Abstract

The operating conditions of non-metallic elements of the air suspension of road vehicles are analyzed. The influence of deicing agents and negative temperatures on non-metallic (rubber) elements of the pneumatic spring is studied. The methods of conducting tests to assess the effect of negative temperatures and aggressive environments on non-metallic elements of the air suspension are described. It is shown that the destruction of the microstructure is caused by the action of reagents on the rubber part of the pneumatic cylinder. Keywords: road vehicles, air suspension, rubber elements, negative temperatures, deicing agent
