New French Invention email this discussion to a friend?

On the long drive down to our new location, I was flipping through radio channels. I came upon a talk radio show. Being bored, I stayed there and listened as the miles ticked away.

One of the things mentioned was a new French invention...self-healing rubber bands. You would never have to buy more just because your old ones broke. You would just pinch the broken ends back together and it would be good as new.This has me wondering how the rubber band industry will react if these things start to be manufactured.

Can you think of anything else that should be 'self-healing'? Or at least self-healing for awhile.

Even if such technology exists it will not be commercialised.The rubber industries will object that tooth and nail.
Only use that i can think of is in defense field

That's what I thought when I heard this. It WOULD be cool if the technology DID exist, though.

I'm sure as the first respondent sid, the industry will object strenuously to this idea. The idea has merit but I have to wonder, if the rubber is pliable enough to rebond with itself, how can it be strong enough to remain together and to hold things like electric cords or bundles of paper which rely on the tensile strength and elasticity of a strong rubber band. IF the rubber is malleable enough to be recconected, how can it be strong enough to withstand being broken in the first place? Perhaps a product such as this would be more usefulinthe condom industry?

Oh yes the condon industry
good thinking!
as long as it were strong enough that would be great

You bring up valid points. These aspects were not touched on during the show.

It WOULD be more useful in the condom industry. The manufacturers couldn't object, either. Those are one use only items anyway. Why not make them stronger? Maybe more people would use them with confidence.

self healing rubber bands?
Is that some sort of alien technology?
Do you realise what that sort of technology has the potential of?
It could revolutionalise alot of things
imagine if they could use that concept in biomedics?
That would be awesome!!


myLot reputation of 57/100. Ramoth (1047)   ranked 31 out of 36 in new technology  2 years ago

It might be alien technology. They didn't discuss that part on the show. But you're right. The potential is staggering.

Oh dear, you mean to tell me the French have done it again? I'm sorry, I shouldn't be this way but it seems to me that they are a very arrogant nation. They don't think anybody else has the ability to produce anything which is as good as they do, and if they do, they find some fault, and announce it to the World.

I think I'd better duck out of here before I say too much, but being a long-sufferer of the situation, especially whilst in the European Community, I have a dislike for these people. Brightest Blessings my friend and sorry I can't offer more to an otherwise interesting discussion. +

If you don't want to comment on the French invention, you can always comment on what you think should be a 'self-healing' item.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Darkwing (7519)   ranked 34 out of 36 in new technology  2 years ago

Oh cripes. I wouldn't know where to start. I'm not really an inventive type of person, I'm afraid, but thanks for the opportunity.:)
