Yes, It is possible to vulcanize rubber in a home oven. You would still need Metal mold frames, metal covers for the mold frames and metal clamps to hold it all together. there are various kinds of rubber, some are very temerature-sensitive and will not provide good results in a home oven, and some are more forgiving and can give good results. the key is to calibrate your oven - use a thermometer to measure the oven's temperature and do not rely on the oven's buttons/gauges.
as a thumb rule - the shrinking kinds are more forgiving and the non-shrinking kinds require more accurate temperature settings, but the bottom line is - Yes You Can!

A compoundof numerous elements.Silicon: The metal, the element, the atom. A metalloid.Yes, this misinformation, the misuse of the terms is very common, and for some reason, product labelling, educational television programs, teachers, and so on, are just as likely to misuse the terms.
