• Mode III fatigue test
• Peel test
• Crack growth
• Tearing energy

Crack growth plays an important role in the durability of tires, and it is necessary to evaluate the characteristics of crack growth and tearing energy accurately. Since a crack around the belt edge is subjected mainly to interlaminar shear deformation, a Mode III fatigue test method was developed. In addition, a peel test method was developed to assess the tearing energy. Based on the fatigue and peel test results, the effects of heat aging, temperature and belt stiffness were analyzed.
