Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic — Determination of adhesion to a rigid substrate — Part 2: Adhesion of a soft thermoplastic elastomer layer

Caoutchouc vulcanisé ou thermoplastique — Détermination de l'adhérence à un substrat rigide — Partie 2: Adhérence d'une couche d'élastomère thermoplastique souple

Abstract / scope

This document specifies a test method for assessing the peel strength of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to a rigid substrate. It is mainly applicable to soft components in the Shore A hardness range.

This document specifies a test piece but not the injection moulding tool for its manufacture. Hence, it is possible that different results are obtained for test pieces produced using different injection moulding tools.
