(2) Ozone crack test The occurrence of ozone cracks on the rubber surfaces due to ozone attack have been reported in all over the world. Elastomeric bearings should be necessarily ozone-resistant. We perform verification tests for ozone cracks according to the major specifications and under stricter conditions than those specifications, and develop high-quality ozone-resistant materials.

The test results of vertical stiffness and horizontal stiffness for a total of 245 natural rubber bearings are given below. As it can be seen, 95 percent (Confidence Intervals) of all the measurement data are within a range of 40% of the design values for vertical stiffness and within 10% for horizontal stiffness. Conclusively, Kawakin has a high capability for material quality.

Kawakin s long-term experience and manufacturing capabilities is the guarantee of rubber material. The figures above represent the results of ozone resistance tests for two types of rubber materials according to International Standard (ISO 22762-2). Both of the test pieces satisfy the minimum standard values required in the Standards. Kawakin s test piece is, however, kept sound even under the stricter conditions while the other test piece is not.
