Use advice for data set Users implementing this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) should note that the data reflects the situation as of January 1st, 2014. Methodological considerations such as system boundaries definition, allocation procedures, and use phase behavior should be modeled consistent with the time and technological applicability of the data. It's vital to ensure that comparisons or evaluations are made within the context of the data time frame and without extrapolating the results beyond the specified technological practices.
Technical purpose of product or process This dataset describes the production of tires through complex processes including compound blending, rolling, extrusion, packet ring production, cutting and forming, vulcanizing, and testing. The primary materials used in this process are natural rubber, synthetic rubber, carbon black, silicon dioxide, zinc oxide, stearic acid, lubricating oil, processing agents, and active clay. The four main production techniques are compound blending, rolling and extrusion, cutting and forming, and vulcanizing and testing. The data is intended for lifecycle assessment studies to optimize tire production processes, assess environmental impacts, and potentially improve resource efficiency within the tire manufacturing industry.

General comment on data set the production stage is quite complex andincludes the processes of compound blending, rolling, extrusion, packet ring production, cutting and forming, vulcanizing, and testing. We combined closely related processes toavoid allocation. The following four main production processes were identified: compound blending, rolling and extrusion,cutting and forming, and vulcanizing and testin
