The TS 4651 EN 25978 standard published by the Turkish Standards Institute (TSE) is based on the EN 25978 standard, which is a European standard. EN 25978 Rubber or plastic coated fabrics - Determination of blocking resistance (ISO 5978) standard provides test methods for the determination of the interfacial bond strength of rubber or plastic coated fabrics.
This standard includes two separate test methods to determine the resistance of a material to wet and dry abrasion. These test methods are applied to the coated surface of coated fabrics.
Polymeric materials, which generally exhibit mechanical strength, lightness, ease of processing, and versatility, must exhibit good wear resistance to be suitable for acceptable thermal and environmental resistances.
Many rubber or plastic materials come into repeated contact with various surfaces in service environments. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the wear characteristics during the product development phase. The abrasion test is used to measure the overall durability of the material.
Rubber materials are generally very flexible materials that return to their original shape after stretching. Because rubber is conformable and robust, it can easily absorb large deformation impacts. However, when used in contact with moving parts, a micro-tearing process may occur on the rubber surface. This leads to the end of the functional life of the rubber. In many applications, high wear is the main failure mode of rubbers.
As modern industrial demands increase, new rubber or plastic compounds with improved heat, chemical, abrasion, and impact resistance are also being developed. In these applications, the adhesion strength of rubber or plastic-coated materials to different surfaces is also important. To achieve maximum rubber adhesion to metals, plastics, and fibers, a reduction in interfacial tension and interaction and chemical bonding between rubber chains are generally required. In advanced laboratories, key parameters supporting rubber and plastic adhesion, such as reactivity, compatibility, crosslinking, and surface treatments, are being tested.
