Mathematical representation of creep for high-temperature performance of nylon6.6 tire materials

A creep model that describes the creep characteristics of nylon6.6 tire materials is proposed. An equation resulting from the model was used to fit the experimental curves by nonlinear regression. The results outline a good correlation between theoretical and experimental curves.
