Fire Properties of Railway Rubber Products
RADZISZEWSKA-WOLIŃSKA Jolanta and ŚWIETLIK Aneta
download PDFAbstract. The article discusses the use of rubber elements in rail vehicles and their desired functional properties. Then, the requirements for materials in the field of fire safety as well as fire test results for individual groups of rubber products are presented. Next, the directions and results of modifications of elastomer mixtures for railway elements are discussed.
