.) provide critical material support for product upgrading and quality improvement in these two key sectors.

As a high-performance framework material with core properties including high strength, fatigue resistance, and structural stability, cord fabric accounts for a crucial 10% to 15% proportion in tire manufacturing, serving as the "invisible framework" supporting tire performance. Meanwhile, it demonstrates excellent adaptability in the conveyor belt sector, acting as the core material for belt cores to ensure efficient and stable material transportation. Its cross-industry application characteristics make it a preferred shared material, empowering the safe operation of the automotive industry and the efficient operation of the logistics and transportation sector.

The latest data from the General Administration of Customs shows that from January to November 2025, China's cumulative export volume of rubber tires reached 8.83 million tons, up 3.7% year-on-year. The cumulative export value reached 153.691 billion yuan, increasing by 2.5% year-on-year. This indicates that China's rubber industry has demonstrated strong competitiveness and development resilience in the complex international environment.
