Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic -
Determination of shear modulus and
adhesion to rigid plates -
Part 1: Quadruple-shear methods
(Second revision)
(ISO 1827:2016, IDT)
This document specifies methods for the determination of the modulus in shear and the strength of
bonds of rubber to metal or other rigid plates, using rubber bonded between four parallel plates.
Method A describes the determination of the modulus in shear.
Method B describes the determination of the strength of the bonds.
The methods are applicable primarily to test pieces prepared in the laboratory under standard
conditions, such as can be used to provide data for the development and control of rubber compounds
and methods of manufacture of bonded shear units.
