Summary of Test Method4.1 A cord specimen is sandwiched between two layers ofrubber compound test stock in a form resembling an “H,”placed in a heat

11、ed mold, and cured at a specified temperatureand pressure. The test specimen sandwich is then cut to createan H-test specimen consisting of a single cord with each endembedded in the center of a tab end of the rubber test block(Fig. 1). The test specimen is placed in the grips of the tensiletester,

12、and then the grips are separated. The maximum forceobtained is the H-test adhesion force.5. Significance and Use5.1 Test Method D4776 for the determination of the H-testadhesion of reinforcing cords to rubber compounds may beused for the acceptance testing of commercial shipments ofreinforcing cords

As a mini

17、mum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens which are as homogeneous as possible and whichare from a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimens should then be randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory for testing. The average results from the twolaboratories

18、should be compared using Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable probability level chosen by thetwo parties before testing begins. If a bias is found, either itscause must be found and corrected or the purchaser and thesupplier must agree to interpret future test results in light of thekn

20、lude adhesive type, adhesive application procedure, adhe-sive cure, fiber type, construction of cords, rubber type, rubbercure, and rubber thickness.5.3.1 The deleterious effect of ozone in combination withatmospheric moisture on the ability of adhesives to bond withrubber requires assiduous protect

21、ion of cords prior to embed-ment.5.4 The expected range of values which characterize accept-able adhesion can be determined in any cord-rubber combina-tion with experience. For this reason, the purchaser normallyestablishes a minimum level of adhesion to be obtained by thesupplier in either the supp

23、ng.Results obtained by this method cannot be used interchange-ably since there is no overall correlation between them.6. Apparatus and Materials6.1 Tensile Testing MachineAlthough a constant-rate-of-extension (CRE) tensile testing machine is preferred, aconstant-rate-of-traverse (CRT type, pendulum

24、type) may beused. The specification and methods of calibration and verifi-cation of these machines shall conform to Specification D76.The testing machine shall be equipped with an autographicrecorder (rectilinear coordinates preferred) or an interfacecomputer. There is a distinct difference between

25、the CRE andCRT type testing machines. Consequently, they cannot be usedinterchangeably unless a mathematical correlation has beenestablished and agreed upon by the purchaser and supplier.6.2 Curing Press, capable of maintaining a minimum pres-sure of 3.5 MPa 500 psi over the total area of the moldsu

The dimensions of the test specimen are controlled bythe

27、 specifications and tolerances of the mold. The dimensionsof the mold (6.40 mm 0.250 in. embedment) in Fig. 2a shallbe used for cords with a dtex of 1100/2 denier larger than1000/2 or less. The dimensions of the mold (9.52 mm 0.375in. embedment) in Fig. 2b shall be used for cords with a dtexlarger t

28、han 1100/2 denier larger than 1000/2. The slot size foreach mold shall be 1.17 mm 6 0.13 mm 0.046 in. 6 0.005in.6.4 Specimen GripsThe design of the specimen gripsshall be as shown in Fig. 3. Two grips are required.6.5 Tensioning MassesThe masses may be of the hooktype, or designed in such a manner t

29、hat they can be clamped tothe cord. In any event, the total mass shall be 50 g.6.6 Sheeted Rubber Compound, (sometimes called skimstock), supported on a non hygroscopic backing, such as aplasticizer-free plastic material. Polyethylene film has beenfound to be satisfactory. The thickness of the rubbe

30、r stockrequired to fill the mold properly shall be determined byexperience.As a guide, the thickness of the rubber stock shouldbe not less than 8 % greater than one-half of the mold cavitydepth. In any event, the thickness is agreed upon between thepurchaser and supplier.6.6.1 Rubber stock propertie

31、s are best maintained by stor-age in a cool, dry atmosphere. Excessive rubber stock moisturemay lower adhesion of some fiber/rubber composites.6.6.2 Rubber compounds exhibit wide variations in shelflife (properties suitable for good adhesion results) dependentupon both composition and storage condit

32、ion. Rubber com-pounds are usually replaced after three months; however, somemay require replacement within a few weeks. In any event,FIG. 1 H-Test SpecimenD4776/D4776M 102storage conditions and shelf life should be specified by thesupplier of the rubber compound.6.7 Timers, having 60 min capacity,1

Excess lubricant shall be wiped from the mo

34、ldand particularly from the slots provided for the cords. Thelubricant should not be applied when exposed cord is in thearea, and should only be used when absolutely necessary. Useof mold release lubricant should be reported on the test report.NOTE 1The use of mold release lubricant is not recommend

Sampling7.1 Lot SampleAs a lot sample for acceptance testing,take at random the number of primary sampling units directedin an applicable material specificati

36、on or other agreementbetween the purchaser and the supplier. Consider shippingcases of cord to be the primary sampling units. Exercisecaution in sampling and handling so that samples receiveminimum exposure to ambient atmosphere and light prior torubber embedment. This can be accomplished by storing

37、 thesample in a sealed, black plastic bag. Rayon is particularlysensitive to moisture pick-up (which negatively affects adhe-sion) and should be handled accordingly.NOTE 2A realistic specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybe

38、tween primary shipping units and within primary shipping units so as toprovide a sampling plan with meaningful producers risk, consumers risk,acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.7.2 Laboratory SampleTake at random the number ofpackages per shipping case in the lot sample directed in

Preparation of Test Specimens8.1 Cut the rubber stock in strips 6 mm 0.25 in. wide and150 mm 6.0 in. long, leaving the protective film attached.This may be done with shears or with a c

44、licker die.8.1.1 Some laboratories have fabricated larger molds toaccommodate a greater number of test specimens. In thoselaboratories, the length of the rubber stock must be adjustedaccordingly.8.2 A mold preheated to the curing temperature is preferred.NOTE 3When a preheated mold is used, the spec

45、imens must be loadedand placed in the curing press within 3 min. The use of a preheated moldwill alter the curing conditions (time and temperature) of the rubber.8.3 Remove the protective film from the rubber test strips,then place the individual rubber test strips in the mold cavitieswith the prote

46、ctive film side on top.8.4 Place the cords in the cord slots by cutting cord testspecimens allowing sufficient overhang for attaching massesand tie a knot in both ends. Take care to prevent the loss of cordtwist. The portion of the cord that is embedded in rubber mustnot be touched by the bare hand.

47、 Attach a 50 g mass on oneknotted end of the test cord. Two cords may be tied togetherand used to fill adjacent slots; a 100 g mass is used in this case(Fig. 4). Place one end of the knotted test specimen so that itis snubbed firmly against the cord slots on one side of the mold.8.5 After all the co

48、rd slots are filled, remove the protectivefilm from the additional strips of rubber and place them in themold cavities on top of the cords. The side from which theprotective film was removed will be down. Identify eachspecimen with a silver ink marking pen.8.6 Place the cover plat on the mold, then

49、remove themasses and place the mold in a preheated press. Adjust thepressure to a minimum of 3.5 MPa 500 psi with reference tothe mold surface. Vulcanize for the specified time at thespecified pressure and temperature. Immediately remove themold assembly from the hot curing press.8.7 Remove mold cover plate then carefully remove theconstructed rubber and cord test pad from the test mold cavityand cool at room temperature.
