Summary of Test Method3.1 Resilience is determined as the ratio of rebound heightto drop height of a metal p
9、lunger of prescribed mass and shapewhich is allowed to fall on the rubber specimen.4. Significance and Use4.1 Resilience is a function of both dynamic modulus andinternal friction of a rubber. It is very sensitive to temperaturechanges and to depth of penetration of the plunger.Consequently, resilie
10、nce values from one type of reboundinstrument may not, in general, be predicted from results onanother type of rebound instrument.4.2 This test method is used for development and compari-son of materials. It may not directly relate to end-use perfor-mance.5. Apparatus5.1 A diagram of the essential f

The resilience scale shall be marked in 100equally spaced divisions.5.3.1 The top of the plunger should be in line with 100 onthe scale when the plunger is locked in the elevated position.Some models of the apparatus do not meet this requirement,but may be m
18、odified to do so.5.4 The descent of the plunger and its ensuing ascent(rebound) is guided by a vertical rod (plunger guide). In orderto minimize friction between the plunger and the vertical rod,a means shall be provided for leveling the base of theinstrument and adjusting the perpendicularity of th
19、e verticalrod to the instrument base.5.4.1 The bottom of the vertical rod shall havea4mmdiameter sharp point formed by a 60 angle, to secure thelocation of the bottommost end of the vertical rod. This pointshould indent the test specimen, providing a secure location forthe free end of the guide rod.
20、5.4.2 The plunger shall be allowed to rest at the lowest pointof travel and act as a guide to position the rod in the center ofthe stabilizer, as is visually practical under 10 magnification,as it is lowered onto the test specimen.5.5 An opaque shield may be mounted between the operatorand the plung

The specimen shall be cutfrom a slab or specifically molded so that the point of plungerimpact is a minimum distance of 14 mm (0.55 in.) from theedge of the specimen.6.2.1 Any variation from the standard test specimen shall bereported (see 11.3).6.3 Alternative specimens ma

The resultsobtained with these specimens will not necessarily be identicalwith those obtained using a so

Therefore, if plied specimens are used, their curetime should be appropriately lower than that of unpliedspecimens used for comp
