1、Designation: D 6588 02Standard Test Method forFatigue of Tire Cords (Disc Fatigue Test)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6588; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、 in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of fatigue oftire cords in rubber due to compression or extension, or both,using a disc fatigue te

Thevalues stated in each system are not exact equivalents; there-fore, each system shall be used independently of the other.1.3 This s

Summary of Test Method4.1 disc fatigue is a measure of t

7、he strength loss of a tirecord, which is subjected to repeated stresses. The stresses areaccomplished by subjecting the tire cords, after being cured inrubber, to repeated cycles of compression and extension.4.2 The specimen of interest is the cord after it has beenstressed and later removed from th

8、e rubber in which it wasimbedded. Cord specimens are placed between strips of rubbercompound and molded into blocks. The specimen block is thenmounted between two rotating discs that are positioned in sucha way that the specimen will undergo compression or exten-sion, or both, as the discs rotate. A

9、fter a specified number ofcycles, the cords are removed from the blocks and theirbreaking force measured on a tensile testing machine. Thefatigue, based on the unfatigued specimen strength, is ex-pressed as a percent strength loss in fatigued specimens.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is

10、not recommended for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments in the absence of reliableinformation on between-laboratory precision.5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween the reported test results for two laboratories (or more), acomparative test should be performed to det

11、ermine if there is astatistical bias between them, using competent statistical assis-tance. As a minimum, test samples should be used that are ashomogeneous as possible, that are drawn from a material fromwhich the disparate test results were obtained, and that arerandomly assigned in equal numbers

12、to each laboratory fortesting. Other fabrics with established test values may be usedfor this purpose. The test results from the two laboratoriesshould be compared using a statistical test for unpaired data, ata probability level chosen prior to the testing series. If a bias isfound, either its caus

13、e must be found and corrected, or futuretest results must be adjusted in consideration of the knownbias.6.

Sampling and Test Specimens8.1 Primary Sampling UnitConsider one roll of dippedtire cord fabric or a cord package as the primary sampling unit.8.2 Laboratory Sampling UnitAs a laboratory samplingunit, from eac

22、h primary sampling unit prepare tabby samplesby taking a sample equal to the length of cord between theregular tabby woven at the end of the roll and a special tabbywoven a short distance from the end when the roll of fabric ismanufactured. For rolls that do not have a special woven tabby,improvise

23、a tabby by the use of gummed tape or strips ofcemented fabric applied across a section of the cord fabric togive a tabby sample length at least 0.5 m (18 in.) long and atleast one tenth of the roll width wide.8.2.1 Preparation of Tabby SamplesThe handling of thesamples must be done with care. The pe

24、rson obtaining thesample should wear clean gloves. Cut the warp cords of thedipped fabric along the centerline of the special tabby for adistance equal to the width of the sample. If this distance is lessthan the full width of the fabric, cut the filling yarns of thesample and of the special and reg

25、ular tabbies in the directionparallel with the warp cords. The resulting section of cordfabric is the tabby sample. Attach the tabby sample to a pieceof cardboard or fiberboard, the length of which shall be equalto at least the length of the cord warp between tabbies. Fold thetabby portions of the s

26、ample over each end of the board, andsecure the sample to the board with pressure-sensitive tape orstaples. Use care to avoid contact of tape or staples with thearea to be tested. Handle the sample carefully. Discard anyspecimen subjected to any bend with a diameter less than 10times the yarn/cord t

27、hickness (or diameter). The board with thesample may be folded lengthwise and parallel with the warp forconvenience. Place the board with the fabric sample in a blackpolyethylene bag, or wrap it with several layers of blackpolyethylene film to protect the sample from ultraviolet (UV)and ozone.8.3 Te

Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Disc Fatigue Tester:9.1.1 Set disc in the tester parallel and 25.40 6

40、 0.02 mm (16 0.001 in.) apart. Do this by setting the angle of the right discat 0 rad (0) and adjusting the left disc to the proper distance.9.1.2 Set the tester for compression and extension condi-tions using Table 2 or Eq 1 or Eq 2.M 5 DOE2C!/2 (1)Dt5 DO1 M (2)where:M = change of the original dist

41、ance, mm (in.), if M isnegative, the distance is decreased by that amountand if M is positive, the distance is increased,DO= original distance, (25.4 mm) (1 in.),Dt= parallel testing distance of the discs,E = percent elongation/100, andC = percent compression/100.9.1.3 Make the appropriate M change

42、in the distance be-tween each pair of discs by moving the left disc in a straightline toward, or away from, the right disc until the specifiedparallel distance between the two discs has been achieved.9.1.4 Next, set the left disc to the required compression andextension settings as obtained from Tab

43、le 2, Eq1,Eq2orbychanging the angle of the left disc. Read (and record) themaximum and minimum distances between the discs.9.2 Tensile Testing Machine Setup:9.2.1 Set the gage length at 30 mm (1.2 in.), except foraramid where a gage length of 250 mm (10.0 in.) is required.9.2.2 For nylon, polyester,

44、 and rayon, use flat or bollard typeclamps and set the crosshead speed at 100 or 50 % of the gagelength per minute. For aramid, use suitable bollard type clampsand set the crosshead speed at 50 or 25 % of the gage lengthper minute.10. Conditioning10.1 Rubber compound properties are best maintained b

45、ystorage in a cool, dry atmosphere. Excessive rubber compoundmoisture may lower adhesion of some fiber/rubber composites.10.2 Store samples (tabbies) or adhesive-treated cord inmoisture-proof, UV, and ozone protective bags (aluminum-coated or black polythene bags may be sufficient) at tempera-tures

46、below 24C (75F).10.3 Condition fatigued cords and non-fatigued controlcords for at least 16 h in the standard atmosphere for testingtextiles, as described for tire cords (see Practice D 1776) priorto determining breaking force.11. Procedure11.1 Flexing Specimen Blocks:11.1.1 Determine the 25.4-mm (1

47、.0-in.) position (loadingposition) for the discs and load the specimens (blocks) in thisposition. Place the specimens in slots in the discs and slip endsof cords under the disc enclosure. Do not allow the ends tobecome damaged during tester operation. Screw the holdingclamps on top of the block ends

48、 in each disc and tighten withair driven screwdriver or other tightening device.NOTE 2If the blocks are loaded position, the elongation and compres-sion will be different from the calculated values.11.1.2 Adjust the tester to run at a speed of 2 300 to 2 700rpm (3 600 000 cycles/24 h per 24 h) using

49、 a tachometer. Otherspeeds in the range of 2 300 to 2 700 can be selected. Run thetester for the desired time (see Note 3).NOTE 3Usual running times are 6, 24, 48, and 72 h. The strength lossis not linear with the running time. Retained strength values between 90and 40 % are recommended.11.1.3 Stop the tester at the completion of flexing timerequired and promptly remove the specimen blocks (see Note4).NOTE 4The clamps can be removed while in the top position and thesamples pulled from the front position. Pull one end of sample at a timefrom slots.11.2 Cord Preparatio
