Rubber Adhesion Test

At white cross rubber products we use a variety of testing methods to ensure the quality of our products.

Rubber adhesion test.

Our 3300 series and 5900 series universal testing systems meet this specification and provide an appropriate solution for this test application. There is no known correlation to other adhesion test methods pull off tape etc. Adhesion testing is a critical aspect of multi component rubber products and frequently should be considered for both rubber to rubber interfaces and rubber to reinforcement interfaces. On metal substrates a more formal version of the knife test is the tape test.

The standard requires that the testing machine conform to practices described in astm e4. There are many conditions that can affect the adhesion of rubber to various substrates such as metal and fabrics. The acceptable value of adhesion measured will of course vary from product to product due to different rubber formulations flexible substrates and types of products. D816 06 2016 standard test methods for rubber cements.

The brittle ductile transition phenomenon is very important in polymer appli. Rubber hose and belting. H adhesion 90 180 peel test tyre cord adhesion test tca t and co axial shear pull out test cspt. Common application examples that use tests in astm d429 are vehicle engine mounts vehicle suspension bushings rubber coated metal parts and rubber lined tanks and containers.

The acceptable level of adhesion will vary from on. This test standard is divided into methods a through h. Pressure sensitive tape is applied and removed over cuts made in the coating. Adhesion testing for rubber adhesion to flexible and rigid substrates as well as the adhesive bonding of parts are an important properties for designers to understand when evaluating materials.

A standard method for the application and performance of this test is available in astm d6677. From peel or stripping strength to measurements at temperature ardl can provide the. Astm d429 test standard determines the adhesion of rubber to rigid metal substrates. 4 1 these test methods are used to ensure the quality of a product by determining the force per unit width required to separate a rubber layer from a flexible substrate such as fabric fibre wire or sheet metal.

Astm d429 determines the adhesion strength of rubber to rigid materials such as metals.
