VDI 3822 Blatt 2.2.9:2017-05

The standard describes characteristic damage patterns of elastomer products resulting caused by climate-induced stress and presents mechanisms of damage in order to allow for a comparison in the individual event of a damage. Advice is given to assess damage causes and to find the potential hypothesises and mechanisms of damages. The gained knowledge forms the basis for specific measures for a damage remedy and the avoidance of future damages. Individual cases of damage are considered as well as cases of series of damage occurring on individual products.
