to add rubber or not?

    Types of Rubber 

     

    Styrene butadiene rubber (SBR)
    General purpose rubber made up of different types; better abrasion resistance, lower elasticity, poorer low-temperature behavior, better heat and aging resistance, excellent electrical insulation material similar to rubber

    Polybutadiene rubber (BR)
    Poor processing properties mean that BR is not used on its own, blended with SBR or NR, abrasion-resistant, good elasticity, flexible at low temperatures.

    Isoprene rubber (IR)
    Properties largely comparable with natural rubber, more uniform, cleaner, transparent.

    Acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR)
    Oil and fuel resistant, good heat distortion temperature properties, abrasion resistant.

    Chloroprene rubber (CR)
    Flame retardant, resistant to grease, oil, weathering and aging, abrasion resistant.

    Butyl rubber (IIR)
    Low permeability to gases, resistant to aging, ozone and chemicals, good mechanical properties, abrasion resistant, good electrical insulation properties.

     

    * i combined the uses of each rubber togather and listed them below

     

    USES (would do all or most of these things combined)  

     

    -absorb pressure 

    -nonconduction of electricity

    -resistance to moisture 

    -insulator

    -impermeable to gases

    -Flammable (ONLY IF 320°C is exceeded)

    -Disapeers like goo when exposed to radiation (LIGHT)

    -would normally be stretchy but since you can't make it stretchy i figured that it would slightly grow with heat and slightly shrink with the cold making it kind of flexible.

     

    I WOULD LIKE POSITIVE COMMENTS ONLY :)

    I'm sorry, but this is just pressure proof INSL

    You should totally stop suggesting elements that combine two other elements, like goo metal or titanium insulator or solid DEUT, which yours are.
    Plus, expecting only "positive" comments is no way to suggesting. You're turning a blind eye on rational minds critically analyzing your suggestions and therefore lessening the chance of approval.

    Could you just make a single rubber element? You don't need ten elements to do this.

    That's what I was thinking. Just combine them instead of making 6 different but very alike elements :/

    I think it is a good idea.  YOu would not need lots of different materials to get these resaults

    Rename this thread to "to add needless crap everyone rejected before or not?"

    Why are we taking up 6 element slots for 6 different types of rubber? I'm pretty sure there are different type of 'metal' out there, doesnt mean we have to add them all.

    Besides as tommig said, this is just INSL, we dont need 2 elements that do the exact same thing except for 1 minor difference.

    Bunchie Approves.YAY! looks good so shut up negative people rubber is good >:(

    Brilliant people.  He was giving EXAMPLES!  Now please stop being negative,it would help.

     Dude, this is literary just Titanum with Insulator. It can be done very easily.

     

    We must stop and ask the big questions: Who are we? How did life start? Are we alone? and, most importantly, Why do we need this elememt added into The Powder Toy?!?
