<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 2118454, member: 33176"]Yes, it is the composition of the rubber band. Natural rubber has to be "vulcanized" which involves treating it with sulfur to cross-link the molecules and make it useable. It doesn't even have to be a gas. If you slap a polished piece of lead together with a polished piece of gold, you can detect gold that has migrated into the lead and vice-versa. A superior material for flips might be the plastic "saran", but I don't know if anyone makes them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
