ASTM D1149 Standard Test Methods for Rubber Deterioration, Cracking in an Ozone Controlled Environment

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM D1149 standard. These test methods are used to estimate the effect of exposure under dynamic or static conditions of surface tensile stress in an atmosphere containing certain levels of ozone concentration, expressed as partial pressure.

The compounds may be molded or extruded soft rubber and other specified materials or determined empirically. The influence of naturally occurring sunlight or light from artificial sources is excluded.

The specified conditions of exposure to ozone in controlled environments are more rapid compared to outdoor exposure. These accelerated ozone testing methods may not yield results associated with outdoor exposure tests or service performance.

All materials, instruments or equipment used for the determination of mass, force, size, ozone concentration, partial pressure, temperature, velocity and gas exchange rate shall have direct traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology or other internationally recognized bodies.

Values ​​stated in SI units will be accepted as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
