Historical Standard: ASTM D2228-04 Standard Test Method for Rubber Property-Relative Abrasion Resistance by the Pico Abrader Method
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D2228
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the abrasion resistance of vulcanized (thermoset) rubbers, thermoplastic elastomers, and elastomeric and similar materials to a standardized reference system. A standardized set of reference compounds is used to calculate relative abrasion resistance. These reference compounds are also used to determine the relative performance, within a permissible range, of the cutting knives used in performing the test.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 All materials, instruments, or equipment used for the determination of mass, force, or dimension shall have traceability to the National Institute for Standards and Technology, or other internationally recognized organization parallel in nature.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
