Old tyres are an environmental problem,and difficult to recycle. They pile up into mountainous heaps and when they catch fire, are nearly impossible to extinguish, and ooze toxic sludge and a lot of black smoke. A large heap can burn for months.Tyres can be linked together and used to make artificial reefs,which soon become a haven for marine life(and surfers) There are many ways they can be reused:)

∙ 13y agoUnfortunately it has a relatively high reactivity with its environment, with oxygen and particularly ozone. Ozone causes surface cracking that can rapidly penetrate the component when even a low threshold value of tensile stress is applied. However, in components of fairly large cross sectional area, whilst there may be extensive surface reaction, depending upon the external stress pattern, actual penetration of the oxygen and ozone can be low, with the inside being protected by the degraded exterior.
