CHAPTER 33 Mechanical Properties OF RUBBERR onald J. SchaeferINTRODUCTIONR ubber is a unique material that is both elastic and viscous. Rubber parts can there-fore function as shock and vibration isolators and/or as dampers. Although the termrubberis used rather loosely, it usually refers to the compounded and vulcanizedmaterial. In the raw state it is referred to as an forms chem-ical bonds between adjacent elastomer chains and subsequently imparts dimen-sional stability, strength, and resilience. An unvulcanized rubber lacks structuralintegrity and will flow over a period of has a low modulus of elasticity and is capable of sustaining a deformationof as much as 1000 percent. After such deformation, it quickly and forcibly retractsto its original dimensions. It is resilient and yet exhibits internal damping. Rubbercan be processed into a variety of shapes and can be adhered to metal inserts ormounting plates.
