Adhesion

    Adhesion testing is a critical aspect of multi-component rubber products, and frequently should be considered for both rubber-rubber interfaces and rubber-reinforcement interfaces.

    • Shear testing of reinforcements to rubber adhesion
      •Steel cord
      •Bead wire
      •Textiles: nylon, polyester, rayon and polyaramids
    • Fracture tear / peel force adhesion testing of rubber-rubber interfaces
    • Fracture tear / peel force adhesion testing of rubber-to-rigid surfaces
    • Roller peel adhesion testing
    • Strebler tear adhesion testing
