time‚ chemists took on the challenge of developing synthetic replacements for rubber. Two primary motivating factors prompted their research. First‚ the war effort required most of the available rubber for building equipment. Second‚ the price of rubber was unstable and it fluctuated frequently. Developing an alternative to rubber could solve both of these problems. At first‚ their goal was to develop a durable elastic strand based on synthetic polymers. In 1940‚ the first polyurethane elastomers

Major changes came to the textile industry during the 20th century‚ with continuing technological innovations in machinery‚ synthetic fibre‚ logistics‚ and globalization of the business. The business model that had dominated the industry for centuries was to change radically. Cotton and wool producers were not the only source for fibres‚ as chemical companies created new synthetic fibres that had superior qualities for many uses‚ such as rayon‚ invented in 1910‚ and DuPont’s nylon‚ invented in 1935 as

devulcanization technology researchers and developers were identified throughout the world‚ however‚ only a very small number of devulcanization systems are now operating. These are primarily small-capacity systems‚ which are devulcanizing natural or synthetic rubbers (as opposed to devulcanizing the mixture of rubbers recovered from waste tires). The general types of devulcanization technologies identified and analyzed in the study are shown below. Technology Basis of Processing Zone of Reaction

The Singularity: Many of the most recognized writers on the singularity‚ such as Vernor Vinge and Ray Kurzweil‚ define the concept in terms of the technological creation of superintelligence‚ and argue that it is difficult or impossible for present-day humans to predict what a post-singularity would be like‚ due to the difficulty of imagining the intentions and capabilities of superintelligent entities .A good way to understand the singularity is to imagine explaining the internet to somebody living

it reinforcement. I have a ten million peso budget for the next quarter to spend for buying two important materials in manufacturing tires‚ Natural Rubber and Carbon Black. Natural rubber is the basic elastomer used in tire manufacturing then synthetic rubber is often added by manufacturers to reduce cost. To avoid loss of quality‚ Carbon Black is then added which gives the final product reinforcement and abrasion resistance‚ it forms a high percentage of the rubber compound. Both can only be bought
