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

Fourth edition. The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee SC 4, Products other than hoses. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 3385:1989), which has been technically revised. — 18 p.
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.
