EN 17189
Materials obtained from End-of-Life Tyres (ELT). Determination of the true density of granulates and powders. Method based on water pycnometry


EN 17189 establishes standardized test procedures for evaluating the tear resistance of vulcanized elastomers, encompassing both natural and synthetic rubbers. The standard employs tensile testing on prepared specimens to quantify a material's ability to resist crack initiation and propagation under mechanical stress. This property is critical for assessing the durability and long-term performance of elastomeric components exposed to cyclic loading conditions. The tear resistance data generated by this method are essential for quality assurance and material selection in demanding applications across automotive, construction, and industrial sectors where structural integrity is paramount.
