Why do rubber bands become brittle when stored for a long time?

Morning, Friends Unique Facts! ๐Ÿ˜Š Have a nice day. Come on, start today with one simple fact.

Have you ever found a rubber band that has been stored for a long time and when you pull it it immediately breaks? Even though before it still looked good.

It turns out that rubber materials can change over time. Exposure to air, heat and light slowly weakens the rubber structure even if it is rarely used.

That's why rubber bands that are stored in a hot place usually brittle faster than those that are stored in a cool place.

So it's not because the quality is bad, but there is a natural process that makes rubber lose its elasticity little by little.

So, now if you find a rubber band that breaks easily, you already know the cause. ๐Ÿ˜„
