Flexible cellular polymeric materials - Determination of fatigue by constant-load pounding (ISO 3385:2014)

EN ISO 3385 specifies a method for the determination of loss in thickness and loss in hardness of flexible cellular materials intended for use in load-bearing applications such as upholstery. It provides a means of assessing the service performance of flexible cellular materials based on rubber latex or polyurethane used in load-bearing upholstery. The method is applicable both to standard size test pieces cut from slabstock material and to shaped components. The measured loss in thickness and loss in hardness are related to, but are not necessarily the same as, the losses likely to occur in service. This international Standard is not intended to function as a detailed engineering design specification for fatigue apparatus.

Weich-elastische polymere Schaumstoffe - Bestimmung der Ermüdung im Dauerschwingversuch mit Stoßbelastung unter konstanter Kraft (ISO 3385:2014)

Diese Internationale Norm beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Minderung von Dicke und Härte bei
Weichschaumstoffen, die für Anwendungen unter Belastung vorgesehen sind, zum Beispiel als lasttragende
Polsterwerkstoffe.
Dieses Prüfverfahren bietet eine Möglichkeit zur Einschätzung des Gebrauchsverhaltens von Weichschaumstoffen
aus Latex oder Polyurethan, die als lasttragende Polsterwerkstoffe eingesetzt werden.
Das Verfahren ist sowohl anwendbar auf Standardprobekörper, die aus Blockschaummaterial herausgeschnitten
sind, als auch auf geformte Polsterteile. Die gemessenen Verringerungen der Dicke und der Härte
werden in Beziehung gesetzt zu möglicherweise auch weiteren Eigenschaftsminderungen, die mit einer
gewissen Wahrscheinlichkeit während des Gebrauchs eintreten.
Diese Internationale Norm stellt keine detaillierte technische Spezifikation für die Konstruktion des bei der
Ermüdungsprüfung verwendeten Geräts dar. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Hersteller dieser
Prüfgeräte über die notwendige Fachkompetenz verfügen, um die festgelegten wesentlichen Anforderungen
zu erfüllen. Ferner wird ein kommerzieller Schutz der einzelnen Bauausführungen durch Copyright oder
Patente vorausgesetzt.

Matériaux polymères alvéolaires souples - Détermination de la fatigue par indentation à charge constante (ISO 3385:2014)

L'ISO 3385:2014 spécifie une méthode de détermination des pertes d'épaisseur et de dureté des matériaux alvéolaires souples destinés à être utilisés dans des applications porteuses comme les rembourrages. Elle apporte un moyen d'évaluation des performances en service des matériaux alvéolaires souples à base de latex caoutchouc ou de polyuréthane, utilisés dans les rembourrages porteurs.
La méthode est applicable à la fois à des éprouvettes normales découpées dans un bloc de matériau et dans des éléments façonnés. Les pertes d'épaisseur et de dureté mesurées sont liées aux pertes susceptibles de se produire en cours d'utilisation, mais ce ne sont pas nécessairement les mêmes.
L'ISO 3385:2014 internationale n'est pas destinée à faire office de spécification technique détaillée relative à la conception des machines d'essai de fatigue.

Penjeni polimerni materiali - Mehke pene - Ugotavljanje utrujenosti materiala s sunkovitim obremenjevanjem s konstantno silo (ISO 3385:2014)

Standard EN ISO 3385 določa metodo za ugotavljanje izgube debeline in trdote penjenih polimernih materialov, namenjenih uporabi v nosilnih strukturah, kot je oblazinjeno pohištvo. Podaja način za ocenjevanje učinkovitosti penjenih polimernih materialov, temelječih na elastomernem lateksu ali poliuretanu, ki se uporablja pri oblazinjanju pohištva. Metoda se uporablja za preskušance standardne velikosti, izrezane iz penjenega materiala, in za oblikovane sestavne dele. Izmerjena izguba debeline in trdote je povezana z izgubami pri uporabi izdelkov, vendar jim ni nujno enaka. Ta mednarodni standard ni zasnovan zato, da bi ga uporabljali kot podrobno specifikacijo za utrujanje materiala.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Flexible cellular polymeric materials — Determination of
fatigue by constant-load pounding
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of loss in thickness and loss in
hardness of flexible cellular materials intended for use in load-bearing applications such as upholstery.
It provides a means of assessing the service performance of flexible cellular materials based on rubber
latex or polyurethane used in load-bearing upholstery.
The method is applicable both to standard size test pieces cut from slabstock material and to shaped
components. The measured loss in thickness and loss in hardness are related to, but are not necessarily
the same as, the losses likely to occur in service.
This international Standard is not intended to function as a detailed engineering design specification
for fatigue apparatus.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 2439:2008, Flexible cellular polymeric materials — Determination of hardness (indentation technique)
3 Principle
Repeated indentation of a test piece by an indentor smaller in area than the test piece, the maximum
load reached during each cycle being kept within specified limits. The typical loading cycle is shown in
Figure A.1.
4 Apparatus
4.1 Pounding test machine of either Type A (see 4.2) or Type B (see 4.3), having the following
parts.
4.1.1 Plane platen, capable of fully supporting the test piece, and suitably vented with holes
approximately 6 mm in diameter at approximately 20 mm pitch in order to allow air to escape from the
test piece.
4.1.2 Indentor, having an overall diameter of 250 mm ± 1 mm with a 25 mm ± 1 mm radius at its lower
edge, provided with a device for applying a maximum force of 750 N ± 20 N during the loading cycle. The
indentor shall be rigidly fixed to its guide and its surface shall be smooth but not polished.
The machine shall be capable of oscillating either the platen (4.1.1) carrying the test piece, or the indentor
towards the other in a vertical direction at a rate of (70 ± 5) strokes per minute. The amplitude of the
stroke shall be adjustable.
The indentor shall be linked to a re-settable counting device which displays the number of compression
cycles performed during the test.
