The aim of this study to use magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2, 99%, 10 nm) as a nano-filler to increase the thermal resistance of the planes tires were mixing magnesium hydroxide parts, variety (5-20 wt.%) with basic batch tire and then exposing the material generated to direct flame-generated from oxy- acetylene torch (~3000 ºC) with a constant exposure distance to flame (10mm). Surface opposite method was used to measure the heat transmitted through the tire material. The results indicated that have been obtained from the test improved resistance of tire flammable by adding magnesium hydroxide and increase the proportion of added hydroxide.
