Abstract
This article deals with the effect of mechanical properties of a rubber compound on tyre wear. For detection purposes, samples of thirteen types of rubber compounds were made, used, and processed in practice. Their hardness was measured with an IRHD (International Rubber Hardness Degree) hardness tester; tensile strength and ductility measurements were carried out at a universal testing facility, Instron 4466. A rapid wear test was conducted on a roller abrasive machine. All measurements were assessed and compared. Selected original results are listed in this article.
