What is the meaning of abrasion resistance?

Abrasion resistance is the ability of a fabric to resist surface wear caused by flat rubbing contact with another material. There are two different test methods commonly used by the textile industry to assess abrasion resistance: Wyzenbeek and Martindale (described in detail below).

Abrasion (mechanical) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Abrasion is the process of scuffing, scratching, wearing down, marring, or rubbing away. It can be intentionally imposed in a controlled process using an abrasive.

The TABER Abraser (Abrader) is used to perform accelerated wear testing. Referenced in numerous international standards, materials include plastics, coatings, laminates, leather, paper, ceramics, carpeting, safety glazing, and many others.

 DEFINITION OF SCRATCH AND MAR RESISTANCE. There are three elementary deformation mechanisms: elastic deformation, plastic deformation and fracture; only the latter two both contribute significantly to the mar resistance. Mar resistance characterizes the ability of the coating to resist light damage.

Abrasion testing machine

This machine has been developed for determining the resistance to abrasion/wear of natural stones and concrete products. Easy to use, electronic control of the disc speed with auto shut-off of the machine at the selected number of revolutions. The abrasion disk wheel is 70 mm thick. Supplied complete with 5 kg of white corundum FEPA grit size 80 and calibration sample
