Vulcanized in a sentence as an adjective

Old rubber tires get shredded and vulcanized into new products.

Lets think about this though, how are you going to print a vulcanized rubber tire? How are you going to print an engine block, a car body, and a windshield?

Tires are not feasible without vulcanized rubber. Rubber that is not vulcanized turns soft when hot, and when it's cold, it hardens and cracks.

Can vulcanized rubber be broken down by something like Hydrous pyrolysis?

That plus the effects of poisonous exhaust and vulcanized rubber eroding from tires seems to me to be "reckless disregard". > Cars have such enormous benefits...

Consider the patent on making vulcanized rubber. It came out of scientific discovery and depends on chemical "laws", but isn't any of those things.

The explorer mindset is how scientists discovered penicillin, x-rays, and vulcanized rubber. Science isn't as cut and dry as the scientific method suggests.

I don't care that Nike uses vulcanized rubber and cotton, I care that my friends will think they look cool, and thus make me look cool. So they focus on communicating that value proposition rather than an info dump about the product.

Not to mention the discovery of vulcanized rubber. You can't have an industrial revolution without hoses, gaskets, and tires.

My guess is that Dell laptops have incorrectly vulcanized rubber. During vulcanization, sulfur compounds are added to rubber to make it more elastic.

Right, and the tires of an EV still shed carbon, and if that weren't bad enough, you will still have to change the wiper blades, which are made of vulcanized rubber that can't be recycled. And think of the VOC emissions from the windshield wiper fluid; if a kid drinks that stuff, they can go blind!

Also, while I can see various synthetic tires being an issue, is vulcanized natural rubber actually a problem? It’s starting off as tiny particles which should degrade fairly quickly.

Has anyone done analysis on microplastics to figure out what percentage are from vulcanized rubber? It's probably a high percentage, but would be nice to have an actual scientific study on the figure.

Sulphur Dioxide emissions from vulcanized rubber might actually be beneficial to the environment if it's released in the stratosphere.

Charles Goodyear, the inventor of vulcanized rubber, wrote in his memoir, "Inventors are the children of misfortune and want." Goodyear himself suffered unbelievable hardships during his life, even after making one of the greatest discoveries of the nineteenth century.

As I note in another post, the two specific advances that really made the bicycle possible were advanced metalurgy and vulcanized pneumatic tyres. Both of these weren't particularly feasible until they actually emerged.

Abstract_id=1457848 The paper argues that patents recognizing the inventions of vulcanized rubber, sewing machines, and incandescent lightbulbs, for example, were all valuable ideas. Violating these patents would have destroyed the ability of the inventor to profit from the years of work necessary to invent them.

Meh. It is a bunch grown men with sticks chasing a black piece of rubber around a sheet of ice" When somebody says that, you just have to rephrase them a'la T-Rex. "It's a bunch of scientists stating their hypothesis that they're the best at using wooden sticks to direct the motion of a vulcanized rubber puck across a surface with a friction coefficient of .15!" [1] and then hockey becomes a collaborative science experiment, repeated twice a week, and broadcast on television.
