What is an rubber stopper in laboratory?
Because they are not expensive, can assure a convenable sealing, are flexible, resist a long time, many reagents doesn't attack rubber, can support temperature in a wide range, the contaminatiom from the rubber is minimal, etc. Of course rubber stoppers are not recommended for all experiments.

How does a rubber plant reproduce?
You simply drill a hole into the bark of the tree, and place a collection cup underneath the 'wound' - it allows a small amount of sap to be released, and seals itself over time.
How silicone removes?
"Goo Gone"! I left some rubber strips, heavily covered in thick silicone, in the tub while I was doing some maintenance work. The strips had good time to cure themselves to the tub, I had left them there for 2 days. Obviously not thinking about the sticky mess it would make in the tub. I scraped off the top layer with a hard plastic silicone remover tool (not so great). It removed the thick top layer. I was left with a sticky mess that just wouldn't come off. I sprayed the tub with "Goo Gone", an orange based house hold cleaner. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and I was able to remove the sticky mess with nothing but a dry rag. No damage to the tub, metal or knife scratches, and hardly any muscle or effort. Great stuff, it's in the house hold cleaner isles.

How do you make sticky rubber normal?
baby powder. Once the rubber deteriorates, there is no satisfactory method to "cure" it, except to have the component replaced. The following, however, are some suggestions that are commonly put forward: 1. Strip away the rubber coating altogether, if you can live with that! Some have reported success in using alcohol to strip away the rubber, taking care not to damage the surfaces on surrounding components. Or simply peel it off bit by bit. 2. Use talc or baby powder to apply to the sticky surface (Caution: this will not work for long! And don't use on cameras with sticky rubber backs--the powder will get into the camera and spoil it). 3. Use diluted ammonia or Windex to wipe the sticky surface away (but result is not permanent). 4. Check those who sell supplies for rubber boats, and get a special paint that will coat over the rubber to treat it. 5. I had success using a little paint thinner to remove the stickiness on some rubber cables. The thinner is applied onto a cloth and using it to rub on the sticky surface until the stickiness is gone. The stickiness, I suspect, was due to contact with masking tape, which reacts with the rubber after being on it for a long time. This was the most successful experience with treating sticky rubber surfaces thus far.

Why does rubber bend?
rubber is not strong on its own but when it is vulcanised,i.e.,heated with sulphur to a definite temperaturefor a known period of time,it becomes strong because sulphur atoms act as bridges between rubber molecules, initiate cross-linking and convert the soft sticky rubber into a hard, elastic mass which can be put to extensive uses such as use in tyres,etc Because it is elastic.
How much does it cost to make a rubber band?
It depends on how big you want the ball to be. You can probably make a reasonable sized one with 100-200 rubber bands. One of the big bags you can find in an office supply store would probably be enough to start out with.
How do you put rubber bands on braces?
Well, Rubber bands are given to you by your orthodontist. If they showed you how to do it, and you can't remember, or they didn't take the time to show you, here is how to attach them. First of all, you need the small rubber bands from your orthodontist. Now you hook it on one of the hooks, and stretch it gently to the next hook. If you can't do it with your fingers, try using tweezers, because it can reach in small areas. Make sure you wash your hands first, and take them out before eating! Good Luck!

How do you make a fidget ball?
You start out with a rubber band, then you take your index finger and, after stretching it, twist the rubber band around it by wrapping it around the finger and turning it upside down and repeat until it feels secure, next, simply roll it off the finger with your other index finger and thumb, then you just start wrapping other rubber bands around it until it gets big enough. It takes a lot of time, and a lot of rubber bands. (I've made one over 3" in diameter! It took around 500 bands, and over a month, but it really helps with stress!) It is easier to use a crumpled paper or a pebble as the core for the ball, but this means it won't be completely made out of rubber bands. (Mine is nothing but rubber bands!) Make sure you have good, stretchy rubber bands so they can fit around the ball when it's big. You will need to double or even triple up your rubber bands when the ball is small. Good luck beating the world record of 5' in diameter!
