Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic — Determination of abrasion resistance using the Improved Lambourn test machine
The abrasion loss resulting from the slip caused by the difference in circumferential speed between a disc-shaped rubber test piece and an abrasive wheel, which are driven to rotate independently with their circumferences pressed against each other by a specified load, is determined. The test result can be reported as the volume loss per unit time or per unit running distance, and/or as an abrasion resistance index compared to a reference compound.
As the Improved Lambourn test machine is capable of setting various abrasive conditions, such as slip rate, sliding speed and load, independently, this method is suitable for the evaluation, under a wide range of severity conditions, of compounds for a range of rubber products, especially tyres. An example of the testing of tyre tread rubber is given in an annex.
