ASTM D4986
Standard Test Method for Horizontal Burning Characteristics of Cellular Polymeric Materials


ASTM D4986 establishes the test method for evaluating abrasion resistance of elastomeric and polymeric materials using the Pico abrasimeter apparatus. The method measures material mass loss resulting from friction against a standardized abrasive surface, providing a direct assessment of surface durability performance. This standard applies to rubber compounds, elastomers, and plastics used in wear-intensive applications such as tires, industrial components, and consumer products. The test enables comparative evaluation of different materials and serves as a quality control tool during compound manufacturing and product development.
