Abstract
The cord pull-out force of the tire cord adhesion test (TCAT) is dependent on both cord-rubber adhesion energy and the Young's modulus of the matrix rubber of the TCAT testpiece. In order to determine the adhesion energy from the cord pull-out force, the rubber modulus must also be known. This paper describes a simple procedure for determining the rubber modulus from the load-deflection curve, which is obtained when the cord pull-out force is determined. An extra test operation (for determining modulus) is thereby avoided.
