Rubber is affected by sunlight primarily due to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can degrade its chemical structure over time. This exposure leads to a process called photodegradation, causing the rubber to become brittle, lose elasticity, and develop cracks. Additionally, heat from the sun can accelerate these effects, further compromising the material's integrity. To mitigate these impacts, rubber products are often treated with UV stabilizers or coated with protective layers.

What does heat do to rubber?
When left out in the sun rubber will loose some of its elasticity or crack, the ink will lose some color, and paper will be bleached or become whiter. This occurs because of the action of the ultraviolet light of the sun.
