Abstract
The present article describes experimental research on the impact resistance of protective rubber panels. The investigation was carried out with three different types of panels made of a rubber granulate, with polypropylene glue as the binder. Thus, all three types of rubber panels were subjected to a determination and analyses of their Shore hardness. The third type of tested rubber panel was found to exhibit a higher hardness due to the higher content of glue. It was observed that the novel double-layer protective rubber panel with a higher content of glue and a lower content of granulate was able to absorb, without any visible damage, approximately 6.5-times more impact energy than the single-layer rubber panel with a higher content of granulate and a lower content of glue.
