So what can one say about rubber elasticity without math? 1. At a constant temperature, and for elongations not too large, a rubber band obeys Hooke's Law: The force, f = - K(X - Xo) where K is a constant, (X - Xo) is the elongation and the sign in negative because the force is in the direction opposite to the extension.

Does cold temperature affect the elasticity of a rubber band? Asked by: Kimberley ; Answer; Yes--a rubber band will actually become softer, or easier to stretch, when the temperature gets colder. The way to think of the elasticity is in terms of entropy, which is basically a measure of disorder.

Introduction: Rubber, paint and glue are three of the most commonly used polymers. Like most plastics, polymers often change when exposed to heat. Such changes may include melting, deformation, discoloration and other changes in the physical and mechanical ... How does temperature affect the elasticity of rubber?

The basis of rubber elasticity is the Gaussian chain and most descriptions are limited by this framework. Despite this limitation the description of the elasticity of a polymer chain is one of the major success stories of polymer science.

I would think for no bounce you would need a very soft rubber. go back to the hydrospan link from 4\29 that company sells all types of stuff. I noticed on there they had some rubber shore A of 5 that they made for vibration dampening pads.

We present an experimental approach to discriminate hyper-elastic models describing the mechanical behavior of rubber-like materials. An evaluation of the displacement field obtained by digital image correlation allows us to evaluate the heterogeneous strain field observed during these tests.
