What are natural and synthetic polymers?
A natural polymer would be rubber which is obtained from nature. A synthetic polymer would be polybutadiene which behaves like rubber.
Are basketball biodegradable?
If the ball is made from a rubber based polymer, which I would assume it is due to elasticity, then it is NOT biodegradable.
What polymer are balloons made of?
Balloons are made up of a polymer, rubber. the reason for rubber being used in making of balloons is that rubber is an example of an elastomer type polymer, where the polymer has the ability to return to its original shape after being stretched or deformed. The rubber polymer is coiled when in the resting state. The elastic properties arise from the its ability to stretch the chains apart, but when the tension is released the chains snap back to the original position.
What is natural rubber commonly used for?
Natural rubber, or gum rubber, is made from latex. A LOT of rubber available today is synthetic, made from petroleum. And a large amount of the gum rubber contains a percentage of synthetic rubber.
What type of compound is a polyamide?

Does polymer powder smell bad?
not usually, but would depend on the polymer
What is raw rubber called?
Rubber is made from extract of SAP tree Natural rubber, also called India rubber or caoutchouc, is an elastomer (an elastic hydrocarbon polymer) that was originally derived from latex, a milky colloid produced by some plants. The plants would be 'tapped', that is, an incision made into the bark of the tree and the latex sap collected and refined into a usable rubber. The purified form of natural rubber is the chemical polyisoprene, which can also be produced synthetically. Natural rubber is used extensively in many applications and products, as is synthetic rubber.
What is the opposite of superficial?
I think it would be down to earth or Natural I think natural is the best word to describe it
Why is rubber important?
it's funny...people don't really think rubber as an important substance, but, without it you would be ...well...probably dead
