Charles Goodyear and the Invention of Vulcanized Rubber. None of it would have been possible without Charles Goodyear, who in 1844 -- more than 50 years before the first rubber tires would appear on cars -- patented a process known as vulcanization.
Goodyearâs invention went on to make rubber an industry standard material and is responsible not only for the creation of Goodyear tires but all tires. The Goodyear tire company was named in honor of Charles Goodyear in 1898.
