A customer recently submitted a container anti-slip mat (rubber granulate / polymer-rubber material) to evaluate its frictional performance.
This type of material is widely used to prevent cargo movement during transportation, especially in containers, trucks, and logistics applications.
🔬 Test Standard
ASTM D1894 – Standard Test Method for Static and Kinetic Coefficient of Friction
⚙️ What We Evaluate
• Static COF (μs) – resistance to initial movement
• Dynamic COF (μd) – resistance during sliding motion
📊 Test Results
• μs = 1.026
• μd = 0.823
📌 Technical Insight
A high static COF (>1.0) indicates strong resistance to slip at initial contact, which is critical to prevent cargo from shifting during loading or sudden movement.
The dynamic COF reflects behavior once movement begins — ensuring the material still provides controlled friction and stability during transport vibrations.
