A rubber band also known as an elastic band gum band or lacky band is a loop of rubber usually ring shaped and commonly used to hold multiple objects together the rubber band was patented in england on march 17 1845 by stephen perry.
Rubber is water repellent and resistant to alkalies and weak acids.
The main chemical constituents of rubber are elastomers or elastic polymers large chainlike molecules that can be stretched to great lengths and yet recover their original shape the first common elastomer was polyisoprene from which natural rubber is made formed in a living organism natural rubber consists of solids suspended in a milky fluid called latex that circulates in the.
