Tensile Strength and Elongation Testing – ABNT NBR 8615

Tensile or rupture strength of flexible foam is the ratio between the force required to break it and the dimensions of the sample, expressed in kPa. Elongation, in turn, measures the foam’s stretch until rupture, expressed as a percentage (%).

Tear Resistance Testing – ABNT NBR 8616

This test measures the tear resistance in N/m offered by a foam sample when subjected to tensile force. It serves as a parameter to evaluate the foam’s suitability for applications where it may be exposed to shear and tensile conditions.

The test involves applying a tensile force to a standardized cut sample.
