Flexible cellular polymeric materials - Determination of hardness (indentation technique) (ISO 2439:2008)

The indentation hardness of flexible cellular materials is a measure of their load-bearing properties. This International Standard specifies four methods (A to D) for the determination of indentation hardness and one method (E) for determination of compressive deflection coefficient and hysteresis loss rate of flexible cellular materials. Annex A provides a summary of test parameters and typical force-indentation graphs obtained with these methods. These five methods are applicable only to latex foam, urethane foam and PVC foam of the open-cell type. The methods specified can be used for testing finished articles and for the characterization of bulk material. This International Standard specifies the following methods: a) Method A - Determination of the 40 %/30 s indentation hardness index, which gives a single indentation measurement for laboratory test purposes; b) Method B - Determination of the 25 %-40 %-65 %/30 s indentation hardness characteristics, which provides information about the shape of the hardness indentation curve; c) Method C - Determination of the 40 % indentation hardness check, which is a quick procedure suitable for quality control testing; d) Method D - Determination of the 25 %/20 s low indentation hardness index, which is a quick procedure suitable as an inspection test; e) Method E - Determination of the compressive deflection coefficient and hysteresis loss rate, which gives additional information about the load-bearing properties of materials. The results obtained by these methods relate only to the test conditions specified and cannot, in general, be used directly for design purposes.

Weich-elastische polymere Schaumstoffe - Bestimmung der Härte (Eindruckverfahren) (ISO 2439:2008)

Die Eindruckhärte weich-elastischer Schaumstoffe ist ein Maß für deren Belastungseigenschaften. Diese Internationale Norm legt vier Verfahren (A bis D) zur Bestimmung der Eindruckhärte und ein Verfahren (E) zur Bestimmung des Druckverformungskoeffizienten und des Hystereseverlustes von weich-elastischen Schaum¬stoffen fest. Anhang  A enthält eine Zusammenfassung von Prüfparametern und üblichen Kraft-Verformungs-Diagrammen die nach diesem Verfahren ermittelt wurden.
Diese fünf Verfahren sind nur auf Latex-, (Poly)urethanschaumstoffe und PVC Schaumstoffe des offenen Zell¬typs anwendbar. Die beschriebenen Verfahren können zur Prüfung von Fertigerzeugnissen und zur Charak¬terisierung von Blockmaterial einge¬setzt werden.
Diese Internationale Norm legt die folgenden Prüfverfahren fest:
a)   Verfahren A — Bestimmung des Eindruckhärte-Index (40 %/30 s), das eine Einzelmessung der Ein¬drückung für Laborprüfungen liefert;
b)   Verfahren B — Bestimmung der Eindruckhärte-Charakteristik (25 % 40 % 65 %/30 s), das Informationen über den Kurvenverlauf der Eindruckhärte liefert;
c)   Verfahren C — Überprüfung der Eindruckhärte (40 %), das ein Schnellverfahren für die Qualitätskontrolle ist;
d)   Verfahren D — Bestimmung des unteren Eindruckhärte-Index (25 %/20 s), das ein als Überprüfung geeignetes Schnellverfahren ist;.
e)   Verfahren E — Bestimmung des Druckverformungskoeffizienten und des Hystereseverlustes, das zusätz¬liche Informationen über Belastungseigenschaften von Materialien liefert.
Die mit diesen Verfahren erhaltenen Ergebnisse beziehen sich nur auf die angegebenen Prüfbedingungen und können im Allgemeinen nicht ohne wWeiteres für konstruktive Zwecke angewendet werden.

Matériaux polymères alvéolaires souples - Détermination de la dureté (technique par indentation) (ISO 2439:2008)

La dureté par indentation des matériaux alvéolaires souples est une mesure des caractéristiques de portance. L'ISO 2439:2008 spécifie quatre méthodes de détermination (A à D) de la dureté par indentation et une méthode de détermination (E) du coefficient de fléchissement en compression et du taux de perte par hystérésis des matériaux alvéolaires souples. L'Annexe A fournit un récapitulatif des paramètres d'essai ainsi que des graphiques types force-indentation obtenus à l'aide de ces méthodes.
Ces cinq méthodes sont uniquement applicables à la mousse de latex, à la mousse d'uréthanne et à la mousse de PVC à alvéoles ouverts. Les méthodes spécifiées peuvent être utilisées pour les essais de produits finis et pour la caractérisation des matériaux bruts.
L'ISO 2439:2008 spécifie les méthodes suivantes:
Méthode A — Détermination de l'indice de dureté par indentation de 40 %/30 s, qui donne une simple mesure de l'indentation pour les essais en laboratoire;
Méthode B — Détermination des caractéristiques de dureté par indentation de 25 %-40 %-65 %/30 s, qui donne des informations sur la forme de la courbe de la dureté par indentation;
Méthode C — Contrôle pour la détermination de la dureté par indentation de 40 %, qui constitue un mode opératoire rapide adapté aux essais de contrôle de la qualité;
Méthode D — Détermination de l'indice de dureté par indentation faible de 25 %/20 s, qui constitue un mode opératoire rapide adapté aux essais de contrôle;
Méthode E — Détermination du coefficient de fléchissement en compression et du taux de perte par hystérésis, qui fournit des informations supplémentaires relatives aux caractéristiques de portance des matériaux.
Les résultats obtenus à l'aide de ces méthodes se rapportent uniquement aux conditions d'essai spécifiées et ne peuvent pas, en général, être utilisés pour la conception.

ISO 2439:2008(E) iv © ISO 2008 – All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 2439 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee SC 4, Products (other than hoses). This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 2439:1997 and ISO 2439:1997/Cor.1:1998), which has been technically revised. Major modifications in this revised text are: a) change in Scope to cover five methods; b) inclusion of Figure 1 to illustrate the force-indentation curve; and c) inclusion of informative annexes.
