	How rubber band is made - Background, Raw materials, The manufacturing process of rubber band, Quality control
		Rubber bands are one of the most convenient products of the twentieth century, used by numerous individuals and industries for a wide variety of purposes.
		The rubber is then shipped to a rubber factory, where the slabs are machine cut into small pieces and mixed in a Banbury mixer with other ingredients—sulfur to vulcanize it, pigments to color it, and other chemicals to increase or diminish the elasticity of the resulting rubber bands.
		Rubber bands are a "mature product," for which the market is not growing as quickly as it did several years ago.

	Rubber Band
		The largest consumer of rubber bands in the world is the U.S. Post Office, which orders millions of pounds a year to use in sorting and delivering piles of mail.
		Rubber, which derives from plants that grow best in an equatorial climate, was first discovered by European explorers in the Americas, where Christopher Columbus encountered Mayan indians using water-proof shoes and bottles made from the substance.
		The word rubber was born in 1770, when an English chemist named Joseph Priestley discovered that hardened pieces of rubber would rub out pencil marks.

	Rubberbands
		Rubber products made from natural rubber latex used for medical treatment and examination are normally treated in an additional process of the production line in order to minimize the extractable protein content of the product.
		Yes, CEC rubber bands are considered safe in term of protein allergy for non-medical application because they are made of solid (dry) natural rubber and are further washed in steam and fresh water at the final stage of rubber band production in CEC.
		The rubber trees cultured in farms could induce a large amount of various proteins in order to protect themselves from various stresses such as repeated tapping and treatment with plant hormone by changing their physiological conditions besides the proteins involved in rubber biosynthesis.

	The Rubber Band, History of the rubber band.
		Rubber Band (n) - An elastic loop of natural or synthetic rubber used to hold objects together.

	Rubber Band Ligation
		The principle behind rubber band ligation technique is actually an ancient one – in 460 BC, Hippocrates wrote about a surgical procedure of ligating or tying a thread around the hemorrhoids to cause them to shrivel.
		Rubber band ligation works by using a constricting band to stop the blood flow into the hemorrhoids, thus causing them to shrivel and fall off along with the band.
		Rubber band ligation is not appropriate for treating third-degree piles or even bulky second-degree cases.

		Suggest that they measure the distance their rubber bands traveled from the nearest meter marking, adding the distance from that mark to the value of the mark itself.
		They should shoot the rubber band at double it’s length at rest, as soon as it is taken out of the ice water bath and record it’s distance.
		They should again shoot the rubber band at double it’s length at rest as soon as it is taken out of the hot water bath and record it’s distance.

	How to Make a Rubber Band Ball - wikiHow
		Start the rubber band ball by simply wrapping a single rubber band around a small marble until the band is tightly stuck around the marble.
		Take a small rubber band, and hold it in one hand, the paper in the other hand, as if you were going to tie the end of a braid.
		Try to use rubber bands that are almost too small to wrap around the ball at the very beginning (10cm - 50cm) for a very solid core for your bigger ball.

	Rubber Bands and Heat
		Hang one end of the rubber band from the wall or ceiling and suspend a weight from the other end of the rubber band.
		The weight should be heavy enough to stretch the rubber band, but not so heavy that it is likely to break the band.
		Heating the stretched rubber band causes segments of the molecules to move more vigorously, which can be represented by wiggling the middle of the string back and forth.

	Rubber Band Experiment
		The first is to remove some additive that may have been added to the rubber in manufacture to control its elasticity.
		Motor oil may be absorbed by the rubber band and cause it to swell and be lubricated.
		Rubber is a hydrocarbon, so any hydrocarbon liquid dissolves into it well, and will be a either a plasticizer or dissolver.

	Review: Firewheel rubber band gun
		Rubber band guns occupy a place in the aggressive-toy spectrum somewhere between M60s for children and hippy trippy bubble guns.
		Bands can pile up on top of each other and jam, bands can whip off the end of the barrel at angles that qualify as inaccurate even by RBG standards, and if you get it into your head that you want to, say, unload all of the bands in one magnificent shotgun blast, you can't.
		But even when you're just using the ordinary roughly-45mm-diameter "size 16" office rubber bands the Firewheel's designed to take (experimentation may be called for), you'll find the wheel quite hard to rotate for the last few bands.

	Rubber Band Ligation of Internal (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Rubber band ligation is a method of treating symptomatic internal hemorrhoids.
		Placement of a rubber band around a portion of a hemorrhoid causes it to lose its blood supply so that the tissue dies and falls off after 7-10 days.
		The tissue and rubber bands are passed with a bowel movement and usually are not seen.

	Change in Length of Rubber Band
		Suppose your rubber band was a "bungee cord", a bundle of rubber-bands wrapped in a braided fabric sleeve.
		Whenever it moves, whether stretching or contracting, the rubber is rubbing against the fabric from the inside, or perhaps the crossed fibers of the braided sleeve are rubbing on each other, with some normal force, and some force and energy is lost to sliding friction.
		Cordially, Jim Swenson ===================================================== Unless the rubber bands were very large, you probably exceeded the elastic limit of the rubber so that the rubber band was permanently deformed.

	Short History of the Concrete Rubber Band by Duncan Long
		The Concrete Rubber Band was a small, Kansas-based "Jesus Band" that performed from the late 1960s to early 1970s.
		Over the years the band practiced in my folk's living room and you could hear us halfway across town in the summer when the windows were open (keeping in mind that the town is only 5 blocks wide - ha).
		We started out thinking "Rubber Band" would be memorable since that was already a household word and sort of played on the idea of the group being a band.

		the tension of the band decreases at lower temperatures, so the band can do less work in contracting from a given stretched to its relaxed length because the contraction is less forceful.
		Measure the length of the relaxed band at room temperature and at freezer temperature.
		Hang a weight from the band and measure its stretched length at room and freezer temperatures.
