Warning 1.Users of this document should have practical experience working in a formal laboratory. This document does not cover all possible safety hazards.
Users are responsible for taking appropriate safety and health measures and ensuring compliance with relevant national regulations.
Warning 2---Some of the steps outlined in this document may involve the use or generation of certain wastes, which may pose a hazard to the local environment.
The relevant documents should include appropriate provisions for safe operation and disposal of waste after use.
1.Scope
This document describes four methods for determining the hardness of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber on flat surfaces (standard hardness methods) and four...
Methods for determining the apparent hardness of curved surfaces (apparent hardness methods). Hardness values are expressed as the International Rubber Hardness (IRHD). These measurement methods...
The applicable hardness range is 10IRHD to 100IRHD.
The main differences between these methods lie in the diameter of the spherical indenter and the magnitude of the indentation force; the appropriate method should be selected based on the specific application. The applicable scope of each method is shown in Figure 1.
This document does not describe a method for determining hardness using a portable hardness tester, which is described in ISO 48-5.
Index number explanation.
This document specifies the following four methods for determining standard hardness.
---Method N (Routine Test). Applicable to rubber with a hardness range of 35 IRHD to 85 IRHD, and can also be used for rubber with a hardness of
Rubber in the range of 30IRHD to 95IRHD.
---Method H (High Hardness Test). Applicable to rubber with a hardness range of 85IRHD to 100IRHD.
---Method L (Low Hardness Test). Applicable to rubber with a hardness range of 10IRHD to 35IRHD.
---Method M (Micro-test). Essentially a scaled-down version of Method N (Routine test), it can be used for thinner and smaller samples.
It is suitable for rubber with a hardness range of 35IRHD to 85IRHD, and can also be used for rubber with a hardness range of 30IRHD to 95IRHD.
Note 1.Within the ranges of 85IRHD~95IRHD and 30IRHD~35IRHD, the hardness values measured using method N may differ from those measured using method H or method N, respectively.
The data obtained by L are not entirely consistent. For technical purposes, the difference is generally not significant.
Note 2.Due to various surface factors of rubber, such as surface roughness caused by abrasion, the results obtained from micro-tests may not be completely consistent with those obtained from conventional tests.
