Siping is a process of cutting thin slits across a rubber surface to improve traction in wet or icy conditions. Siping was invented and patented in 1923 under the name of John F. Sipe . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The story told on various websites is that, in the 1920s, Sipe worked in a slaughterhouse and grew tired of slipping on the wet floors.

The compaction/contact process works both in the direction of travel for propulsion and braking, but also laterally for cornering. [ 5 ] The deeper the snow that the tire rolls through, the higher the resistance encountered by the tire, as it compacts the snow it encounters and plows some of it to either side.

The first commercial use of siping was a year earlier, where Tecalemit used a knife-cutting process almost identical to Sipe's original patent as a means of recutting worn treads. Europe also abandoned the slow process of literally knife cutting in favour of steel blades in the tread moulds, forming the sipes by moulding.
Regulation of biological processes occurs when any process is modulated in its frequency, rate or extent. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule.

Rubber, also called India rubber, latex, Amazonian rubber, caucho, or caoutchouc, [1] as initially produced, consists of polymers of the organic compound isoprene, with minor impurities of other organic compounds. Types of polyisoprene that are used as natural rubbers are classified as elastomers.
