    Natural rubber [poly-cis-isoprene(C5H8)n]. the latex consists of a polymer colloid of a monomer called isoprene. The precipitation of the rubber particles from the latex produces an elastic, sticky, gummy mass. In 1839, Charles Goodyear found that by vulcanising (ie. Cross-linking the polymer chains) the natural rubber a non sticky elastic was produced. This vulcanised natural rubber soon became used in a wide variety of products including tyres, insulation, matresses and rainwear. Rubber production could not keep up with demand, especially from the vehicle industry. A synthetic replacement was needed. And today synthetic polymer production accounts for 80% of the worlds rubber production.…

    Curled Metals Case

    Curled Metal Inc. (CMI) specializes in selling metal-based products to various markets. With over $55 million in annual sales (FY 2007, Exhibit A), they’ve managed to capture 80% of the automobile industry’s market share by developing and selling a highly specialized product, Slip Seal, designed just for auto manufacturers. They’ve seen a recent slip in sales (a loss of nearly 10% from 2006 to 2007, Exhibit 2), and the pressure is on them to diversify their product line and decrease dependence on the auto industry. They’ve recently developed a new product that aims to revolutionize the pile-driving industry. The introduction of the CMI Cushion Pad has the ability to change the entire industry for its consumers; some of its more prominent features include the capabilities to significantly lower labor and equipment costs, decrease the total amount of pads being used (effectively eliminating waste), and reduce environmental safety concerns amongst the workforce due to the non-toxicity of the pads’ material. CMI has recently conducted two field testings of its Cushion Pads, with incredible results: the new product performed better than expected at both test sites (Kendrick Foundation Company and Corey Construction). Kendrick was so pleased with the Cushion Pads that they’ve asked CMI to quote prices. CMI is now faced with identifying the best price for this product.…

    Ixcanul is a quietly painful movie on the love and betrayal, hope and disappointment, resistance and defeat, but most importantly it is a story Jayro Bustamante tells us about Kaqchikel culture. The movie pictures the life of the Kaqchikel, the indigenous Maya people living on the slopes of volcano in Guatemala as both brutal and sadly beautiful. The lack of embellishments, short yet insightful dialogues, slow pace and realistic, detailed account of surroundings and characters produced an extremely authentic and appealing film. Director’s intentional emphasis on reality and Maria’s mostly nonverbal nevertheless poignant self-expression made the movie particularly fascinating for me.…
