Abstract To ensure safety from skidding, attention has up to now been devoted to building rough surface roads, to the development of the proper vehicle construction with respect to this feature, and to the factor most directly involved, the tires. Special attention has been directed in connection with this latter phase to a much more open tread patterning and to the effect of decreasing tire inflation, both of which affect the life of the tire adversely. These steps neglected to take advantage of the physical effect of adhesion, which, without lowering the durability, now makes possible an enhanced contribution to the cohesive friction by the profile grooves which are of necessity retained to keep the weight down. The goal is, therefore, to provide the smooth surfaces of the tread pattern that come in contact with the road with the greatest possible physical gripping power, or adhesion. After illustrating the interfacial magnitudes with the help of a vector diagram, we shall survey the laws of boundary surface adhesion. Here the great influence of the liquid involved in wet friction becomes clear and the particularly favorable interfacial tension property of water can be assessed. Since skidding can occur only at the interfaces : rubber-water, or water-road, the requirement is as follows : both the greatest possible wetting power between rubber and water, and also between water and road surface, that is, hydrophilic properties in the rubber and hydrophilic road surfaces, in order to reduce the danger of skidding. Good insurance against skidding requires hydrophilic rubber and a hydrophilic road surface, for a tire that has been developed to be nonskidding holds on a hydrophilic road surface and skids on a hydrophobic road surface. A hydrophobic tire, on the other hand, skids on any wet road. Although considerable advances have been made with respect to safety from skidding since rubber tires were first developed for motor vehicles, with increase of speeds this problem demands our attention to a greater and greater degree. Safety from skidding can result only from the combined efforts of road and car builders, tire makers, and the chemists and physicists of all three groups.
