How do you calculate points for a tensile strength versus composition graph?
"Ultimate Tensile strength", is measured as the number of Kilogram of force needed to fracture a 'unit' of Area of the material. If you choose to use the Units of Kg for the force , and the Unit of Square Cm for the area; then the answer will be in Kilogram per Square Centimetre. You will now realise that it is NOT practical to measure tensile strength of paper because paper is extremely thin and it is not possible to make a piece of paper with an area of 1cmX 1 cm. Paper is usually about one twentieth of a mm thick. However, it you cut a strip of paper exactly 1 cm wide, from a telephone book with the pages clamped very tightly together between 2 strips of wood, and the stack of strips were exactly 1 cm thick; then you would have an area of SOLID paper which would be 1 cm X 1 cm. Now hang weights on it until it breaks apart. The Tension you created on the 1 square cm would be your answer. Different types and qualities of paper will give very different results. In the same way , different types of steel have very different Tensile Strengths. Talk to an Engineer and he will explain the different between 'Ultimate' tensile strength, and 'Safe Working' tensile strength. Steel is an Elastic substance just like rubber, but it Ultimately stops stretching and breaks when its Ultimate tensile strength is reached.
What is compressive strength of rubber?
The compressive strength of natural rubber is 30MPa.
What is converor belting made from?
A conveyor belting is made from rubber, with tensile members being made of textile or steel.
What is the ultimate tensile stress of a rubber band?
You must hang weights from a rubberband until it snaps;then divide the total weight by twice the cross-sectional area of the rubber band. ThisÊwill be the Êtensile load of the rubber band.
Why was vulcanized rubber important?
rubber was not very useful until vulcanisation was discovered . this process can improve its elasticity and strength .
Why do tires have threads?
The threads inside a tyre help to give the rubber more strength, particulary tensile strength. Or do you mean treads?
What is rubbers ultimate tensile strength?
It depends on rubber type but it is typical around 1000 psi (6.9MPa)
Do gummy worms have a high tensile strength?
No, because you can pull them apart. Materials like steel, that cannot easily be pulled apart, have a high tensile strength. The tensile strength of a material is the maximum amount of tensile stress that it can be subjected to before failure. Having what can I think can best be described as a rubbery consistency, gummi worms (the word gummi comes from the German for 'rubber') can be easily pulled apart by hand and therefore have a very low tensile strength.
Does metal float on jelly like substance?
Rather depends on the tensile strength of the elastic material. Sponge rubber or a jello will support quite a weight. There is no exact answer to this question.
Why will a balloon pop if left in a car on a hot day?
The air within the balloon will heat up and expand past the point of tensile strength of the rubber the balloon is made of. POP!!
Is natural rubber cellular rubber or non cellular rubber?
Difference Between Natural Rubber And Vulcanized RubberNatural rubber Vulcanized rubber(1) Natural rubber is soft and sticky Vulcanized rubber is hard and non-sticky. (2) It has low tensile strength. It has high tensile strength. (3) It has low elasticity. It has high elasticity. (4) It can be used over a narrow range of temperature (from 10° to 60°C). It can be used over a wide range of temperature (–40° to 100°C). (5) It has low wear and tear resistance. It has high wear and tear resistance. (6) It is soluble in solvents like ether, carbon, tetrachloride, petrol, etc. It is insoluble in all the common solvents.

What is compressive strength of rubber?
The compressive strength of natural rubber is 30MPa.
Which of the rubbers have low swelling low solubility good tensile strength and abrasion resistance?
the characteristics you are describing seem to best fit tire rubber, which is Polyurethane. it goes under the trademarks Adiprene, Estane, Genthane
Does humidity affect the strength of rubber bands?
Humidity really has no effect on the strength of rubber bands, but temperature does. Heat and cold affects the structure, strength, and elasticity of rubber bands.
What is timing belt made of?
Mostly rubber with high-tensile fibers made of fiberglass or Kevlar.
What is importance of carbon black in the rubber compound?
Carbon black is an important ingredient in rubber compounds as it enhances the mechanical properties of rubber, such as tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and tear resistance. It also improves the durability and longevity of rubber products, making them more resistant to wear and aging. Additionally, carbon black provides UV protection by absorbing and dissipating UV radiation, which helps prevent rubber from deteriorating due to exposure to sunlight.
