ISO 1419 Standard Test for Accelerated Aging of Rubber or Plastic Coated Fabrics

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ISO 1419 standard. This standard describes four methods for assessing the resistance of coated fabrics to degradation by accelerated aging.

The aging of coated fabrics consists of subjecting test pieces with predetermined properties to a controlled degradation effect for a known period of time. The selection of the most suitable test methods, aging time and temperature will depend on the purpose of the test and the type of fabric coated.

The properties used to measure the degradation of coated fabrics may be strength properties, stretching, blocking or any other desired physical or chemical property. The properties can be investigated with the selection of appropriate test methods.

As a result of natural aging, PVC coated fabrics may become volatile and lose their plasticity, which will adversely affect the performance of the coating over time. The extent to which a particular material will be affected will depend on the formulation of the coating, so it is desirable to be able to evaluate this property. The method described is designed to accelerate the loss of volatile substances by exposing the test pieces to a high temperature.
