The Korea Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS), established in 2008, has published the standard KS M 6676-2008 (2023) which outlines the methodology for determining low temperature properties of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber. This document is crucial for manufacturers and testing laboratories involved in assessing material performance under cold conditions.
The test methods described in KS M 6676-2008 (2023) provide detailed procedures to evaluate the flexibility, brittleness temperature, and other mechanical properties of rubber materials at low temperatures. These assessments are essential for ensuring that rubber products can function effectively in cold environments without suffering from embrittlement or loss of elasticity.
The standard includes various test methods such as the notched bar impact test, pendulum hardness measurement, and compression set tests, all conducted under controlled temperature conditions to simulate real-world usage scenarios. These procedures are designed to provide accurate data for rubber product development and quality control purposes.
