RUBBER: A material that can be extended to in any event twice its unique length and will withdraw quickly and coercively to generously its unique endless supply of the power. BRIEF HISTORY ON RUBBER: Rubber has been around for a very long time. Thousands of years ago ancient people of Central America used Rubber balls in their games.

Natural rubber also known as india rubber. It is made by the juice of a tree, which is coagulated using acetic acid, smoked and dried. Natural rubber consist of polymers of the organic compound isoprene with some organic compound and water. Natural rubber are used in many applications and products. This is because natural rubber contain large stretch ratio and high resilience and it is waterproof. Rubber have unique physical properties and chemical properties. Rubber’s stress strain is modelled as

How does the elasticity of a rubber band change in different temperatures? Rubber can be made with two things: synthetic rubber and natural rubber. 75% of rubber today is made of synthetic rubber, created during WWII. Natural rubber is made from the rubber tree, the rubber tree’s scientific name is Hevea Brasiliensis. They are primarily found on plantations in Southeast Asia and tropical West Africa.

solutions to social and environmental problems (Francesch-Huidobro & Woo, 2009), Green Rubber Global (GRG) was established around the invention of an environmentally friendly reactant and process to recycle rubber (refer to appendix 1). DeLink, the reactant, can be used to break down

The intent of existing investigation was to formulate nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR)/high density polyethylene blends (HDPE) blends using industrial waste (MW) and compatibilized by Chloroprene rubber (CR). Results indicated that the minimum and maximum torque increased with increasing HDPE amount in the blends, whereas scorch, and cure time showed the decreasing trend. Increment in HDPE increased the tensile strength, modulus, tear strength, hardness and crosslink density. % tensile strain, % compression
