What are the physical properties of elastomeric rubber polymer vulcanized rubber?
For one thing, rubber is elastic, meaning that it can endure much stretching without snapping under the tension. So far, that is the only property I can find online. I hope I was of some assistance.
The molecules of polyisoprene present in rubber form in coils with a few links between coil levels. This allows the molecules to rotate freely around each other and return to their original shape....
