DESCRIPTION:
The book attempts to analyse fracture surfaces of simple rubber and rubber components and to correlate the failure/strength properties with the morphology of fracture surface. Although there is literature coming out from every corner of the world on fracture surface morphology, there is no single book devoted to this important class of material, namely rubber. In spite of the best efforts of technologists, rubber components fail in service from time to time. The first six chapters deal with simple rubber and rubber-based com posites failed under controlled mode, namely, tensile, tear, fatigue, and abrasion. Needless to say a similar attempt in the field of metallurgy has solved many intricate problems which are beyond the reach of simple mathematical analysis. It is the purpose of the present book to treat under a single title the morphology of fracture surfaces obtained from tear, fatigue, abrasion and combinations of these. As such, this book may serve as a guideline for further development of the subject in this field.. The remaining four chapters deal with the failure of rubber products and, hence, involve complicated
Only book on the topic! Got it through inter-library loan. Along with "Failure of Plastic and Rubber Products" and "Rubber Engineering Handbook" and "Corrosion of Polymers and Elastomers" one can finally understand and interpret rubber failures.
