Title
Standard Test Method for Rubber PropertyAbrasion Resistance (Rotary Drum Abrader)
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Dec 1, 2004
Scope:
This test method covers the measurement of abrasion resistance of
rubbers (vulcanized thermoset
rubbers and thermoplastic elastomers) that are subject to
abrasive/frictional wear in actual
service. The abrasion resistance is measured by moving a test piece
across the surface of an
abrasive sheet mounted to a revolving drum, and is expressed as volume
loss in cubic millimetres or
abrasion resistance index in percent. For volume loss, a smaller
number indicates better abrasion
resistance, while for the abrasion resistance index, a smaller number
denotes poorer abrasion
resistance.
Test results obtained by this test method shall not be assumed to
represent the wear behavior of
rubber products experienced in actual service.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values in parentheses are for
information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
