The Rubber Division of the American Chemical Society is an international association of chemists, engineers, technicians, scientists, plant managers, sales and marketing professionals and others in the rubber, polymer or related fields within industry, academia and government. We work to educate, connect and grow the evolving elastomer industry through educational, technical, business and networking activities. The organization is a Division of the American Chemical Society and was founded in 1909. We are well-known for our year-long educational opportunities, International Elastomer Conference, Spring Technical Meeting and the prestigious Rubber Chemistry & Technology journal.

The next time you break a rubber specimen in the common tensile stress-strain test, hold the fracture surface up to the light and see if there is a shiny ring-like region. For more details, check out a paper Lewis Tunnicliffe, William Mars, and I published last year in Rubber Chemistry and Technology: https://lnkd.in/gHFkbKAv (open access) Interesting side note: I suggested to Lewis that it would be good to capture a few images of the fracture surfaces for the purpose of proving that low-strength fractures of some specimens were due to glass beads introduced into the rubber as model defects. A short while later he showed me microscopy images that he captured for all 200 broken specimens (!!!), which led us to discover the fracture rings.
