DIN 53512 is the rubber and elastomer test method for rebound resilience using a Schob pendulum. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What DIN 53512 Covers
It measures the rebound resilience of rubber with a Schob pendulum, giving the percentage of energy returned after impact as a measure of elasticity.
How the Test Is Run
The Schob pendulum strikes the rubber specimen and its rebound height is measured against the drop, and the resilience is calculated as the returned energy fraction.
Why It Matters
Resilience characterizes rubber elasticity and damping; a calibrated Schob pendulum and controlled conditioning are used.
