An extremely high gas barrier resin was highly oriented and uniformly distributed in a rubber matrix layer by layer by the micro‐layer coextrusion technology and a special composite laminating device. The resulting composite had excellent gas barrier properties because of its alternating multilayer structure. Experimental tire samples were prepared and tested for high‐speed, endurance, and pressure performance. The results showed that because the barrier resin was evenly dispersed in the rubber matrix, the tire inner liner made of the composite showed excellent fatigue resistance and gas barrier performance.
