Industry
Industry, 'Industrial dispute' and 'workman' taken in the extended significance, or exclude it. Though the word 'undertaking' in definition of industry is wedged in between business and trade on the one hand and manufacture on the other, and though therefore it might mean only a business or trade undertaking, still it must be remembered that if that were so, there was no need to use the word separately from business or trade. The wider import is attracted even more clearly when we look at the latter part of the definition which refers to 'calling, service, employment, or industrial occupation of, avocation of workman. 'Undertak-ing' in the first part of the definition and 'industrial occupation or avocation in the second part obviously mean much more than what is ordinarily understood by trade or business.

Rubber
Rubber, rubber is described in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, Volume 19, 1965 edition: Rubber the substance caoutchouc (q.v.), a milklike fluid that is obtained from certain tropical shrubs or tyres and then subjected to various processes of manufacture; or it may be a product of chemical synthesis. The uniqueness of rubber lies in its physical properties of extensibility and toughness. In its natural state, it is greatly affected by temperature, becoming harder when cooled (at 0 x-10 x C it is opaque) and softer when heated (above 50x C it becomes tackier and less elastic, decomposing into liquid form at 190 x-200x C). When vulcanized (i.e. heated with sulfur at 120 x-160 x C) it loses its thermoplasticity and becomes stronger and more elastic..... Chemically, rubber is a polymer of isoprene..... The term synthetic rubber is used to describe an evergrowing number of elastic materials, some of which closely resemble natural rubber while others have completely different physical properti...
