Why rubber bands can not be sterilize by sterrad?

it is not if rubber bands can be sterilized in Sterrad, because they can. However, they should not be used to "tie something up where the rubber surfaces are compressed against one another. The main issue with rubber is that it does absorb hydrogen peroxide and holds it, reducing the amount of hydrogen peroxide for sterilizing the Maine targeted products. To much rubber and the cycle may cancel. The other aspect is that materials like rubber and some plastics will deteriorate quickly because of the oxidation effects during sterilization.

What rubber is made of?

Nowadays rubber is more commonly made from petroleum but it's also possible to make rubber from the latex extracted from trees (latex is pretty much just sap).Rubber is just a combination of polymers of isoprene units and other natural substances and impurities. It is a build up of the isoprene unit molecules and is not normally made up of other synthetic materials (although sometimes these materials are used to sythesise rubber). Natural rubber comes from the sap of the rubber tree. Today's rubber is mostly a synthetic, formed from substances like latex. jb real rubber comes from the sap of the rubber tree. synthetic rubber does not come from latex, but is made from oilRubber is naturally made from the sap of rubber trees.These grow in tropical climates such as Malaysia. We can also make synthetic rubbers, starting with substances from crude oil. Natural rubber has few uses in its untreated state, being a very soft substance. Examples include insulation and adhesives. Most rubber is hardened by the process of vulcanisation which cross links the molecules to make the substance harder. It then has many applications such as vehicle tyres, air hoses and rainwear.
