Abstract

Abstract The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the melting of crystalline rubber has been the subject of a brief investigation extending to pressures above 1,000 atmospheres. With a particular sample of stark rubber, it was found possible to raise the temperature of meltings as determined by the disappearance of birefringence, from about 36° to 70° C by the application of a pressure of 1,170 bars (1,170×105 dynes per sq. cm.). The results, including observations at intermediate pressures, can be represented adequately by the equation: log10 (p+1,300)=5.9428−(875/T).
