摘要
A fatigue peeling test has been developed to evaluate the failure of rubber to rubber interfaces under cyclic loading. Results obtained through this method have been compared to those of a typical fatigue crack growth experiment. The results show that the trends between these two failure modes are similar with the peeling necessary to drive the crack being slightly higher than the strain energy release rate at the same crack growth rate. Cyclic and time dependent contributions to the fatigue crack growth behaviour have been calculated using this test for an styrene-butadiene rubber compound and the results appear to be consistent with previous work although the origin of the cyclic contribution remains uncertain. The influence of pressure at the interface during vulcanisation has also been investigated and it has been observed that the fatigue peel behaviour is proportional to the surface area of contact developed during the curing cycle.
