Rubber elasticity is an important sub-field of polymer science. This book is in many ways a sequel to the authors' previous, more introductory book, Rubberlike Elasticity: A Molecular Primer (Wiley-Interscience, 1988), and will in some respects replace the now classic book by L.R.G. Treloar, The Physics of Rubber Elasticity (Oxford, 1975). The present book has much in common with its predecessor, in particular its strong emphasis on molecular concepts and theories. Similarly, only equilibrium properties are covered in any detail. Though this book treats much of the same subject matter, it is a more comprehensive, more up-to-date, and somewhat more sophisticated treatment.

ABSTRACTA new technique which permits the successful preparation of ORMOSILS (Organically Modified Silicates) with rubbery elasticity has been developed. Common alkoxides were reacted with polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) and the microstructures were carefully controlled. Large monoliths of the porous rubbery ORMOSILS have been prepared. Gelation process was studied by 29Si liquid NMR spectroscopy. A structural model for rubber elasticity of ORMOSILS was proposed.

We adapt the theory of anisotropic rubber elasticity to model cross-linked double-twist liquid crystal cylinders such as exhibited in biological systems. In mechanical extension we recover strain-straightening, but with an...

Abstract From the experimental results of the present investigation, it is apparent that two kinds of networks which have a different three-dimensional network structure give quite different behavior of chemical stress relaxation, even if both networks have the same network chain density. The difference in three-dimensional network structure for the two kinds of rubber arises from the degree of entanglement, which changes with the concentration of the polymer chains prior to the crosslinking process. The direct cause of chemical relaxation is due to the scission of network chains by degradation, whereas the total relaxation is caused by the change of geometrical conformation of network chains. This then casts doubt on the basic concept of chemorheology which is represented by Equation 2.

Abstract Two cardinal problems exist in connection with the production of synthetic rubbers: (1) choice of the type of synthetics, necessary raw materials, and methods of production, and (2) evaluation of the products obtained. The most important and characteristic property of synthetics (and of natural rubbers) is their long-range reversible elasticity.
