The static and dynamic adhesion fatigue of rubber/cord systems is comp
ared in case of two NR based rubber compounds and two dipping solution
s applied with polyester and nylon 6,6 cords. Further variables are he
at treatment temperature and time. The correlation of static and dynam
ic adhesion fatigue is unexpectedly poor, indicating that static adhes
ion measurements should be accompanied by the adhesion fatigue tests i
f the reinforced rubber is used in dynamic application,
